I don't think there are really all that many mass shooting/suicides. There are too many, but the news media and the politicians play up Every. Single. Event. with endless 24/7 coverage. Makes the bad guy out to be a legend among all the other crazy people and inspires them to do likewise. <adjusting tinfoil hat> I think partially that might be intentional. Tragedies are good for ratings, and dead bodies make props for speeches.
