The FBI just released their profile of active shooters: https://www.fbi.gov/file-repository/pre-attack-behaviors-of-active-shooters-in-us-2000-2013.pdf/view
The FBI: "There were very few demographic patterns or trends (aside from gender), reinforcing the concept there is no one profile of an active shooter."

Just admit it's disaffected white dudes the vast majority of the time :P
@malice Dissaffected dudes, yes. White, no. That is simply a demographic representative of the overall population.
China, Japan and Korea have the same problem for instance. It's still dissaffected dudes who feel powerless and that they have no other recourse, it may be knives instead of guns, but the numbers won't be overwhelmingly white.
Check the article I posted to Liz earlier today on Hunter S Thompson's predictions - that's at the core of all of this, just on an individual level.
