[lbo-talk] German school gunman 'kills 16'

[Mark Bennett]

That would be hard to say.  Certainly the early spree killers in post-WWII
America were national news for days: Howard Unruh, Starkweather,  Whitman,
and Speck (who isn't on the Wiki list - because he also raped one of his
victims?)  As I recall, even in the old days, when such things happened one
certainly heard about them.  Life magazine, the CNN of the day, devoted near
entire issues to Whitman's and Speck's crimes - with some incredible
photographs included in the stories.

Okay, over limit for the day.
