Last week, Matt lamented the recent shootings in the ghetto, where he resides.

But, violence isn’t limited to gun-toting pistoleros tearing up Trumbull. No, in the ‘burbs, we see more of the “postal” syndrome: Employee is fired, returns a week later to seek revenge on boss, shoots boss, innocents, turns weapon on himself. For example, right now the helicopters are circling my office building, as just such a gun-toting, disgruntled employee, has reportedly shot at least three people in an office building – literally across the street. He was an employee of an accounting firm, so I could make a crack about how he should be happy he doesn’t have to deal with tax-season this year, but that’s a little off-color, even for me.

What’s scary about this sort of violence, is that it seems a lot more random than urban violence. Shifty thugs can be avoided. Cubicle ambushes, pretty much can’t.
