Intense white male entitlement in response to alienation or severe upset can be an incubator for violence.

I used to work in a rural court system when i was clerking for a judge. It's not about guns or alienation, but about the white, entitled reaction to not getting one's way. Where there's nobody around who'll question that entitled world view, it just intensifies.

You'd be surprised by the shocking incidents, mostly sans-guns. Disappointed that you lost your custody fight with your daughter-in-law? Head over with duct tape, gasoline, and horse tranquilizer - if you can't have those kids, NOBODY can. You can't make some of this crap up.
