Collage Project

I originally wanted my collage to be about the hysteria of mass shootings on schools, hence all the people with guns.  I chose not to go all the way with that idea because I thought too many guns would look bad, plus there wasn't enough room for much else in spots that made sense.  I instead opted for all the pictures of faces and cats to represent the confusion and paranoia that are often instigated by the media after a mass shooting.  Fear mongering is a common tactic used by the mainstream media after a shooting to make the public scared of guns and to shift blame away from the real issue of the link between the killers and their history of mental illness and the prescription drugs that accompany them.
