Seriously... does mandated mask-wearing and the lack of human contact as a result of complying add to the necessary social triggers that make these shootings happen more frequently?

No punishment, in my opinion, is too great, for the man who can build his greatness upon his country's ruin~  George Washington

I think so.  Forced lockdown's and isolation = idle hands are the devil's workshop.

You bet.  The mask acts as a way to hide one's identity, making perps feel they can get away with it.

And I hope the perp is one of the three killed for all our sakes.

The link above has updated the story. Taken from the middle of the updated story:

According to Austin-Travis County EMS, three adults (two women and one man) were pronounced dead at the scene, which took place at the Arboretum Oaks Apartments, located at 9617 Great Hills Trail. ATCEMS says the incident was reported at 11:42 a.m. Sunday.

Police have tentatively named 41-year-old Stephen Nicholas Broderick as the suspect and they’re considering him armed and dangerous. Broderick, a Black male, is said to be wearing a gray hoodie and a baseball cap.

According to the Texas Rangers and Travis County court records, Broderick is a former Travis County Sheriff’s detective and was charged with sexual assault of a child in June 2020.

From what I've read elsewhere, the guy's life has pretty much fallen apart as a result of the sexual assault charge. My semi-wild guess is that the people killed were in some way connected to that case.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.
