I am less than happy posting this incident. The murderer killed four people in two sets of two, "in twenty-four hours." Better to include than to exclude, so here it is.

Indeed. Always been surprised at the amount of arson and relatively small end number given the media focus in more normal days.

Well yes, it's a reminder, but of what, not the world we live in ... rather a narrow view of killings in the US, not the world. Are killings in the US more or less then in the world?

At the moment, the Alabama incident does not seem to meet the "one emotional event" requirement and will not be included.

We live in a sick, diseased society where no one truly cares about each other, such is the extent that capitalism and nationalism has eroded our basic humanity

So to be clear, your definition of sick and diseased is 1 in almost 5,000,000 killed over a period of almost 5 months. Very creative.

Well hey, as long as it's not someone you know, eh?
