1. Check your syntax in that last sentence Neo.
2. I'm not worried about semantics. I'm worried about hypocrisy.
3. These events **** me up badly. Please don't think I'm being aloof.
4. The investigation has uncovered that the dude was simply looking for an event where he could cause the most damage. I used "country music" in a figurative sense. Could have been a Bruno Mars show and he still would have opened fire.
