I remain unconvinced and think it warrants a closer look.
Nobody knows more about mass murder and serial killings in the U.S. than James Alan Cox and Jack Levin at Northeastern University. Using FBI NIBRS police incident report data, they've compile a database of serial killings and mass murders that date back to 1980. The database includes suspect demographics and possible motives in the killings from investigative notes. They segregated out the data that you're describing and examined these instances in depth.
Based on that database, mass murders have not increased since 1980.

You've been given adequate opportunities to examine the data for yourself, and you choose to ignore it in favor of your paradigms.
Clearly, you would rather believe what you want to believe than objectively examine the evidence.
Prayjesus it is not you discussing guns in a thread NOT about guns, despite guns being in the title, authored by you.
Yeah?
