No joke. I acknowledge the fact that various students died. I saw some of their pictures on Yahoo!. It's really tragic really…

And no Patrick, I'm putting no blame on Bush. He really couldn't have done much to stop it at the time anyway. Although, Bush did make his appearance at the new memorial for these kids and a speech or something.

Really, there's no joke in this…

No funny pictures again. This is serious aswell. :(

Ok even putting in any trace of sarcasm is kinda insulting. Sorry, but I dont totally approve of this… If people blame the pres. they're really stupid and just looking for someone to blame this on. Yeah, its not political at all, though someone will find a way to tie it to pres. and politics. Lives were lost, when you have this happen to you one day, it want be something to joke around about. It really sucks…Ever had a close friend die? Well, its not easy to express.

Oh and at first glance I thought the blog was vagina tech. That wasnt a joke, I really did.

Dude, it's easy to acknowledge something, watch the news and you'll acknowledge it… but that has no effect on whether you feel for it or couldn't care less. If you have a stupid sarcasm tag, whether it's meant to offend or not, is making a joke out of something that is obviously not.

The murderer was mentally ill - there was very little anyone could do for it other than the counselling that was undergone on the murder before it all happened. If somebody is mentally ill you can hardly even blame them…

@ Zipper Head: yeah, me too. I just can't imagine why anyone would do something like that, although I guess I don't know what it's like to be mentally ill. And events like this are on the upsurge, as well, and not all by insane people.
