okay. reading the news posts from seattle, i mean. just wtf? i wait for the reporting to unfold but it is scary to me to think that they could not even find a motivation. it is weirdly calm in the media thus far as to the fact that the victims were goth/ravers, many were underage and there were drugs found in the house. in fact, it seems that the seattle media is being very quick to spin it that there is no way this is anything but a terrible murder of innocent people and even fox is just reporting the basic facts (although they left out that the gunman was a fan of country...).

UPDATE:

The Stranger in Seattle has a pretty amazing oral history of the people who were in the house when the murders happened.
This is a chilling beginning portrait of the killer. Will anyone ever know more?

Also. Trenchcoats. outsiders. metal. will it unfold?

Philip Dawdy defends rave culture and has a hearbreaking quote from one of the friends of a victim. ""What was hurting you so bad? Why didn't he ask us for what he needed? Did he need a helping hand or love? I don't know what made him not a human being, or what was hurting him that bad." - this breaks my heart, it's the essence of a kind of forgiveness I've only seen in my truly faithful xtian friends.

A good response to questions about why the news continues to search for answers about the murderer's intent.

The article above refrences getting kids in on the dialogue and creating a more supporting and understanding community about the rave scene in Seattle and a gesture of faith reprints a high school newspaper's story about the Seattle rave scene. Pretty cool.
