According to some research, one of the main factors is that guns are very widespread in the US and have become a cultural norm. The available firearms greatly amplify the probability and severity of any violent outcome, resulting in higher overall rates of violence among American men than in other Western countries. Additionally, poverty and an increased lack of access to mental health services means that some groups within American society are more likely to resort to violence.

One possible explanation is that American culture places a much higher value on masculinity and physical strength than many other Western countries, which may result in the sense of entitlement to acts of aggression being more accepted.
