Aurora movie shooter was inspired by a villain in Batman movies. Young, troubled men with guns find "inspiration".https://twitter.com/JosephKYoung/status/741993044635947008 …

ISIS carries out systematic terrorism in Muslim countries. Soccer stadiums in Iraq, tourist areas in Turkey. USA so far: "loon" lone wolves.

Not downplaying mass political violence. It's destroying the Middle East. But US has different problem; troubled people with access to guns.

Aurora shooter was inspired by a villain in Batman. My point is this is a distinctly American phenomenon. ISIS in MENA is different.
