If everyone would have denounced the kids participating in the initial instances as being pieces of human garbage and they never made the news... it would likely have not happened again. Instead, they get 3 months of 24/7 news coverage, endless debate and discussion, vigils and memorials etc. Hardly a disincentive to a troubled kid looking to go out with a bang.
All acts of violence typically spike after news coverage of acts of violence. Suicides spike after news coverage of suicides. etc etc etc.
