The Dink Network

The people who would off themselves in their basement see the shootings being spread around, the shooters becoming well known. They decide to kill a bunch of people, dying in a show of horrible 'glory' that makes them go from dying a nobody to dying a somebody. People who seek fame don't care if it's good or bad, especially if they're going to kill themselves.

(A side note: Even if the guy was Christian and asked for forgiveness, he'd still go to Hell because it's suicide. This particular tidbit is so that the question isn't brought up. Either way, the arsetard's going to burn eternally.)
