I refuse to watch it based on the fact that the guy disturbs me beyond belief.

That, and I believe that the media should stop focusing on the life of the killer and focus on the lives of those killed. Like the professor who was a holocaust survivor, who urged his students to flee as he was killed. You don't hear about him.

I actually heard about that at school today....

*cough*

But that's besides the point.

The media doesn't give a rat's ass about that... They want stories that grab people's attention. You only hear survivor stories in other things like books and documentaries.

So far, all the information I've gotten has come from the Express and the Examiner newspapers that I pick up at the Shady Grove Metro in the morning before classes (which I'm about to go to in.....*checks clock*...30 minutes)....and from the few PotD topics I've opened.

All this talk of this sick motherfucker is on my nerves. Who the fuck is supposed to care about his ass? It's more important to be concerned with the people who lost their lives. The only thing we needed to know was who the fuck that guy was, and now we do. Any other coverage should be directed at the families and at the school itself. Not some damn video.

And as for this professor who is filled with ungodly amounts of win, why haven't we heard more about him? That man knew that death was around the corner, and his instinct was to protect his students, giving up his own life so that they could have a chance to escape. Do you know how many people would have just saved themselves? But not him. He was too much of a man to do something like that. The world seriously needs more people like that.

You know...it's things like this that have made me not even began to allow myself to get sucked up in the goddamned media hype this is causing. I saw something on CNN about it, and when the idiot ass woman was talking about the killer, saying that he "set out on a plan to deliver CARNAGE (the bitch really did put emphasis on the word carnage) on the campus", and she said it with a smile on her face, I turned the shit off, and haven't turned it on since. Something major has happened, and the media has just overdramatized everything, making it be all about their coverage, and not about the actual events.

Refering to the woman smiling while talking about the shooter,

I was watching his room mates being interviewed and one of them couldn't keep a smile off of his face. I never wanted to be able to punch someone on TV more than I did then...
