I grew up in "deliverance country" as you so eloquently put it, snd there was only one person who died in my school. That was due to an icey road in the middle of winter. I would suggest the only reason for murder is a deeply rooted emotional issue. For example a violent sociopath or say a soldier trained to kill suffering with ptsd and not being properly looked after. Blaming not enough entertainment is insane.

We just went through Newtown weekend before this to go to Danbury. <br /><br />And one of our party while in Newtown remarked that it looked like Deliverance country. It did too! <br /><br />But I'd never have expected something like this to happen. One thing I do note about mass killings - they seem to happen more in the deep suburbs than in the cities. <br /><br />I have a feeling a lot of that is due to lack of opportunity to express oneself, to escape the clutches of religious idiocy, and to have available entertainment options. <br /><br />Makes me glad I grew up as a city boy.
