A nice little witches brew...
You forgot a few elements, such as:
At least TWO FBI inquiries, both of which poked the pooch.
Obvious signs of both mental disturbance and Islamic fundamentalism left unreported by friends and coworkers.
Conspiracy to commit the crimes on the part of his wife.
Approval of the firearms purchases by the NICS background check system...you know, the one that every gun-banner on earth thinks will solve the problem if only every gun transfer were subject to it...but which check quite literally ALL of the mass killers in the last several years have passed when buying their guns.
And most importantly a drastic shortage of legally armed individuals in the venue who might have put a stop to the killing.
