article, I am thinking maybe he was another male who thought he was entitled to demand the girl's affection.

Nicolas Cruz was also at least partly triggered because his ex-girlfriend (whom he abused) was seeing someone else.

Most mass shooters (mass killers generally, in fact, with or without a gun) have a history of domestic violence, and most mass murders target a woman the killer was married to or otherwise involved with (or wanted to be involved with), plus her family, friends, coworkers, or anyone in the vicinity at the time of the killing.
