Justin_Beach thank you for your post. After the tragic school shooting in Connecticut, I was hoping to see someone open up and start admitting that these frequent acts of horrendous violence are symptomatic of a larger societal ill. No one. Not a sound. It's all reduced to a gun lobby vs. gun-ban proponents. We have a very sick society and no one in our media wants to admit it. I used to work with a guy who would spend all day surfing break dot com , UFC , WWF and all kinds of material related to violence. When I asked him why he had such a fetish with violence he simply said "it's fun". If we had journalists with courage their reports would look like your post.
