    Been to Taft, it is a very small town. By the looks of it doesn't seem to be a massive rampage either. Also Taft used to be called Moron. True story.

    You would prefer a single [2013] Best Shooting thread?

    Ban fingers. If someone is able to shoot up a place using their toes or tongue, then that person has earned the right to do so.

    I would really just prefer if the nation wasn't as fixated on things like this. If it's a huge news story, sure, but if it's an isolated incident I don't think it needs to be a big deal. The more coverage something like this gets, IMO the greater likelihood that attention seekers will follow. Really not a problem with the thread, that was a knee jerk reaction on my part, just a broader problem with the news media. I'm just venting.

    I was just teasing. I totally agree with you. We glorify/glamorize it so much that copycats know how they want to 'go down'.
