Devant ce drame insensé, tout ce qui me vient à l'esprit, ce sont les paroles et l'air de la chanson titre de l'album Nebraska de Bruce Springsteen, dont voici un extrait :
''I saw her standin' on her front lawn
just twirlin' her baton
Me and her went for a ride sir
and ten innocent people died
From the town of Lincoln Nebraska
with a sawed off .410 on my lap
Through the badlands of Wyoming
I killed everythin' on my path...''
