So, I was taking a look at the shooters' in the worlds recent history...

And some may not use guns, i realize. but the end result is the same. Has anyone seen "Horsemen"? I was wondering if this domino effect of mass killings or attempt at it is a result of some website somewhere that lures people in and they are deciding to commit these acts around the world? I have been a victim of a cult my entire life and i have seen it up close. People can be convinced of anything.

Media is the biggest culprit.
We live with a disproportionate amount of easily influenced copy cats.
If you doubt it just look up copy cat culture or media generated suicides.
It's crazy.
@Dainbramadge I don't have to look it up, i believe you are correct. i still think that it is a plot. But the fact that these people are investigated publicly and in depth looks are done about these people's lives...that has got to boost interest in committing the crime

@DIABLISS History repeats itself? I do believe we are in a society, saturated by media, that creates tragedy. Preying upon young minds, sometimes without a role model, but I'm not even sure that is entirely the case - I'm happy I didn't learn this at a younger age, but creating a crisis draws attention.
@SW-User I am glad that going into a classroom and shooting people was not in when i was in school. it would have happened constantly at my school.
