Franklin D. Roosevelt was President of the United States, and we all trusted him to take very good care of us.

Killed 13 in September 1949. Somewhat similar in psychological state as some of the more recent shooters.
Can anyone come up with mass shooting incidents in the 1940’s, during and after WWII?
Guns were all over the place, especially after the war, including lethal war souvenirs, yet, no spike in mass shootings/massacres.
How come?
Just asking.
After all, they can't be trusted. They turned against their own countrymen. The rest of us will run the machines to keep our dictator's castle in the sky. For the 'good of the whole'.
We losing the cultural war, esspecially in the news media, entainment and academia, IMHO.
I long for a return to mail order guns. I even miss cheap Norinco ammo.
As much as I agree to the notion that Liberalism is a mental (cognitive) disorder, I am not ready to make the causal leap that Liberalism is the cause of these shootings. Psychotic people have been with us for a very long time and have taken many innocent lives.
Sometimes disease is not externally evident, particularly diseases of the brain.
So far as I can tell, the deadliest mass murder in US history occured in 1927, long before modern liberalism took root.
Not everything is political. Not everything that happens in the world is going to confirm one's own political beliefs.
