      I think people who have this intention are normally emotionally unstable in some way. This may be because something bad has happened to them to make them feel this way or it may be more deep rooted psychological problems which have made them mentally ill.

      Some people get angry and jealous and they don’t know how to cope with it and they act in silly ways- this is not an excuse why people kill though

      I’m not sure, I’m not a psychiatrist. I think not being at peace with themselves could be one reason.

      Many reasons. Greed, revenge and anger, mental illness. Everyone is different.

      I think that sometimes people lose perspective (a sense of what’s important), morals (a sense of what’s right) and empathy (an inability to see something from someone else’s perspective). You’d have to lose all three!
