What the hell is wrong with people? I don't have link for it, but saw on the news this morning a girl in Texas wiped out most of her family and burned the house. I have to fight back the tears every time this happens. Seems human life has no more value than a cockroach. Pa. Patriot I'm not even gonna check the links, its just to sickening.

Yeah, and at the sake of being called a looney?

It's hard to say either way.

My thoughts go out to those who are suffering.

Is it really the sprees that pick up, or just the sensationalized coverage of them?

[Dave in PA]

I have to vote for the sensationalized coverage....... you don't hear too much about good things that people do, so everyone feels that the country has a bunch of wack jobs. Kind of like the economy, the news keeps reporting how we are in a recession, John and Jane Q Public keeps hearing it, so it must be true, so they don't do what they would normally do, helping push the recession deeper, which the media reports......
