This is just horrible.

Yes, it seems that way. Statistically, though, that's not the case. 2012 was an anomalously bad year and 2013 may turn out to be the same but, over the long view, shootings at schools have always happened.it seems that these things happen more and more often.
I am firmly of the opinion that the media is driving these things. If nothing else, someone who would have been a quiet little obit in the back of the newspaper gets to be front page all over the world for a few days. Need to go back to the old ways and forget the names of these types.

Nowadays, though, the media consistently throws them to the metaphorical front page and leaves them there.

2 DEAD IN NV SHOOTING - Misleading as one of the two was the perp and died of a self inflicted gunshot.
I am sure they will make him out to be a victim as well, somehow....some way....
IMHO he is a victim, but not of "gun violence" (God, I hate that term...). He's a victim of neglect and whatever else contributed to him snapping.
I think you read a little too far into that... Or maybe I worded it wrong. Could be both.
My point is, this could've been prevented relatively easily, just like the majority of these incidents, if the guy pulling the trigger had gotten the mental health care that he (rather obviously in most cases) needed.
