No place is safe…

Under: Around The World, How Outrageous, Uncategorized @ 9:00 pm on Wednesday, 12.5.07

Some sick pathetic psycho decides to go suicidal in a Shopping Mall in Nebraska killing 8 and injuring 5 then taking his own life away…Good riddance…but why take away innocent lives before taking away your own?! The gunman shot one man in the head from a third-floor balcony and others at point-blank range, witnesses said. Some of the victims were shot inside Von Maur department store as they lined up to get their purchased Christmas gifts wrapped…

For these people, what was meant to be a typical shopping trip, ended up being their end. How depressing! How Sad!

How outrageous!
Schools, Universities, even homes and workplaces, and now malls are no longer safe … one has no clue where and when the next psycho is going to take out his sick outrage on innocent random people…

Wishing the 5 injured a speedy recovery…and may the 8 victims rest in peace and may God help their families cope with such loss particularly during this Holiday Season.

Just seeing his comment “Now I’ll be famous”, makes me sick.

Makes me glad I have to go through a metal detector in Amman to shop.

How sad!

“Now I’ll be famous” … Is this like the new trend?

I just cannot imagine how hard it must be for the families to deal with such horrible news right before Christmas. The injured got lucky. And the dead, may their souls rest in peace :(

He’s sick … what’s the point of being famous but not being here to enjoy it?! and I bet there are many like him out there… I think the media is put in a sensitive spot when covering such stories… It’s one thing to report an incident and another to make it headlines and give it so much focus … when the media is constantly repeating the story and focusing on the psychos who do it, it - in a way - is glorifying it…and so ideas start generating in sick minds… and they too wanna become famous!

i think youre being too hard on him (calling him pathetic, psycho, etc) .. why not blame the society that creates such people .. i think the kid is a victim just like the people he killed ..

forget the now ill be famous part .. thats just the media trying to make it a juicy story .. did you read the entire suicide note .. its so sad .. i for one actually feel sorry for the guy ..
