The media never calls this situation for what it is.

A neglected (at least) and outcast child, from a broken home, had no healthy role models or supports in their life. That kind of pain can turn you inward and make you resentful and envious of happiness that you are denied; kids can’t be expected to be emotionally mature enough to handle that. They need support.

And then, of course, Jesse found a lunatic to connect with that accepted them in insanity.

But yes, gun control and more online surveillance, please. Lets just ignore the fundamental issues.
