How sad is it that people will take this sad occassion and exploit it for their own political agendas! There are some really sick people out there. There is NO corelation between the war in Iraq and what happened in Blacksburg. There is no one to blame, EXCEPT the shooter. For those blaming society and how we need to change, go ahead and change it. Use other launching pads for your political agendas.
I have to apply the logic that others have used about Iraq and the dead there when they say mow many more people died on the higways of America over a certain period of time than our troops in Iraq.

By the same token more people died in the violence in Iraq in the past couple of days than did in this tragedy.

Doesn't make it right or OK but it's the same kind of logic.
