I spoke from experience, at my junior high school, a kid who was bullied mercilessly shot two of his tormentors and then himself. The administration overlooked the bullying issue at our school and has, ever since, worked very hard to pretend that such a thing never happened, despite the kid getting "swirlies" in toilets that had yet to be flushed. I heard the shots, watched the news crew vans pull up (our first clue that something had gone down), and so forth.
It's not a myth.
The answer is: not a single one. Literally all of them, if your read their stories in detail, have history of serious mental health and behavioral issues, have history of violence. The have either history of inability to communicate with anyone (as in avoiding people and not talking - and not because they were bullied) or history of mistreating people who try.
The nice bullied lonely guy suddenly snapping into carnage is a myth. It does not happen. The nice bullied lonely guy may end up with ptsd and low self esteem and issues, but they don't end up suddenly killing bunch of people.
