After much detailed research for a book I am writing entitled Ready to Pop : The Rise of Mass Murder in America, I have come to the conclusion that there are five factors in America today which have combined into a perfect storm to fuel mass murder including school shootings.

Most people are unaware of the vast gang netherworld.  They thing of movies like The Blackboard Jungle or The Warriors, but have no real idea of todays armies of the night.  I use that phrase because the film The Warriors was actually based on the novel Armies of the Night.
