Or better yet if you want to leave this world with something worthwhile to be remembered, leave it with people that you cared about… That should be enough.

Why are we giving this snot nosed brat of a shooter 15 minutes of fame by talking about his murders?
If the news would just have a short blurb that there was a mall shooting, the shooter was shot and killed/captured and let it drop never to revisit it again, we might not ever have these shootings again.

We have a “cult of victimhood” in this country these days IMO. Gnashing of teeth must not be prevented. “There was a shooting the shooters was apprehended/killed/took own life. In other news…” Does nothing to remember the fallen/lost. Must have moments of silence and not forget the victims and all that.
Coldness aside I am very sorry for those who have lost family or friends in that mess.
Agreed, morn the lose of the victoms and not become filled with hate for the killer of the victoms. Although theres been alot talk about the victoms, the talk about Robert heavly over weighs it. Don’t do what he wanted you to do, which is talk nothing about him and how he killed everyone. In our Newspaper, there was 1 big artical about the victoms, there families, and how they put flowers on the mall steps, but there was 1 huge one about Roberts life, another one on the shooting itself, and another big one about the gun he used and how he got it from his step dad, covering a whole 3 pages! If he were to look down…or up rather :wink: :evil: , then he would be very satisfied at what the aftermath is, everyone morns the lose of the killings, everyone is paying atention to it, and everyone is talking mostly about him, so he realy did become famous I guess you could say.
Also, even if we didn’t talk about it or if no one cared if a bunch of people died, dosn’t mean that it would stop happening, when someone is depressed and filled with hate at the world, their not just going to want to kill themselves, their going to want to take someone out with them.
So have a moment for the victims. But don’t release the name of the shooter, don’t talk about his childhood, don’t talk about how one kid was a bully in his class, etc, etc, etc. It becomes a month long memorial to the murderer in this country!

what do you expect, it’s the media!..…I truely hate the media! :x :evil:
Since the Jews control the media I’m gonna blame them for the shooting! :wink:
AJ, should we really start that?
even in jest… :wink:
Jen, I don’t think this is the kind of attention some “-” want anyways. The only people we usually do consider in the end is the family of the victims, by going to their funerals, by donating to causes, by reflecting on their lives, etc…

I hope you didn’t misunderstand me.
I am saying the whole remember the victims, moment for the victims thing becomes the memorial to the shooter I think we are both against. It is the “cult of victimhood” which keeps this thing on the front page and on the headlines for far longer than it should be, which then keeps it in everyones mind for longer than it should be. IMO.
It’s simple. The NFL doesn’t show streakers so that they don’t get the glory they want and thus, it discourages others from streaking.
Just apply the same principle to shooters. Don’t give us his life story, don’t give us his name, condemn what he did and give us the names of the victims and then drop it. No memorials for weeks on end for the country. Those who faced the tragedy can have memorials. Billy-Bob and Mary-Martha don’t know me from anyone else, so if I get shot in a mall by some degenerate, I don’t think they need to suffer weeks on end remembering me, since they don’t have memories OF me!
I don’t think it’s bad to have memorials, especialy in the town it happened, but I agree 100% about the dirt bag that did it. Black out the name and all his details.
This kind of shit really depresses me.
LOL! just dont go into a mall and shoot guys with your M4, instead go out on patrol and shoot Iraqi insugrents! :evil:
The insurgents tend not to congregate in malls. :wink:
What, you mean they are not hanging out at Hot Topic and Victoria Secret? :roll:
Yeah, they actually hide most of the time, and only come out to launch a few rockets and mortars at us! Who would have thought!
But this topic is suppose to be about the Omaha Mall, not Iraq.
Well hey, Victoria’s Secret often makes missiles ready for launch :evil:

Have you been to the mall? It’s enough to make anyone crazy.
