That's exactly what I thought about similar events in Birmingham (with knives not guns) last September, and I was correct, it's now mostly disappeared from the media altogether.
Ditto for likewise atrocities in Reading and Glasgow last summer (again involving knives not guns).
And as ghastly as the Plymouth incident is, to put it into context and perspective, it's hardly 9/11 or even 7/7 (central London in 2005) all over again.
Nor is it August 2011.
