Yes school shootings are part of a media hysteria.

Unfortunately the effects of lousy education are not.

    Media hysteria

    «The Crux of the Biscuit is the Apostrophe»

    perl -MCrypt::CBC -E 'say Crypt::CBC->new(-key=>'kgb',-cipher=>"Blowfish")->decrypt_hex($ENV{KARL});'Help

      When you look for a why it boils down pretty neatly into two categories, for attention and infamy, as LanX has said, and mental issues, almost always exacerbated by medication; many anti-depressants and anti-psychotics have the opposite effect on some people, especially teens. Teen suicide in the US is up 70% in 10 years, on the same topic. No one is interested in the real causes though, only the medium.

      And 8 of them in Germany! (update: 5 this century)

      Why? Because heavy media coverage is motivating others, who want to see themselves in the news.
