Everyone is going to try and take something from it personally. Your own take is the only one you have. You don't sound like a victim to me, you sound like a guy who is thinking about it a lot just like I have. It's hard to put your mind around how it could happen. Murders happen in this city often but the magnitude and nature of this one is disturbing beyond belief.
And no, I wouldn't take anything you said as offensive. Everyone has different thoughts about things, something such as this being so unimaginable, can probably make us all think some pretty crazy thoughts, too. I feel that same way, you want to hate the jerk, but it's just so messed up you really can't. If he really was that bad in his mind, he needed help and unfortunately never got it. More or less just feel so bad for the innocent victims, none of this had to happen. Wished they could have detached themselves from him before the tragic ending.

It's one of the very few moments in a lifetime you wish you could roll back time for, even without knowing a single person involved, it's just that terrible.
I know that big question keeps coming up, "Why?" Everyone asks it, no one knows. I don't think it's something we as a civilization can come to understand. You don't know until you're in that mindstate and then it's too late. I think if we could figure out why, we'd have an answer and could prevent it from happening again. But unfortunately it seems as though it's one of those things that's out of our control. I just hope people involved more closely than us aren't beating themselves up over it.
