#68 - What Creates a Mass Shooter? | Breaking Trail Podcast

In the US there has been average 2 mass shootings per day this year, and more than 25000 deaths from gun violence. What can be done to stop this escalation? In this episode we look at the phenomenon of mass shooting on an individual level, and get to the root cause of what it is that actually creates a mass shooter. As you’ll hear, the problem isn’t simply the guns. Mass shootings were not occurring as frequently in the past even when more households owned guns. The problem lies rather in a complete breakdown of moral and spiritual values in society which is leading to increased mental health issues, hopelessness–and anger turned outward.
