I think a lot of these nuts would do evil things anyways but a lot are lost people who are crying for help. No better way of getting that missing attention than in front of a large audience. The quieta awkward kid growing up finally gets some attention though in a negative sense.

I could really care less about the background of the killer and how he looks like. I think the media goes way overboard with their coverage on the suspect.
Absolutely.

I remember talking about that on this very forum after Columbine. We knew Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold were the most famous people in the world for a few weeks.

Disgusting. It's disgusting that I will never be able to forget their names.
