[DailyMail, where America gets its news] School shootings have become a near-daily occurrence in the United States, but the Wisconsin rampage that left three dead on Monday was a rarity.
The Abundant Life Christian School massacre is the 10th school shooting to be carried out by a female shooter since the Columbine High School shooting in 1999 where 13 were murdered. The massacre is often seen as a watershed moment in the age of American school shootings.
Natalie Rupnow, 15, armed herself with a pistol and opened fire at the small Christian school in Madison, Wisconsin on Monday, killing a teacher and another student. Six others were injured in the attack.
Rupnow, who turned the gun on herself after the massacre, is the youngest female mass school shooter in US history.
Only about 3 per cent of all US mass shootings - defined by the Gun Violence Archive as a single attack in which at least four victims shot, either injured or killed - are perpetrated by females.
EXPERTS WARN
But experts warn that with the rise of gun violence and the increase in the sheer number of school shootings since Columbine that it is almost inevitable that more school massacres will be carried out by female students.
Duh. Three percent of a larger number will also be a larger number. Math always works.
Males often have easier access to firearms, and many shooters model themselves after previous attackers, most of whom were men, said Jonathan Metzl, a sociology and psychiatry professor at Vanderbilt University and gun violence expert.
Some sociologists also view mass shootings as 'reflective of a pathology of toxic masculinity,' Metzl said, adding that men are more likely to commit violent crimes in general, not just school shootings.
I suspect that men are more likely to commit physical violence, whereas women are more likely to commit psychological abuse. That would be a nice little research project for you, Professor, instead of just making blanket statements that reveal your toxic biases.
But other factors common to school shootings - bullying, isolation, social media - are not specific to boys, experts claim.
See?
Data also shows an increase in aggression and violence among adolescent girls in recent years, according to Elizabeth Dowdell, a professor of nursing at Villanova University who has studied school shootings.
Craig Jackson, a professor of Occupational Health Psychology at Birmingham City University in the UK, warned there could be more female schools shooters as levels of narcissism in teenagers continues to rise.
'Much research has looked at the high levels of narcissism required in order to undertake mass shootings, i.e. believing the death of innocent victims is justified,' Jackson told DailyMail.com on Tuesday. 'Unsurprisingly younger males tend to have higher levels of narcissism than their female peers who may be socialized and conditioned into more non-narcissistic behaviors.
'Worryingly, some research shows levels of narcissism in teenagers are increasing year on year as an affect of the me-based society and social media, and this can only suggest mass shootings will continue to increase.'
Jackson has predicted that Rupnow's sex will likely be examined by investigators as a potential source of motive in Monday's attack.
'On social media, especially amongst the widespread online misogynistic movement, the sex of the shooter will no doubt be poured over as a potential source for Rupnow's motive, potentially even seeing her as an 'avenging female',' Jackson said.
'This is a very short-sighted view. Rupnow is more likely to have killed for the same reasons as male shooters do: anger, isolation, or attention. It may have even be a 'solution' to possible recent stressors in her life.'

Correlation and causation are not necessarily related but......if mom isn't healthy?
Throw in social media, teenage angst, and the indoctrination of toxic feminism in the school systems, stir and you may get these results.
[HeritageFoundation] What the Afghanistan Withdrawal Means for Georgia’s NATO Dreams.
Published in 2021.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Georgia has prided itself on its contributions to U.S. and NATO-led combat operations since it joined the U.S.-led coalition in Iraq in 2004.
Since independence, Georgia has been subjected to diplomatic, informational, military, and economic assaults by Russia.
Georgia has been able to implement serious defense reforms and continues to participate in security operations at a rate much higher than that of many NATO members.
[NYPOST] There are growing indications that President Biden is about to fundamentally change the use of presidential pardons by granting ''prospective'' or ''pre-emptive'' pardons to political allies.
Despite repeated denials by President-elect Donald Trump ...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party... that he is seeking retaliation against opponents and wants ''success [to be] my Dire Revenge,'' Democratic politicians and pundits have called for up to thousands of such pardons.
While there is little threat of any viable prosecution of figures like the members of the House's Jan. 6 committee, the use of ''white knight pardons'' offers obvious political benefits.
After many liberals predicted the imminent collapse of democracy and that opponents would be rounded up by the Trump administration, they are now contemplating the nightmare that democracy might survive and that there will be no mass arrests.
The next best thing to a convenient collapse of democracy is a claim that Biden's series of pre-emptive pardons averted it — to preserve the narrative.
Biden's pardon list has replaced the usual Inauguration Ball lists as the ''must-have'' item this year. Pardon envy is sweeping over the Beltway, as politicians and pundits push to be included on the list of presumptive Trump enemies.

How can the Biden pardon a person for a crime they have NOT been convicted of?
What if he pardoned all Pedophile's for any sexual abusive actions done in the last 10 years?
And don't say ridiculous.
Given what we have already seen, this Perverted Democrat administration do and pardon.
[BManalysis] This article is about the damaging effects of ammunition with a particular analysis of what the Oreshnik warhead can do to a target. The whole subject of hypersonic impact on the ground is highly technical and often relies on empirical and simulation research. It can be the subject of many scientific research projects and theses. This article attempts to explain a very complex problem to non-technical readers and describe the characteristics of the hypersonic warhead and how it may affect a highly classified underground facility such as a top command post.
To better understand the overall problem, readers are advised to read the previous two articles discussing the first use of Oreshnik and attacks on underground objects:
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
