Anyone else get wind of the Virginia Tech massacre? Here's some rather disturbing news for me, anyway:

Wiki
An eyewitness told the student newspaper, the Collegiate Times, that a gunman shot about nineteen people attending a German class in Norris Hall including the professor.

Why'd he have to pick on the German students? Why? sad

Have you ever wondered how, when something like this happens in the US, 33 are shot, all of the Western world seems to be in shock, it was all they talked about yesterday in the news here. When 33 are killed in Iraq, we get some small line in the paper and we think 'huh, that's not too many actually..'. Even when 3300 are killed in Iraq, we don't seem to mind much. I mean, it is horrible someone would do something like this and all, but the people in Iraq (and everywhere else there is a war going on) have families too. I feel much worse for them, I mean, they have to face this kind of s**t every single day. emo

Also, my dentist was saying yesterday that based on the number of the people murdered in the US every single day, you might say there was a war going on there.

And does anyone really care about how much Bush is going to pray for the people that died? I mean, I would rather like to know what he intends to do about it. The president shouldn't be a religious leader, but Bush seems to be on the way to becoming one. rolleyes

Sorry for the political rant, it's been on my mind for the last two or three days.

I really got depressed when I heard that a foreign language professor got killed.

Apparently he picked on the French students too.

But I do agree, ljosberinn. Americans for the most part seem to only care about themselves; I'm not proud to be one.

Why do we never hear anything in the news about Darfur? Why is our government not intervening?

Oh, uh, because the war in Iraq is over. Like, three years ago. Didn't you get the memo? >.>

And I wouldn't say Americans as a whole were ignorant. It's just the government and the media that feed the people on restricted information only. Not the average citizen's fault. And really, the fact that we, too, got so much news of it, I find it a bit too much. Especially since the only war we hear about here is Iraq, and there it's only very small clauses in the paper saying how many people were killed today. Yesterday they were talking to 'specialists' and psychiatrists, right now, even, the news are on and they're talking about weapons in the US. I think it's positive that they are talking about it, but still. :/

I'm talking about Darfur, not Iraq. gonk '

You know, mass genocide. At least 400,000 people killed (probably over 600,000).

That was over three years ago as well. ninja



My mind was on Iraq, so that's what I read, heh. Sorry!
I do admit I'm not too informed about these things, though. Haven't really taken the time to just sit down and read about it and since I don't watch TV or listen to radio, I often miss things. Never enough time in the mornings to read through the papers either. ._.
