The MSM have been in a total feeding frenzy over the Connecticut massacre since Friday and there are no signs of it dying down yet. Death porn. The perp, who sounds like one of those total losers, has now achieved national and even world wide notoriety. Which is probably what motivated him in the first place.
One reason we have these horrible massacre is the media hype them so mercilessly and that attracts the unstable losers, who see themselves transformed from faceless non entities to world wide celebrities with a pull of a trigger. They used to pot shot presidents (Lincoln, Garfield, Kennedy, and Reagan) but the Secret Service has tightened security and it's pretty tough to score these days. Elementary schools are softer targets.
We ought to do what we can to curb the flow of death porn. The offenders should be mocked, and sponsors should make their voices heard too. Fox TV News has gone pretty far overboard this time, with ceaseless drivel. I'm not ready to scrap the First Amendment, so we can't make laws against death porn, but we ought to try social pressure. It would be more effective than another "assault weapons" ban.
