I think you need to look at both of your shoulders, and remove the tabloid chip. The issue under discussion here is about a horrific crime, and people are wondering why it is happening in our society, and what is being done/will be done about it; and all you do is decide it's "boring" and drag out the tired old rhetoric about crime falling "in general" and how tabloid readers think exactly what the editors want them to think.
I repeat, is there anything new to say that hasn't been said on other threads about similarly horrific crimes. Go on, take up the challenge and tell me.

Crime IS falling generally. Violent crime IS NOT and that is indeed worrying.
