You are correct. I'm a Virginia Tech alumni. A roommate was wounded, and my academic advisor and several former professors of mine died. The killer had handguns. When NBC chose to air the recorded manifesto that Cho recoded after he killed two students, but before he had gone to Norris Hall to kill entire classrooms, I knew they were ringing a dinner bell for more killers. Gun availability hasn't changed. Media reporting has. However they shape the narrative by selecting who to interview. Many Parkland students blame the FBI and Broward County police for ignoring dozens of specific warnings regarding the killer. They aren't included in interviews, at all. I resent the fact that the media repeatedly ignore the recommendations from the American Psychology Association and report the name and picture of the killers, fueling copy cat incidents, and conveniently ignore this in favor of guns. When NBC gave the killer of my academic advisor his dying wish to get ratings, I knew that they don't care about victims. They just want ratings and the controversy that feeds them.
