More: Shooting Leaves 2 College Students Dead in Maryland, Police Say
Police in Prince George’s County say a University of Maryland student shot two housemates, one fatally, in an off-campus residence and then killed himself.
Is it just my perception, or has this shit become non-stop?

Well, you know what they say: the amount of media attention for an event such as Newtown makes quite a few other potential shooters (who might never have actually acted) go over the edge so it tends to cluster together.
With the amount of attention for such shootings at the moment that alone would explain an increase in such events.

So what’s the solution, don’t let anyplace more than 50 miles from the site of a murder know that one’s been committed, so these people will know they won’t be remembered and will, what, kill themselves quietly instead?
What’s next, official damnatio memoriea?

Its a few blocks down the road from me. I will wait to see what the scenario was and who are the “students” involved before making any conclusions.
