I really think that the media is a huge part of this problem. Cho mailed that tape to NBC knowing full well it would get blasted out there, and even though he died, he got what he wanted - these crazy people do these things for the negative attention and the media needs to quit giving it to them, and I think if they do quit these events will slow down.
I really believe people died because the media keeps blasting this stuff.
it's like a kid who misbehaves, usually if you ignore them they quit. If you give them negative attention they keep acting up. It's the same thing. These killers are just like spoiled little kids.
somebody please listen to me before more people die.

A lesson in news 101. It is not news if someone does not kill, because most do not. Another thought; would you rather not know about a murderer in your town? As for me, I want a murderer's name, and picture prominently displayed, in case I ever have the misfortune of coming in contact with him.

Yes and no. Yes, the media feeds the sick ego of the criminal or terrorist.
No, the media often buries things they know will piss us off.
Example: permissive liberal judges that put child rapists on probation "Please won't you stay away from the playgrounds?"
We find out and its Crucifixion time for the do-nothing lib simps that believe in therapy instead of punishment.
