Summary

Domestic terrorists make headlines almost daily-creating ’terror’ all over the U.S.
-so what’s a Radical Islamist to do to make us more ’terrified’ of them? Recent
mass shootings, scattered all over the U.S.-in Gilroy, California, El Paso, Texas
and Dayton, Ohio-made people feel like nowhere was safe. So, news of an ISIS
terror attack might have gotten lost in this barrage. Dr. Carole takes you inside
the head of these shooters, to understand what makes them tick, what their
motivation was, and what-if anything-makes them different from ISIS.

When Santino William Legan, the Gilroy Garlic Festival Shooter, was asked why
he was doing this, he said, “Because I’m really angry!” Indeed, this can be said
of all mass shooters (including ISIS terrorists). They unleash their rage on the
world, proving it by the number of dead bodies they leave in their wake. After
Legan's attack, it was discovered he had an ambitious target list, which has set
the FBI on a domestic terrorism investigation.

Patrick Crusius, the El Paso shooter, was inspired by Brenton Tarrant, the New
Zealand shooter who attacked mosques. Crusius, too left a manifesto before his
attack, which reveals he was angry about what he perceived as the Hispanic
invasion of Texas.

Connor Betts, the Dayton, Ohio shooter, doesn't really fit the definition of a
domestic terrorist. His motivation was much more personal and was
foreshadowed by the hit lists he left of boys he wanted to kill and girls he wanted
to rape because they wouldn’t date him. All of these shootings, however, were
preventable, if people ’said something’ when they ’saw something’.

0:39.3	Welcome to the terrorist therapist show. I'm Dr. Carroll, a psychiatrist and your terrorist
0:45.0	therapist. Well, it seems like ISIS has some competition in the spreading terror department
0:53.4	because there are some new kids on the block, domestic
0:57.9	terrorists, or not even, I mean, we're sort of calling them in a general sense domestic
1:03.8	terrorists, but some of them actually don't have a particular political or social agenda.
1:10.9	They are just very mentally disturbed. Well, they are just very mentally disturbed.
1:13.4	Well, they are all pretty much mentally disturbed.
1:15.6	But they are not all, they haven't all pledged allegiance to ISIS.
1:23.7	In fact, they have other reasons for spreading terror,
1:27.4	such as immigration, wanting to get immigrants out of the country,
1:34.9	wanting, particularly the shooter in El Paso, Texas, wanted to get Mexicans out of the country.

1:52.2	Gilroy shooter and the El Paso shooter and the Ohio shooter. Now, the Ohio shooter, as I was
1:59.8	starting to say, that is the one who had personal
