Calif. prof.'s email reveals shooting plot

[plank white]

SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) — Rainer Reinscheid was into his second bottle of wine when he wrote a chilling email titled, "a good plan," detailing how he wanted to get revenge on the people he blamed for his son's suicide.

WTF is it with these cowards who can't deal with their problems and want to kill everyone else?

Is it just me, or have these stories just been coming out of the woodwork since the Aurora shooting? I have serious doubts about that shooting being a liberal plot to further an anti gun agenda (I mean I have no doubt they are using it to further an anti gun agenda, but I do seriously doubt that they intentionally orchestrated the whole thing and time it with the UN Small Arms Treaty solely for that purpose). But I have never seen these kinds of things crop up in this kind of frequency and I certainly haven't even seen this many get caught in the planning stages. Something about this mass of foiled shootings that I seem to hear about a new addition to every day is just off, and I wouldn't be surprised if this part actually IS a conspiracy on somebody's part.

It's just the way the media works. When a big shooting happens, they report pretty much every other shooting that occurs in the country for the next few weeks. Happens every time.

THink back to Columbine. Jeez, every kid who said the word gun got suspended after that. People are stupid. People are sick. I will tell you this too. The sheeple are worse than the culprits. Which one os more sickening? The whacko who kills several people, or the masses who can't get enough coverage and fine details? People eat this crap up. Face it, the people of this country LOVE sick and disturbing news. It sells. We are a money driven people. If this crap didn't sell, they wouldn't show it. If people didn't buy it up in wholesale quantity, they wouldn't sell. 100 years ago they would not print this sort of thing out of decency and respect for the families. Now they want interviews. "How did it make you feel when your kid got his head blown off?" What kind of sick !@#$%^&*( country is it when people crave this sort of news reports???

People have somehow got it in their head that freedom of the press is a right to invasive practices. YOU DO NOT have a right to know ANY details pertaining to some random man whose wife was raped a strangled. You do NOT have a right to know ANY personal information in a tragic situation. IT"S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS! Likewise, the people of this country seem to think they have a right to know what's going on everywhere. NONE OF US has a right to know what our military is doing specifically. Thanks you Reagan for being the only president in my lifetime to tell the media to piss off. We need a president to act like Reagan did during Grenada. Instead we have Heraldo Riveras giving away troop positions in real time. They should have tossed him in front of a M249 for treason cause that's what it was.

Someone tell me why they think we have a right to know names and faces and the actual bullet placement that killed each one of the people in this last shooting? OR the names and personal interviews that the media extorts from bereaved survivors and families? Am I the only one who'd like to see some of these media groups burn to the ground?
