Is there a difference between 10 murders in 10 minutes, and 10 murders over a month, or a year? I don't know if there's a right answer but to me I don't think there's a difference. I'm only thinking about it now as I type this, but 10 rock bludgeonings over anything less than probably 18 months would have my attention as much as a 10 victim school shooting. Or 10 shootings over 18 months, for that matter.
Of course, over those 18 months you could shoot 10 people a hundred times over, so there's that to consider I guess. I just think it's strange that time figures into things.
