I too have relatives in the area, Snide One. They kept on with their lives, and did so despite a muted sense of terror that the places they felt were normal and routine to them had suddenly become untrustworthy and possibly lethal. I am sure the last six victims had made similar decisions. The attention on the "circus" as you call it, is a result of caring about humans in harm's way, at least in my case, and a hope that a rampant psychosis can be brought to bay and under control. Of course it is human nature to have a dangerous situation fix the attention more than a routine one, and the media, certainly, makes big business of playing on this fact. But that is not what is in the hearts and minds of individuals that I see being concerned.

Your misttribution of motive to others reflects badly on your anonymous self.
