    I swear, the more it happens and gets publicity, the more it will happen in the future.

    Even though it's an example of what not to do, it will be seen as an example. So when certain maladjusted/mentally unstable/disenfranchised people feel wronged by anything, they will think a way to deal with that, make their point, and get their message across will be to kill a lot of folks.

    I dont know about you, but I don't advocate or condone any sort of killing.

    And if you really think a gun can't be more deadly then a knife then you must be some awesome ninja assasin.

    He reminds me of those people who go around trolling 'in memoriam' posts on social media to get reactions from the family members.

    I guess it's ultimately best to just ignore someone whose only motivation is to be upsetting for the sake of a cheap thrill. From everything I've read on troll psychology, they're generally just unhappy people with little going on in their own lives to make them happy.

    Still, just because someone is pathetic doesn't mean that they're powerless. I personally need to get better at not reacting (easier said than done).

    Just think how bad it would have been if guns were easily accessible over there.

    Crime goes down with reduced poverty, that's not exactly a groundbreaking revelation. I was specifically talking about someone mass murdering disabled kids.

    Sad, but I doubt this was the first one or the last one.

    My point was only... it's not crazy. It's improving. Social network and a smaller world is what make it closer to home and seems like it's out of control. And that's not all bad - we need to keep pushing for less violence and we do that more often we are are aware of them.
