All these crazies want their 15 minutes of fame and the sad part is that there are thousands more out there that do as well and a media that is more than complicit to give them their fame.

Exactly. Years ago, sports programming made the decision to NOT SHOW STREAKERS or anyone interrupting the field of play. The same needs to start happening with these crazed killers. |

I totally agree but the ratings($$) are just too important now and our culture has rotted to the point of where total moral relativity rules and there are no such things as moral absolutes any more in order to do the right thing because all that matters is $$ and fame.

I would agree that it is the medias fault. Do you know the name of the killer? Have you seen his picture time and time again? As we speak there is someone digging deep into his life to find out more about him. That something will be aired shortly. However, in 5 years, if anything is recalled about the Connecticut shooting it will be the shooters name and that he killed 20 people, not the name of the victims.
Every person who feels like a nobody and who is going to off themselves quietly in their mother's basement now has a way to go out and leave a mark forever. |

Yep. Media is at fault for many issues. Like fat girls, getting upset because they are fat.

Hell why is it all people in the states with the most gun control that are shooting up everything. You would think it would happen in the states with the least......

Most gun control means the victims most likely are unarmed. Nobody is storming NRA mixers in Texas because they won't get very far. Gun control will only disarm more law abiding citizens and give criminals the upper hand.

Because the criminals in the states with less gun control know that there is a strong possibility that they will be confronted and stopped by armed law obiding citizens
