Am I wrong for not "feeling" after todays Virginia Tech masacre? I mourn for the families and friends of those who lost their lives, but I guess I'm not "shocked". I see it as a generational thing.
Sixth grade, 20 April, the nations first big school shooting occured. Only a year before that 1 person was killed in the Springfield Oregon shooting. It seems, having "grown up" with these things that one becomes slightly less traumatized by them, by death.
33 is the death count so far, which is the biggest shooting spree in our nations history, but for some reason, having lived through Springfield, Columbine, 8 year-old bringing guns to school, snipers in DC, and more, this newest even seems to just be another blip on the radar.
