Here's an official timeline of events.
September 14, 2008 - Suzanne Collins publishes a book called The Hunger Games
March 12, 2012 - The film adaptation of The Hunger Games is first released
December 14, 2012 - Adam Lanza shoots a bunch of kids and teachers at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Sandy Hook, CT
May 23, 2014 - Elliot Rodger shoots several people in Isla Vista, CA
June 17, 2015 - Dylann Roof goes into a black church in Charleston, SC, and kills 9 churchgoers

However, not all is as it seems.
Suzanne Collins lives in Sandy Hook, CT, where Adam Lanza allegedly shot children. Her book is about children being sent to battle to the death. The school was demolished shortly after the event, and the demolition crew were legally bound to secrecy with regard to what they saw there.
The father of Elliot Rodger was an assistant producer of the Hunger Games films. His name is Peter Rodger.
Dylann Roof was arrested in Shelby, NC, after fleeing the site of the shooting. However, this is the same town where The Hunger Games was filmed.
It is important at this point to remember that the US government repealed its ban on propaganda aimed at Americans in 2013. It was signed into law in January of that year and took effect (officially) that July. That means that literally everything on TV or in any other form of media can be completely fabricated in order to pursue a political agenda. It's noteworthy that politicians immediately seized the opportunity to push their gun control agenda, before the alleged events could even be sorted out completely or the families able to grieve.
Simply put, media and government have no credibility. Sure, there are bad people who do bad things, but when things like this all seem linked, it's best to take a step back and think logically instead of emotionally.
