... I just read a too-small article about a town that had the most deadly day school violence. It wasn't with guns. It wasn't even recent, happened about 80 years ago. Pre-big an/or constant media, so when a big national event of interest happened 3 days later, the media forgot about those small town farm people and followed Lindergs's Cross-Atlantic Flight to Paris instead. And in the small town, the people appreanetly didn't talk about it. Hence it is little known. I thought it was appropriate that this get mentioned, and that secret madmen hell bent on evil are very hard to stop. Plus that violence in the U.S.A is actually nothing new, though justas terrible.
