yeah it's hard either way. do americans really need to know about every shooting? they're major events that unite us as a nation, so i think the answer to that is yes. but at the same time, plastering the face of every shooter on every website like the media has done for each of the past few major shootings might convince another troubled individual to do it themselves just like ebert suggested
