[quote=Anonymous]I believe my younger brother, Larlo, could have done something like that.  We had a f*cked up childhood - dad was horrifically abusive, raged every 3-5 days, alcoholic, would trash the house, humiliated us whenever he could, etc.  My brothers (not just my younger one, the older ones as well) got into drugs/alcohol at an early age.  In hindsight, Larlo also had ADHD and learning disabilities.  He was also the most sensitive emotionally.

Our father killed himself when Larlo was 18 and Larlo swiftly went out of control.  This was in the 80s when these mass shootings were nearly unheard of.  Now, though, with all that's going on, I could see Larlo getting all f*cked up, getting really angry, taking a gun out and shooting people. I don't know what mental disorders he would have been diagnosed with.  Instead of shooting up other people, he ended up shooting himself and died.  That was 30 years ago.

It's going to sound really shitty but even though it still hurts to think about him, it's a relief not to have to worry about him anymore or to worry about him hurting anyone.[/quote]
