Sorry, but this isn't "cool", this is sad. Does this sound like a stable society to you, or one of the edge of a nervous breakdown? All countries have insane, criminal violence, but this was carefully planned pathological destructive and self-destructive madness. Just for comparison, in the UK some farmers were angry at the banks. They took muck spreaders up the high street and liberally sprayed the banks with manure. Not everyone who's angry is a psychopath... Throw away your guns, boys.
