Rising lone-actor mass-casualty events
Window: 13 Oct 2029 – 13 Oct 2036
LevelBuilding
What this is
Threshold shift where lone-actor mass-shooter + mass-casualty events (not organized terrorism) cross a frequency + fatality-count line marking the baseline as higher than prior decade. F-CT-9 ADAPTATION-REQUIRED on security + culture + policy substrates. Online-radicalization pipelines + copy-cat dynamics amplify. Not a single event — a baseline shift measured on multi-year averages.
