It's tragic when some nut arms himself and sets out to kill a bunch of innocents. I can't help but believe that at least a part of the reason its done is to gain some kind of infamy, to satisfy the need for fame, no matter what the cost. And the news networks are only to happy to satisfy that need. When a nut goes off, the network news rushes in. Experts are called in to determine what was the "motive," as if there was one. Then we'll have the interviews with victims families and witnesses. And if the interviewer can cause a good cry to break out, all the better. And what about grief counseling? We need to line up some of those experts. Post traumatic stress disorder? Covered. Anything learned from it all? Nope. Mr. Holmes will take his place among those who suffer from feelings of inadequacy and did something about it. And the networks will bemoan the terribleness of it all, willfully silent and purportedly ignorant of their role in it all.
