I Hate Mass Shootings

People actually love mass shootings, they've become such a big part of society as we know it today. Whenever a shooting happens, people are all over it with the media coverage surrounding it. The ratings don't lie; mass shootings are just all the rage whenever one happens. Plus, they're a great thing to virtue signal with on social media by pretending to care and showing off to your friends how caring and compassionate you are. They're also a hot topic for debates on how to prevent them from happening (like anyone really wants that) and we all know how much people love their debates. Indeed, people just have total hard-ons for mass shootings. No one will ever admit it, of course. But that's the truth, whether anyone's willing to admit to it or not.

Interesting perspective. When I read the first sentence, I thought...HUH?? NO! But you are correct that society has something of a morbid fascination with these horrific events. As the saying in the news goes..."if it bleeds, it leads." That just gets the ball rolling.
