Horrible.
Such a beautiful and peaceful community as anyone who has ever been to Lancaster County can attest.
Bobblehead...when Columbine happened I argued that the extended coverage would actually make things worse. I don't know that to be true, but it sure seems like it.
Some of these things though are very different than Columbine. The one in Colorado was a pervert looking for young girls in a concentrated area. The on in Wisconsin last week seemed to be a vendetta against one particular administrator. It's tough to classify all of these as related to Columbine. You can't not cover the story either, but I think they went way overboard.
Its something that probably won't be understood for another 20 years when a larger sample of school shootings can be studied.
Sickening that they are so prevalent that we need to study them, isn't it?
