The shooting rampage presumably is an event already happened.  Consider this: The shooting rampage has caused us deep scares that will take a long time to heal.     Goodman Joined on Mon, Nov 7 2005 Senior Member 3,816 The name says it all!

	Puzzled  +  354889 Tue, 24 Apr 07 10:55 AM Hi, I would suggest that a logical sequence describing what is going to happen after what has happened requires a 'will' construction. To me there is a clash between 'will have caused' and the following 'for evermore' that doesn't really make sense. Puzzled Puzzled Joined on Thu, Apr 19 2007 New Member 11 Constructions
