Bored

People have to be bored out of their minds. I really cannot understand otherwise why people would go the trouble of:

• messing up a bus driver
• attacking an ambulance worker
• tossing a brick from a highway overpass
• making threats against middle schools
• sending envelopes filled with a white powder to the office

I mean, hasn't everybody got a Wii by now? Has the credit crisis really put people at home, suffering intense boredom? Are people that desperate that when their livelihood ends, they start doing insane stuff? What good does that accomplish?
