Video games? Rock music? Violent films? Bad parenting? Peer influence? Certain subcultures? Mental disease? Or (unlikely) the killer himself for his lack of personal responsibility?

And guns. How could I forget.

I think the media will cover this shooting for about 20 minutes then move on. It seems like a lot of innocent people have to die at once for anyone to care. Single shootings will be glanced at and forgotten. Did they beat Columbine? Nope! Let's move on...

theyll blame mental desease
theyll blame access to guns and ammo

They will get blamed for all that you mentioned but thats the easy excuse..,you will get the conspiracy theorists that will say there were weapons planted at the school by George Bush and Dick Cheney taught them how to shoot the guns and Condoleeza Rice set it up with the canadian govt and Donald Rumsfeld didnt send in enough weapons..,makes sense doesnt it?

Well, considering the Canadian Liberal Govt spent over a billion dollars of tax payer money on a program that was suppose to be self supporting. i.e. gun registration fees.
Remember Canada's GDP is less than California.
I SAY BLAME BUSH....hell he gets blamed for everything else.
I bet the guns belonged to Dick Cheney, run the prints.

im sure different news stations will blame pretty much all of those.... but u know what.... i play the violentest games, listen to rock constantly, my library is full of violent movies, my parents werent the best and my friends arent really good role models either... and im working my way to become a cop. so they can say what they want but they are wrong... its probably jsut the enviroment they grew up in and their parents probably didnt punish them enough when they were a kid

I vote for bad parenting...
If you're not taught the values of life at an early age from the people you're supposed to get it from, these things will keep happening.
There are thousands of people who play video games, listen to music, watch violent films, etc.... that were taught those values and will not pull the trigger.

it not anything with the media I think is somebody who wanted to be regiwstered in that school and was rejected by low notes so he came furious and went to do the shooting but I think is social this shooting there is a lot pression everybody`have to have a "carreer" well there is nobody fault there is always an unstable person ready to explose somewhere.

None of the above. I'd say it is the easy and indiscriminate access to guns and ammo by people who have never been tested for psychological stability through neuro-psychiatric examinations.
