Did Elliott Rogers Stature contribute to his mass killings?

I'm sure he had a lot if problems to begin with but if he was under 5'7" then his height probably didn't help matters.

I think he forgot that he needed to get out of his car to meet girls.

Is there any source on his height? I know his mother was Malaysian and Dad from the UK, neither are a tall people.

He was very socially awkward and aspergers syndrome compounded it all. Sad story.

No. His mind contributed to his killing. He was 5'9 anyway, so it's not like he was short enough to the point where his height would have been the deciding factor for why he couldn't get laid. He was unsuccessful with women because he was very socially awkward and narcissistic. 

Is there any source on his height?

His profile on one of the bodybuilding forums.

The guy was mentally ill with functional aspegers. He had all the advantages of having a
father well connected in Hollywood and as mentioned he wasn't that short.

It was mental illness.

He was mostly just racist against both Whites and non-Whites and frustrated about not getting any White girlfriend... Sums it up.  :-X

He does mention height once or twice when referring to guys he envied but I guess it wasn't the core of his problem.

The situation with Elliot Rogers had little to do with height and more so with untreated mental illness. As sad as it is, mental health is often ignored and played down. Unfortunately, with everyone and their dog trying to make this into something political, it's easy to think he did this for other reasons. When I watched the video of him discussing his plans before the mass murder, this person did not sound like a mentally sound person. When you have a person talking about having retribution and killing off girls simply because he could not have them, does that sound like something someone who is sane would do?
