Cause, no. Correlate? Yes. Any time you distance yourself from the "enemy" it helps to dehumanize them.
Criminal is too broad a term, gang members are crminal and hihly social. I think maybe you are looking for "mass murderer" maybe?
It sounds like he wasn't avoiding people, but that he had prior behaviors (stalking, violent fiction, etc) that led people to avoid him... which perhaps fueled his beleif of being persecuted, etc.
Just spitballing, I've been trying to avoid all the violence-porn the media is doing.

I'm sorry but I don't buy that as an excuse. Those were just some of the symptoms of his much deeper problems. I am a loner and I am no criminal...I just don't trust many people anymore. Rejection is a part of life we all go through. We are rejected by other people, jobs,etc. It's part of life we have to learn to deal with. I think his problems run much deeper than just lonliness and rejection. He didn't have to be lonely...people tried to talk to him and include him but he would have nothing to do with them.Let's face it, he was extremely mentally unstable and I'm sure we'll continue to hear more about him and his upbringing as the days go by.

When it's bottled up inside a person, it will keep on piling up and later on will burst and the outcome is disastrous. either he harms himself or other people or both. Yes, loneliness and rejection can be a cause but it varies with every individual how they cope with it. In the case of Cho, it's all inside him and there's no outlet so... the outcome is tragedy.

Nope. BUT being too much of a loner is a red flag psychologically. What is it that you always think about alol alone and are comfortable in the absence of others....good or bad?

No somewhere a complete mental disconecction to humanity as a whole has to come into place. Just because someone is lonely and has been rejected their whole life does not mean they automatically lose their sense of humanity and common sense.

I'm 20 years old and im a loner.
I got teased and bullied in school.
But i didn't go on a shooting rampage.
I don't buy that being bullied made him become a murderer.
He may have been mentally ill but he was also pure evil.
