Are there any shooters you personally consider morally "good" people?

Everyone has their own personal definition of good and bad, I'm curious as to if anyone has a shooter they think was/is a good person despite their actions, or that had good intentions with what they did.

Personally I consider Kip Kinkel now to be a "redeemed" or "rehabilitated" person in my eyes, it doesn't take away what he's done at all or the damage he's caused, but I believe that he's done what he can to try and help himself and others without protesting the consequences of his actions. Furthermore I think his actions absolutely came from mental sickness, naivety, fear and despair, not out of pure malice or hatred. My definition of "morally good" is pretty skewed from the norm though.

Martin Bryant looked like a pretty nice person Kip Kinkel has full remorse for his actions and didnt "hate" people. James Holmes looked like a pretty nice person. Adam Lanza was a nice, quiet young man who was friendly to those around him.

probably connor sturgeon, as he was probably the most "normal" person prior to his shooting.

I feel similarly about Barry Loukaitis. Life dealt him a pretty awful hand, and his open letter to people considering homicide is definitely tinged with a lot of regret.

All of them were considered normal, they had several friends and had no problems with people.

Barry Loukaitis seems like he is genuinely very remorseful and wrote a statement trying to discourage people from following in his foot steps [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

To be fair, this statement demonstrates a lot of unawareness of how mass shootings function, as it is written as if the kid planning an irl trolling at his school doesn't intend to kill himself. Regardless, the general message is good.
