I agree about it possibly being a mental health problem, but I don't agree with the causes. Canada is very similar in those aspects yet the US has a seemingly out of proportion mass shooting problem. I honestly don't know why. I do wonder though that people with severe mental problems are falling through the cracks greater in the US than other countries.
