    True, I mean anyone who does thist is a sandwich or so short of a picnic. But add that to what I see more and more with today's generation of kids....parents who are more concern with them being "happy" than prepared....and shit happens. You put a halfass picnic on the tablecloth and ....tada.

    And I believe he deserves to die too now. I just can't imagine the burden felt by parents of a person who would do this. He's changed their lives too.

    Shit has always happened and will always happen. I don't think one can be blamed on "kids these days" or "parents these days" or anything these days.

    Judging millions of students on one person might not be the best way to look at the entire group.

    Twitter had this gem this morning, from the NRA. Up for about 3 hours. Now deleted.

    @NRA_Rifleman Good morning, shooters. Happy Friday! Weekend plans?

    Jessica Ghawi wrote a blog post noting that she also was nearly part of the Toronto mall shooting, too -- she decided at the last minute not to go to the sushi restaurant right where the shooting took place and went outside. Moments later, she was watching police take the victims out.

    From early reports, he doesn't seem all that "mentally ill" -- he apparently made quite detailed and logical plans on how to proceed with his planned activity.

    I don't give a fuck either way. Give him the needle.

    Taking it down is about as close to a comment as you'll ever get out of them. The NRA, if I'm not mistaken, as a matter of policy, steadfastly refuses to comment on rampage shootings.

    John Nash won a Nobel Prize in Economics.

    Sylvia Plath wrote timeless poetry.

    Your point?

    Either of them commit multiple murder?

    That's the point.
