Based on what info has been leaked out so far, what appears to have happened was that the contractor agency laid some guy off who was nearing retirement anyway, and he went back to blow away the young punk boss that got him fired.

Having had personal experience of one of these shooting episodes, I'm of the firm opinion that it's far MORE disrepectful to enable people at the breaking point to freak out and take other people on their suicidal rampages than it is to find some humor and help the healing process. Such as the news network that reported the shootings earlier this week at "Vagina Tech". Now, how do you think THAT one slipped by? If people want to talk seriously about these things, I can match pretty much anyone. Problem is, few people REALLY WANT to talk seriously because it will inconvience them...

Problem is, few people REALLY WANT to talk seriously because it will inconvience them... You know, in the part I snipped, you wrote about the "healing process". This wasn't a society-altering cataclysmic event. It was a murder-suicide. Society-altering cataclysmic events may need humor to deal with. In this case, it was an all-too-frequent (perhaps daily) tragedy. It mainly affects the lives of the immediate friends and families. I don't think your humor on Usenet can be rationalized as being somehow therapeutic.

We need to lock up all the loners, misfits, and nervous types TODAY. Hey, we think you're weird, so we're gonna throw you in an asylum just in case you're the 1-in-100,000,000 who wants to pull a Columbine or Virginia Tech or Texas Tower. Being laid off? Sorry, but we're also gonna lock you away and make you see a shrink, because, you know, you might come in tomorrow and try to kill your boss and co-workers on your last day. You never know, and we gotta keep the people safe! Bill of Rights? We don't need no stinkin' Bill of Rights...
