RE: Deadliest Single-Shooter Attack in US History
Unfortunately, our internet age hasn't really solved our information problem.
The same sentiments were had in the aftermath of the Waco standoff, OKC bombing and 9/11.
The world hasn't changed.
The internet has changed our expectations of information availability.
This lack of availability leads to frustration, which tends to lead to aggression, which makes things worse.
Fourty years ago (before the 24/7 news cycle) we got our news slower, but more accurately.
We can't have it all, instaneously. Nor should we.
It takes time for us to absorb and process information.
Much like liquor, imbibing and processing too much, too fast can easily lead to highly volatile events, which (as a country) we can't socially afford to have.
This too will pass.
