So, a quick glance.
He was an ex marine.
He was vehemently anti government.
Who else, is military/ex-military and is vehemently anti government, these days?
Notwithstanding all of this, the article you linked is adamant about it: lone. fucking. gunman.
But if you really want to go political about mass murderers, let's just say that most mass shooters are... right wingers.

False, easily manipulatable statistics. Similar to the statistics for "police killings" being used to demonstrate "unlawful illegal murdering by police". Two entirely separate categories
If we define the term "mass" as 3 or more dead, then according to FBI crime statistics that are increasingly more difficult to find these days, then gang shootings become the leader in this category. Also, the incident rate skyrockets when considering the category of 3-4 people killed, because obviously the most common murders are 1 person, then lesser occurring are 2 people, and so on
And if we are talking about threat to the nation, the chance of being mass murdered, as in how you define the category, like a Dylan Roof racist (I'm assuming you know what he did), is similar to being struck by lightning. The chance of you dying to a single murderer, is insanely higher. And the chance of you killing yourself (not meaning you, just suicide rates in general) is insanely higher than all of these
