I was really quite amazed at the insight this 18 year old had about all the killings at schools and universities. Yes, it can be argued that most of those who kill have deep psychological problems, but perhaps if our society were a little bit less about "me" and a little bit more about all of us and how we can help one another and be a bit kinder to one another, some of these tragedies might be preventable.
Great article!

Society is paying more attention to these killings. In the Littleton Colorado incident all of the shooters were bullied and ostricised by thier peers. Other shootigs have similar mo's. Schools and parents today are doing more to prevent bullying and recognising that catching this early might prevent other shootings from happening.
