No actually, Jordan's "theory" is closer to something that Wojtek said 
earlier: this is aberrant behavior, guns don't magically make people 
homicidal.  A few people blow a gasket now and again and kill a handful 
of people, for reasons that don't seem to make much sense and don't seem 
to fall into much of a pattern.  Get over it!

So maybe change your Subject: line from "bad psychology" to "bad guess" 
...?
