Violence has a linguistic dimension that's often overlooked.

A study in the Turkish Journal of Hygiene and Experimental Biology found a clear link between physical violence and "discursive violence" — the harmful language of influential figures, which followers apply more aggressively. Three factors are at play: the perpetrator, the victim, and the cause of violence. Media and law focus on the first two; the hidden driver is the third.

Family, social and psychological support mechanisms, peers, education, and media all matter. But respectful language isn't just politeness — it can be an evidence-based violence prevention strategy.

Dr. S. Lee Funk draws on more than 35 years of experience working with young people with emotional disturbances to argue that rampage killings are not random. They follow predictable patterns rooted in specific conditions and mindsets. My 5-star review is on Medium. Not light reading, but essential reading for mental health professionals, educators, law enforcement, and policymakers.

Rampage killings are not random. They follow identifiable patterns rooted in specific conditions and mindsets. That is the central argument of Dr. S. Lee Funk's Why Rampage Killers Emerge, a rigorously researched work drawing on more than 35 years of experience. Essential reading for mental health professionals, educators, law enforcement, and policymakers. Reviewed by Angie Mangino.

Dr. S. Lee Funk, author of Why Rampage Killers Emerge and How Rampage Killers Interpret Their Worlds, sat down with Authority Magazine's Jake Frankel to reflect on more than 30 years working with students with serious emotional challenges. His thoughts on ethics, scholarship, and the underestimated role of performative violence in extreme behavior make this interview well worth reading.
