Many mass killings arise bc disturbed person w/sexuality problems (gay AND straight) seek attention thru violence. Is FBI blind to most?

The logic carries here to extra suspicion of anyone who has personal issues. Invitation for stereotyping.

No. The logic carries to extra suspicion for people who are violent. Again, stop ignoring that part of my tweet.

I see the nuance and don't see how it helps. Or are you saying we screen known violent people for mental disturbances?

I'm saying the people who commit mass shootings in this country are mentally disturbed men w/past expression of violence.

Again, I'm NOT saying go after the haystack. I'm asking if FBI won't ID a needle IN HAND bc it's not the needle they're looking for.

I don't see how that practically shakes out to be different. "We have this loose profile" still seems to be driving

"Oh, your violent statements and actions aren't specifically Muslim? Well, okay then, carry on."

Not excluding someone b/c of nonIslamist terrorism seems wise. But that isn't contingent on the male/violence/disturbance thing

Huh? You're suggesting we should just give up trying to find mass killers?
