Hi,
What is going on these days...People are on a killing spree.
People have always had a thing for killing other people. The inquisitions, Crusades, Jihads, WWI and II, <insert country's name here> Civil War,
Why can't they just kill themselves, WHY do they have to take others with them. It is no longer safe to leave your home, this is NUTS.
I've often times wondered that myself ... with the likes of Hemmingway:P (Kill yourself already and be done with it:P)
Also, consider this: How many Wendy's, McDonald's, Burger King's, Jack in the Box's, etc. are there in the U.S. Out of all these locations, we had the one incident in West Palm Beach. While it's sad, and shouldn't have happened, it's not like locations are being shot up all across the country. (Same thing with the periodic school violence issues). I'd still put money on being more likely to be in a fatal automobile accident than being shot up at a fast food place. (Unless the fast food joint is in downtown Camden or Detroit:P).
Remember... If it Bleeds, it Leads ... regardless of how representative of things it is.
