Skink....I would love to sit down and talk to you about why you feel that way and get your input but this thread obviously is not the place so I reluctantly will let the opportunity pass.
I'm not pointing the finger at the victims. The shooter alone has the blood on his hands. The point I'm trying to make is this.

It needs to be implanted in our brains that if we are in that situation, there is a 95% chance we will die. The Columbine shooters, and this kid shot anyone they chose to, they didn't need to be provoked. If we should learn anything from this it is that you can't lie on the floor waiting for the calvary to show up. I'm not insulting the victims for not fighting back, but I would hope that other people can see how fewer people could have died if someone tried to take control.

This guy shot most of his victims multible times, I'm sure it was likely he had his back to someone at some point.

Now granted a hand gun is much more intimidating than a box cutters, but in the future people need to realize they will likely die if they do nothing. May as well try and end shit like this in the future while you are still alive.

All that said, I feel real bad for the victims and their family, but hopefully we can learn something. Most likely nothing will change... but we can hope.
