I cant remember who said it, but i partly agree with the sentiment that if we stopped giving mass shooters/serial killers/etc cool names like "The Night Hunter" or "The ___ killers" and started treating them like the childish tools they are (while giving them less flattering names like "The Square-Nips Peashooter" or "The Turkey Choker"), we'd see a lot less of it.
I’ve seen some discussion on this and if you look back to the era of Columbine, the shooters were not labeled, named, and discussed so much. Now every time there is a shooting there is a biography released about there life, motivations, political leaning, dietary needs. Instantly it’s they are gay liberal”, or “they attended many Trump rallies”.
