The Star-News recently reported on the 11th anniversary of the heinous bombing at Oklahoma City in 1995. The death toll of 168 was described as the deadliest act of domestic terror in U.S. history. My question is, what of the approximately 300 massacred at Wounded Knee in the state of South Dakota in December 1890?

Dave Cullen's new book about the worst school shooting in American history, simply titled "Columbine," is a staggering work of journalism. In the course of debunking the myths that persist about the shooting, Mr. Cullen uncovers what really happened on that tragic Tuesday in April and offers a largely unseen glimpse into the minds of the killers. That glimpse is a terrifying one, a look into pure psychopathy that cannot fully be understood without first realizing just how much we continue to underestimate the scope of Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold's aims on April 20, 1999.

OSLO, Norway - A Norwegian who dressed as a police officer to gun down summer campers killed at least 80 people at an island retreat, police said early Saturday. It took investigators several hours to realize the full scope of the massacre, which followed an explosion in nearby Oslo that killed seven and that police say was set off by the same suspect. Police initially said about 10 were killed at the forested camp on the island of Utoya, but some survivors said they thought the toll was much higher. Police director Oystein Maeland told reporters early Saturday they had discovered many more victims.

OSLO, Norway - Police arrived at an island massacre about an hour and a half after a gunman first opened fire, slowed because they didn't have quick access to a helicopter and then couldn't find a boat to make their way to the scene just several hundred yards offshore. The assailant surrendered when police finally reached him, but 82 people had died before that. Survivors of the shooting spree have described hiding and fleeing into the water to escape the gunman, but a police briefing Saturday detailed for the first time how long the terror lasted - and how long victims waited for help.

WASHINGTON - Storm science has greatly improved tornado warnings in recent years. But if that's led anyone into a sense of security, that feeling has taken a beating in recent weeks. Super Outbreak 2011, on April 25-28, killed more than 300 people in the South and Midwest. Less than a month later, a devastating tornado took more than 120 lives around Joplin, Mo. This now could be the deadliest year for tornadoes since 1950, based on an assessment of National Weather Service figures.

The Tragedy in Tucson." Another catchy name for the latest devastation. While I'm generally an upbeat, glass-is-half-full kind of person, I admit the cumulative effect of incidents like this can take their toll. At least temporarily. While I'm in this mindset about mindless violence, the phrase that keeps echoing is "restoring one's faith in humanity.
