This is the post VT shooting blog from the guy who is the writer/artist of "Arsenic Lullaby". I found this very satisfying to read. enjoy.
thirty two students actually learned something yesterday on a college campus. which to me is news because learning rarely happens at such a location.
two things about this event are driving me insane. FIRST every newscast has someone saying “i can’t imagine why someone would do this”…really? you can’t imagine? what kind of boring passionless namby pambly sheltered-ass life are you living?! you can’t IMAGINE that anyone out there is in pain? or is crazy? or has been/is being pushed to the edge by stress? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? if you can’t imgaine why someone would do this that you are the REASON SOMEONE WOULD DO THIS! YOU are the asshole picking winning lotto numbers while some poor bastard is behind you in line trying to get home in time to spend 5 minutes with his kids before he goes to his second job…YOU are the asshole who is driving to slow, YOU are the asshole that is interfereing with silly made up rules and regulations and such, while someone who is trying to acomplish something. YOU are the asshole who is going on and on about how great your life is while the poor schmuck in the booth behind you just lost his mother to cancer. YOU, you stinky lifeless zombie who can’t “imagine” why someone would do this, should be sent out of the country and replaced by an imagrant who actually LIVES. this guy was sick and deranged and perhaps evil…but i can easily “imagine” many many things that would push him this far.
SECOND where were the MEN?! the MEN?!!! this was not a high school this was a college campus ages 18-26, that is draft age people…yet 32 “adults” managed to let themselfs be killed by ONE GUY. ONNNNNNEEE GUUUYYYY!!!!! killed . thirty two fat domesticated declawed housecats, wandering in the forest filled with vicous animals. this is a disgrace. it makes me sick. please…someone tell me a story of some able bodied MAN who saved some lives by charging at this guy…no no no they all had to LIVE. there lives are so precioous that they couldn’t risk it…why they have to go home and play warhammer. they had to go back to the dorm to see if thier parents sent them a check for a new ipod. for that matter how did they not manage to even scurry away?! from ONE GUY?! if i hear one more “mother” talk about how she’s pulling her child out of this school because it’s not safe, i’m just gonna snap. 1. a college age student is not a CHILD 2. NO PLACE IS SAFE. if you want your child to be SAFER you should get him/her to realize how dangerous the world is…maybe that person will start to be aware of his/her surroundings…pay attention to what is going on around him/her…know where an exit is…now what the SOUND OF GUNFIRE IS! there was ONE story so far about someone sacrificeing himself so that others could escape…A 75 YEAR OLD MAN WHO WAS A WWII HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR. a 75 year old man had to step infront of gunfire…anyone…and i pray that somehow this finds you, …anyone who was saved by this MAN…YOU MAKE ME SICK. YOU should have been saving HIM…what kind of human trash are you to scurry away and leave an old man to take a bullet for you. The THOUGH of running away, while some decrepid old gramdpa shows defiant courgae makes me physically sick. you are the worst kind of human being on the planet. you give cowards a bad name…i’m shocked that you didn’t push him down to aid in your escape…from the ONE GUY. ONE guy with a 9mm pistol and a 22. some of you don’t know much about guns because you have lives sheltered lives and until now perhaps never thought you would have one sneak it’s way into your sunnyshine, rainbowy, pot filled world. I will explain them to you…a 22 is the smallest bullet there is. it is less than a quarter of an inch and a friend of mine got shot with one, from a block away, and it bounded off his leather jacket…this is what you use to hunt squirrles and you usually have to shoot them twice. the 9mm was a “Glock” brand hand gun. deadly, idiot, proof never jams or fails…holds at best 15 bullets. this means he had to STOP AND RELOAD…probably four or five times because it’s not like a video game, shooting a moving target with a handgun is VERY HARD TO DO. yet with all this 32 people still managed to let themselfs be killed. 32 did not run fast enough, or God forbid, attack the guy and disarm him.
there is nothing wrong with living in the suburbs…away from violence, with a nice house , and nice neighbors and having no problems other than who gets to pick up little Sally from soccer practice..it is when you FORGET that the rest of the world is very different that you become a problem…you become a fat dumb slow sheep that some brave 75 year old goat has to die to save.
