The common motivation among mass shooters is a desire for notoriety. To be known and remembered for something heinous. To kill a large number of unarmed innocent people with an easy to obtain military assault rifle.
- We should not speak or print the shooter’s names, ever
- We should not show their photos on the web, social media or television
- We should not tell their story or publicly discuss in detail their background
- We should deny them what they seek, attention and notoriety
The victims and families need us to document, publicize and memorialize their stories.
