I have chosen copycat killing topic because I haven’t been aware of the phenomenon before. Therefore I think it is very exciting to work with it, and hopefully I find out more about it. I think it is amazing and horrifying how murders can get their inspiration from television, movies, computer etc – and copycat the actions they see.
What is copycatting? – The phenomenon
It means to reproduce things you experience
If you hear a cool sentence, or a new word. If you see your idol in tv, you can copycat the actions. You can have a fashion idol, whose style you copycat. You can copycat your fathers’ way to do things.
The person you chose to copycat from is your role model. Or a game can be the source.
When you see a person copycat something you can decide to copycat his actions, and do it even better than him. That creates a chain reaction.
