Well I haven't seen anyone else posting about it on my friends group.. nor do I intend to delve into the tragedy of it all. I find it staggering that one kid managed to kill over 30 people in less than three hours. This is the kind've shit you'd expect to see in Natural Born Killers, not in real life. What's even more disturbing is that these ( Read more... )

I think I was pretty angry when I wrote this. My point was that we are a very vunerable society. Our own security becomes overlooked and people become surprised when something terrible happens. There's been some recent success with foiling terrorist plots lately but that is only one group of killers. I just don't see how we can correct our own problems now :/ Do I know you Anonymooose?

I think correcting our own problems can be considered Every Man For Himself.
What are we vulnerable to? Fear?
I was just curious as to why you thought those things. You didn't give many examples to prove your point.

And no, you don't know me. I just look on peoples livejournals and blogs and see if I can get into any discussions.

Hmm I'll try to elaborate further for you. I live in Philly, murder capital USA. Why are there so many homicides here? I'm not sure but I think that poverty and education has a lot to do with it. Can something be done about it? Sure but it will never be completely fixed. The same can be said with terrorism. There would have to be a lot of profiling and descrimination to foil every plot. Right now they're using informants which seems to be working well, but how long will that last? I'm getting off topic here. Going back to serial killers. It's just too hard to distinguish who is full of shit and who is a leigitimate nutcase. What makes us vunerable is our own freedom. I don't know if this makes any sense. but if you want to talk further.. or have some other topics perhaps.. feel free to email me. I love getting in depth
