From Victim to Bully

How excruciating shyness could lead to an inner life of revenge fantasies ending in tragedy.

According to one friend of Adam Lanza, he was excruciatingly shy as a teenager.  If you have ever felt shy, embarrassed or humiliated in public, or the victim of cruel teasing or ostracism in your peer group, you know the feeling.  Multiply that memory of the pain of shame by a power of 10 or 20 and make it last for years and we might be able to understand a craving for revenge that could overwhelm reason.
