We will likely never know. We still don't know why Charles Whitman did what he did 52 years ago, either.

I've got some ideas. None of them are comforting.

I'm starting with Occam's Razer, and going with "one of life's losers getting even for something in his head that the rest of us will never know about"

A straight up nihilist is the worst possible answer. I hope that's not it.

Nihilism is an actual belief (oddly). I think this is one of those guys who lashed out at a gathering of happy people because in his mind (for reasons I'm sure he thought were unjust) he could never be part of a gathering of happy people. Not everything has a reason or a plot.
-
I'm not disagreeing with that. I'm saying for a sane person to conclude that this was what he wanted to do for no other reason than "meh" is deeply troubling. I would rather there be a reason and plot.
-
Oh, I get that, and I'm with you there. We always want there to be a reason. Nothing is more terrifying than the guy who just wants to watch the world burn. But the losers have their reasons somewhere in the angry echo chambers of their heads. Just not ones that make sense.

Meanwhile leftist Democrats forget them pushing on lies for power. Trump had the decency to remember victims in his great trade news.
