I do like how the media is trying to give you all the facts it can on the shooting. This doesn’t mean they shouldn’t look over some of these other events that are important. I think the shooting was sad and wish it could have ended without that level of violence. However, that is old news and is being played up too much. There have been other shootings that have been talked about and over shown besides this one. Some examples of this are Sandy Hook shooting, and the two shootings in Texas. These had more deaths then this one. The two in Texas are one of George Hennard driving his pickup truck into a school lunch room and then shooting 24 people to death. The other shooting is of former marine Joseph Whitman killing sixteen and wounding thirty more by shooting them from a tower at the University of Texas. The cops had to kill Joseph while George killed himself. This event was not far off in years from Sandy hook. George’s was in 1991. That is just ten years apart, yet didn’t receive as much notice by news reporters. This could be due to the popular nature of some recent social media inventions like Twitter and Facebook. These inventions coupled with mobile devices makes receiving news faster and easier than ever before. That in itself doesn’t make this shooting more important. Only more easily accessed to the information regarding
