Here's my deal....these guys want to go out in a blaze of glory....be remembered....even if it is for something horrible In 1957 Charles Starkeather went on a murder spree in Nebraska and killed 11 people and was put to death in the electric chair. Every damn year they do a retrospective of the whole thing in the Omaha paper...they go all out on the big anniversary years (the 5s & 10s) ....in 2007 not a week after that years big story ran, Robert Hawkins shoots up a mall in Omaha killing 9 and his suicide note states "... just think tho, I'm gonna be fuckin famous [sic]." ... in 2010 a band puts out a song about a kid just like him and uses his first name...perhaps you've heard it, it was a huge hit. "Due to the opening lyrics, "Robert's got a quick hand," many have speculated that the song is a reference to Robert Hawkins, perpetrator of Omaha's Westroads Mall shooting." --wikipedia Even though the band denies it, the urban legend was born here and many are convinced. He got got exactly what he wanted. He's fuckin' famous... We glorify criminals in our society both real and fake...and it isn't anything new. What is new is the access to the information and the weapons. JMHO
