The concern is in setting a precedent that anyone can have a wide hearing of their ideas by killing people, which creates copycats in the future. (We have seen this happen with, e.g., school shootings.)
- BigZaphod 17y agoWell the fact is that every time something like this happens there's a huge media splash about it, it's analyzed to pieces, and (as far as I'm aware) there's almost never copycats of the same magnitude or scope. If you're looking to take some kind of memorable action to get people to notice you, probably the least effective way is to do the same thing someone else just did.
