Okay, this is weird, but here goes.

The decline in literacy standards in the USA is currently being traced by the written manifestos of mass-shooters, looking at the literacy levels over time, and initial reports are showing that the decline has become marked in the past 10 years.

This tells me two things:
1) the USA has enough mass-shooters (3 or more dead) to actually be able to use tis as a study, and
2) US killers really like to explain themselves before they go full-on Travis Bickle.

I thought I was getting a handle on the USA, but then something like this throws me out of whack...
