The thing is, I am interested in the killer.  I want to see the mysterious letter he may or may not have written (news accounts differ on this right now).

Why the difference?  I don't care about the victims but want any info I can get on the perpetrator, why?

I imagine because in my mind I already know the victims.  They are like me, they are (passably) normal.  They've read some books I like, some I hate.  They watch TV and movies and go to class and drink and sometimes skip class because they've been drinking.

They are like us.

He isn't.  Our killer here is the other and I want to see who he was.

All the blame-casting that is going on is misdirected.  It wasn't the administration's fault, and it wasn't the guns' fault.  It certainly wasn't gun control laws or lack thereof that caused this catastrophe.  It was the fault of one crazy person.

So why was he crazy, what kind of crazy was he?  What Ideas helped to form his world and reinforce his crazy?

That's what interests me.  I know the victims, even though I never knew them.  They are us.  I want to know our enemy so I can fight him.
