    Did we get a count of citizens vs noncitizens killed in the club? Yes I know, getting a little silly.....

    Have a great day...

    Yes, that is exactly what I said, and exactly what I meant. You want proof that copy cat killers exist? OK, I'll play your game. April 20th, 1999 - at Columbine High school in Littleton Colorado Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris went on a shooting spree that killed 15 and injured another 21 people.

    Fast forward to April 16, 2007 - Blacksburg Virginia one Seung Hui Cho proceeded to kill 33 people at his school and injure another 23. His inspiration? You guessed it, Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris. Proof?

    Cho idolized Columbine killers – The Denver Post

    It's well documented the sick piece of human excrement idolized the columbine killers, and right there in the second paragraph, "...dreamed that his violent acts would bear 'children.'" The copy cat was hoping to spawn YET MORE COPY CATS.

    This may get me banned, but how in the blue **** is the media NOT at least in part responsible for this? Point blank, the way these events are covered and the way they make these psychopaths famous amongst other psychopaths spawns copy cats. Do they do it intentionally? I seriously doubt it. But the fall out of their actions can NOT be denied.

    Look at this, 10 years after Columbine:

    Media coverage of the Columbine shootings – The Denver Post

    Books:

    'Columbine' Author Dave Cullen Criticizes Media's Handling Of Mass Shootings

    Movies:

    GAMES:

    Super Columbine Massacre RPG!

    I kid you not a G** D*** video game. There's your friggin proof. Do you need more? Because that's just ONE pair of massacres, and we've got plenty more I can file through.

    Edit: And you know what else? I can handle a bunch of angry yuppies that really really wanted to know what the killer's name was. You know why? Because they may be mad as hell, and they may march up and down the streets and raise a fuss. But they probably won't kill anyone, unlike yet another copy cat looking up to their next idol.

    The same amendments that give you your second amendment rights gives the media their first amendment rights. Do you wish to curtail that? Folks have a right to know what's happening good or bad and there is a corollary here between the First and Second which we can't discuss here because we can't talk the G things.

    A BBC report says the shooters wife will be charged as an accessory. A grand jury convened to investigate her.

    Which means she MAY be charged as an accessory.

    Constitutional Amendments don't give us rights they protect them.

    Failings of government and people have never let us realize the full potential of our founding documents. Hate and fear is a virus that undermines and restricts the rights guaranteed by our Constitution. Freedom is letting other people do things you don't like....
