Well, I don't think the press will ignore the school shooting. But they will fail, as they always do, to address the issue head-on. Already the TV news says "police are trying to determine a motive," and "questions are being asked about whether greater security at the school might have helped."

What on God's green earth is the point of searching for a "motive" here? This is not an Agatha Christie novel. It doesn't matter if the teen who committed the murder had a grudge against the teacher, or was on drugs, or was hearing voices, or had written a manifesto. The problem is easy access to deadly firearms.
Similarly, it doesn't matter if locking doors or hiring a team of security guards would have stopped this particular shooter. The problem is easy access to deadly firearms.
