They've got hormones, extreme sexual repression, and Mormonism dumping loads of crap into the critical thinking portion of their brain to jamb the gears. Who wouldn't be annoyed. And there is the Mormon male sense of entitlement that they are dealing with, often dealing poorly with it.
Symptoms:
knife obsession
gun obsession
bomb threats to schools
pipe bombs in fields
pipe bombs in schools
aggressive driving, particularly on freeways
domestic violence, hazing, date rape
polygamist cult groups
survivalist cult groups
This is why Utah has way more than its fair share of Angry White Males, both criminal and political. Mark Hacking, Josh Powell, Steve Powell, the Singer/Swapps, the Allreds, the Jeffs, the LeBarons, the Kingstons, Richard Worthington, Ted Bundy (not Mo, but attracted to Utah), Ted Kozinsky(also not Mo, but mailed at least one of his bombs from BYU), Super Del (resident nutcase), Richard Worthington, the Laffertys, Mark Hoffman, Mike Lee, Bo Greitz. Most of the Montana Freemen (remember them?) were Utah Mormons. Gordon Call in ND had been Mormon, but he was too nuts even for them. He shot and killed a federal agent. Oh, and how could I forget David Mitchell?
Considering that Utah is less than 1% of the US population, that is a pretty impressive list of Angry White Males. Iowa has the same population as Utah. Give me a similar list of Angry White Iowa Males!!! I know from ATF reports that Utah is near the top of states for bomb threats and actual bombs found, even allowing for the fact that it is a mining state, so explosives are more available than in many states. It beats out other mining states, like CO, NV, ID, WVa.
Like I said, lot of free-floating anger among Mormon males. Probably among the women too, but they'll take Prozac.
Yes, most Mormon males are more or less normal, and there are nut cases everywhere, not just in Utah. But Utah has way more than its fair share.
