    Two weeks of work at locally owned company is not in the same vein.

    A local CEO is still a CEO. A new employee doesn’t rule out a copycat motivation.

    This guy had mental health issues.

    The same can be said of the copycats of Columbine. People who do these sorts of things can always and easily be said to have mental health issues. That still doesn’t rule out copycat motivations, as that’s not mutually exclusive.

      Agreed. But that’s not always an easy thing to determine. I mean, many thought I was mentally ill, or a paid troll from Russia, or whatever, just based on what I say.

      So it’s a tough call to say someone has mental health issues unless you’re an expert in the field.
