i am not linking to any specific article, because i'm sure everyone will find the same info at their favorite news source. my only real question is: why do we put the label of "worst" school shooting on virginia tech simply because of the body count? i'd nominate this one for "worst" because of the ages of the children killed, even though it is only the second "worst" shooting by body count. maybe some day we will live to see a day where we don't have yet another mass shooting to compare to all the others.... 
We will stop this insanity.
In other news. Today, I am hopeful that there is a hell. And I am hoping that this guy is in hell right now, and that his skin is being peeled off in small, painful strips, and that his eyes are being poked with hot irons and that he lives an eternity in this hell, reliving this pain and damnation day after day after day after day.

For each of those 30 years sociologists have warned of the growing danger of growing alienation.

I dunno, your response suggests you figured it out pretty quickly.

Short form: The common phrases "suicide by cop" and "going postal" did not exist a generation ago.

if they were after fame, they would probably all have tried to stay alive after killing everyone

I frequently confuse that detail of Hinckleys shooting with Chapmans, sorry.

Chapman wasn't a mass murderer, though. Neither was Hinckley.

True, but it does demonstrate how easily and frequently notoriety motivates shootings.
