        @Apathetic_Cynic @usatoday It's a sign of our culture trying to make exceptions, 4 every behavior we cannot justify. Sometimes shit just is

        @Apathetic_Cynic @usatoday More importantly it's downright fucking dangerous to legitimize it, by blaming it on something else..

        @Rxercist Yep, this is the fallout of Society's lack of value for human life! No more no less. It's not the guns, bombs, or understanding

        @Apathetic_Cynic It's so easy to blame other things and lighten the burden on the shoulder's of those responsible.

        @USATODAY And so begins the part I detest. Where we "understand" them. Like rich white boys shooting up theaters and schools, I don't care!

        @TheFeministGOP @usatoday we try to understand so that possibly we can prevent it from happening at all.

        @TheFeministGOP I agree as well. And that may be the answer. So often in these cases it turns out that the people felt outcast and isolated
