List of rampage killers (religious, political, or ethnic crimes) explained

This is a list of mass or spree killers that were considered by reliable sources to have been motivated by political or religious causes. A mass murderer is typically defined as someone who kills three or more people in one incident, with no "cooling off" period, not including themselves.[1] [2] A mass murder typically occurs in a single location where one or more persons kill several others.[3] [4] [5]

This list does not include serial killers, members of democidal governments, or major political figures who orchestrated such actions.
