Sorry I got so snippy too. I was just taking a guess as to the motivations of the shooting. And it is almost always one of those two scenarios in a school shooting.

And which one it turns out to be has a big affect on the media's treatment of the event and it's usefulness to the gun grabbers out there.

The "black gang" shootings disappear from the agenda the moment the race of the perpetrator and victims are released. The "white kook" scenario is used to play the heart strings of suburban moms from coast to coast.

The larger question is why the media, the gun-grabbers, and the surburban soccer moms don't really care about black-on-black shootings.

My mother was saying from the start that the DC sniper was not American just based on the word 'policeman'. She said most of time Americans refer to law enforcement as 'police officers'. LOL... my mother should be chief.

The surburban soccer moms are surrounded by other soccer moms. They probably know black soccer moms as well, and so they don't care about the poor black people shooting themselves. Actually I don't care either when the great unwashed shoot eachother, unless some innocent baby gets a bullet in the crossfire. So I think people don't care about black-black shooting unless say it happens between two filthy rich blacks in an upscale area. That's more a class issue than anything else.

I RESERVE MY WORST VITROL FOR THE MEDIA. If they didn't show the civil rights activists' (who are usually the gun grabbers), they'd never have an audience. Here in NYC, the DA threw a black man in jail for a weekend for shooting a man about to attack his son sleeping in bed. The man was crawling through the window and he plugged the bastard. What made it is worse was that the man owned the gun legally and was a Desert Storm vet. There is no news story in a same race incident. It makes for great news, and stirring up that foul, dinosaur Jesse Jackson. As if black and white people are incapable of just being mean to eachother. The media will turn anything between black and white a three ring circus.

Besides showing black-black crime causes liberals to get big erections over all the new government program needed to help those 'poor black people'.
