Hi, I also wonder about the role that the prospect of fame plays in facilitating these crimes. A media orgy follows ever single mass shooting. Those with tendencies and enough anger may be inspired. It's vicarious reinforcement. I wish there were a way to temper our free press with a modicum of responsibility. Perhaps it's part of the price we pay and we can't have it both ways.
