    The media hypes violence because of the mantra "If it bleeds, it leads". The more it bleeds the more attention paid to it. Look at the media stampede at the shooters residence. Give every maniac with any kind of violent outburst worldwide attention and you will draw viewers. The fact that it will inspire others will just provide you with more bloody stories to run.

    Not every violent killer has pledged the annihilation of Western Civilization, or the take over of the Planet. THAT is the difference.

    Maybe not "capable", but they sure as hell are trying.
