自1982年以来，美国高中和中学发生了28起随机校园枪击案。作者发现（a）枪击事件不是一个全国性的问题，而是发生在“红色州”或县的一系列地方性问题（在2000年选举中投票支持共和党的地方）;（B）大多数开枪的男孩都受到无情的、经常性的戏弄和欺凌，他们的暴力行为是对男子气概受到威胁的报复;（c）特别是白色男孩可能比非洲裔美国男孩更有可能随意开枪;（d）戏弄和欺凌的具体内容是同性恋恐惧症。青少年男子气概，同性恋恐惧症和暴力之间的联系。最后，作者提供了一些可能的解释，说明大多数被戏弄和欺凌的男孩如何获得心理弹性，使他们能够在不诉诸随机学校暴力的情况下度过青春期。
Since 1982, there have been 28 cases of random school shootings in American high schools and middle schools. The authors find (a) that the shootings were not a national problem but a series of local problems that occurred in "red states" or counties (places that voted Republican in the 2000 election); (b) that most of the boys who opened fire were mercilessly and routinely teased and bullied and that their violence was retaliatory against the threats to manhood; (c) that White boys in particular might be more likely than African American boys to randomly open fire; and (d) that the specific content of the teasing and bullying is homophobia. A link between adolescent masculinity, homophobia, and violence is proposed. Finally, the authors offer a few possible explanations as to how most boys who are teased and bullied achieve the psychological resilience that enables them to weather adolescence without recourse to random school violence.
