That's far more effectual than blowing oneself up in a bus. In America these days, it seems that violence ascribed to any political doctrine foreign to Bushism is vile and repugnant. But random violence is entertainment and intrigue. A couple of ex-FBI "consultants" speaking on the shootings in DC were quoted as saying the shooters, presumed to be a pair, were getting a "heroin-like high" from each successful kill and that they "for whatever reason decided to level the playing field, thumbing their nose at law enforcement and society." See? Just a couple of kids having fun with Daddy's semi-automatic hunting rifle. Harmless! -Ian.
