i don't' see it as a trend. it's horrible, yes, but it's not new.

do you remember the song "i don't like mondays" by the boomtown rats? that song was about a 16 year old girl in 1979 who opened fire at a school ,when asked why she did it, she replied "i don't like mondays." in 1975, ottawa canada, some dude shot up his school.

as awful as it is, kids have been violently "acting out" for quite some time. maybe not all school shootings, but murders.

i saw a video of an interrogation of a kid who killed another kid (they were both under 15 years old) and i also remember a story (don't know if this is true, but we all talked about it) about a kid who killed another kid "because he was fat and i didn't think anyone would miss him." kids have been fucked up for years.

there has probably been a good number of similar acts by youths in the past, we just didn't hear about them because there was no internet and immediate cell phone picture coverage of the event.
