Abstract
School shootings seem an intractable impasse. This essay attempts to deconstruct school shootings by philosophizing currere. Moving currere in a different direction—through philosophy, film and literature—I hope to raise questions, not solve problems. The unthinkable must be thought through although it might not be worked through. This essay attempts to break with traditional academic forms to raise different kinds of questions. Attempting to approach school shootings demands a multidisciplinary detour. Vulgar empiricism in the face of such violence gets us nowhere.
