The gun control argument stops now. I know it's fun to argue about it in the heat of the tragedy when you can get all worked up about it but it's pretty disrespectful and if you don't care enough about the issue to make a separate topic for gun control then you don't care enough to shit on the tragedy by exploiting it. A gun control topic can be found here http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=313472
Also stop posting links to his facebook. TL will be no part of an unconfirmed witch hunt.

I can already imagine the lawyers lining up at his doorstep.
is it that hard for people to realize that there are many people with the same name?
as for the shooting...who would shoot kids in a kindergarten class? must have a serious mental illness and be a psychopath. and there were 2 of them at least.. this has got to be one of the worst tragedies to ever happen on US soil
I really don't understand the difference between killing a bunch of kindergartners or a bunch or movie-goers, or a bunch of high-shool kids, or a bunch of university students. It's always abhorrent and inexplicable when innocent people get killed. Is it really that much easier to justify going to a bingo-hall and mowing down a bunch of elderly people? We can't explain this guy, or anybody like him without going to that place ourselves.

Whether you believe me or not, I do.
yeah same.
although this is different, when its in your country or state its a lot more real, iraq is a war zone, while this doesnt make it any less sad, it is more expected.

The difference is, usually when highschools or colleges get shot up it is by people who attend the school and have issues with specific people. Its horrible, unjustifiable, and wrong in every way, but the link is there. It is something to point at.
Shooting a young child is impossible to justify. Shooting 5-10 year olds that have done nothing is almost completely impossible to link, to justify for the average person. Because the deed is that much harder to understand, it is that much more evil, and worse. You are right, any death like this is horrible, but children(for most) are the hardest to accept the lost of.
Payam Toghyan @ROOT_TT1 @cnn fuck u for glorying these people, your industry is the main cause of all of this. im sure you guys are getting alot of hits tho, grats

I'm not in control of how much time the media spends discussing specific events, nor do I differentiate between innocent victims. I can't sympathize with a suicide bomber any more than I can with a mass murderer who shoots up a school, therefore my "care" is equal in regards to the victims of either scenario.
