Wow, I don't know. I mean a part of me says that these people are glory hogs. They think that they're earning a place in history by killing a lot of people.
But the big argument against that is that they're not going to care because they usually die either through suicide, or suicide via Cops.
Pure and simple this to me is a rage deflection issue. They put the faces of their problems on the people that they shoot, and it gives them a sense of control over their problems and an out for their rage. so except for probably a small percentage, this to me isn't about fame. Its about anger.
