Does is seem like random acts of blind violent rage are on the rise?

Asked by Captain_Fantasy (11447points) February 18th, 2010

I’m reading about the plane crash in Austin TX where a man burned down his own house and proceeded to get in his small plane and crash it into the IRS building downtown.

This makes me recall other random acts of violence such as the college teacher who went on a gun rampage because she was denied tenure.

It also seems like domestic murder/suicides are a more commonplace occurrence than they were 5 years ago.

Are Americans going crazy in greater numbers?
