Because everything is getting more deadly, and I hate it. Sometimes I feel bad because I have to grow up young now instead of during the 80's. I think God sort of punished me sometimes. I feel like society is hanging on a thread.

And honestly, I think the cliche that we only see it more is only a way of trying to boost our confidence in the modern world.

I don't think the world is overpopulated. I think we're going through a demographic winter.

What I wonder is, if all the publicity of mass shootings, encourages someone to plagiarize.



The publicity also makes someone paranoid, scared, uptight, etc

One thing is for certain, too big of a publicity for anything isn't good and can harm one way or another, either first or second hand.

Paraphrasing something the Dalai Lama said:

When people love people and use things, the force for good is enhanced. The current situation is that people love things and use people as if they were things. No culture dominated by the latter values encourages the time honoured beatitudes - it undermines and destroys them at a cultural level which seeps down poisonously to a personal level.
