This article at Rawstory nails it. Stochastic terrorism, egged on by those who can not be held accountable for it. John Cole over at Balloon Juice has a few observations on it too.

I wonder if they think the deaths and injuries were worth it.
Of course they do, that's why they keep doing it. It's not just this one issue and one incident, there's an entire political media industry that profits from actively motivating people to act out of anger, fear, and hate. The money, votes, and influence it generates is worth more than the bodies that come along with it and nothing will change until that does.
