I mean, it does rather make sense to do something you wouldn't normally do if you thought the world was going to end. Of course, it isn't, but someone who both thinks that's the case and is a bit "mentally unstable" would probably do something violent before it happened.

Likely the amount of shootings and crime in general will go back to "normal" after the 21st.

And so begins the conspiracy theories.

I graduated from high school on June-11-2011. I'm 19 right now. I'm turning 20 in December. I like playing video games, and board games. I like reading Sci-Fi, and World War II novels, and what not.

Explain things like World War 2 and the things the N@zi did in it.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

This apple is brown, and rotten. This orange on the other hand, is in relatively average shape. So the orange is definitely the preferable option.
----------You can't compare apples and oranges. You're so dumb.

Probably not. When ever a shooter succeeds in causing enough trauma to elicit a strong enough psychological stress, it becomes a mass communication phenomenon. The press cover it like mad, society at large disproportionately becomes obsessed about violence, smaller incidents become more noticed, some people who already intended to kill people put their plans into motion sooner than they intended. Perhaps a few copy cats come about. That is it.

I have yet to see any reason to believe there is any unusual amount of violence going on.

It's obviously the fault of videogame developers and the full-frontal nudity in Mass Effect.

And the fact that murder rates have gone down dramatically since those times.

Yeah, I thought this myself aswell.

Inb4 mass suicide/looting on the 21st.

  • 12.15.2012 4:16 PM PDT

I have to agree. People think they have nothing to lose so they live out their twisted desires.

Just remember that no matter how terrible you feel, or how much you want to let go, there are people who care about you and love you.

The shooters were all hired by the government to try to brainwash us into thinking that guns are evil.
