If you have ever hit a person when you were angry, have had a problem because of jealousy, find yourself in heated arguments often or find yourself seeking revenge against someone that has done you wrong. Don't own a gun. I think almost everyone of the recent shooting involved a person with some sort of anger problem. As depression is sometimes attributed to anger turned inward, that may also be a signal.
