random acts of violence not so random anymore...

This article about Sarah Walker and pointing fingers in the wrong direction really makes me think. I mean, it's so much easier to point the finger at someone who knows the victim and/or is angry/wants revenge/whatever. It makes it easier for everyone to sleep at night because now there is a reason for killing that person and "being in the wrong place at the wrong time" will never happen to any of us. Everyone has thought that before... "It will never happen to me." I see why the media is so quick to point the finger. Once there is a victim, there has to be a murderer and it's easier for the media to pick someone angry and related to the victim.
