Rage over the massacre at Virginia Tech is one thing. However, I really believe that one of the worst things anyone could possibly do is pay attention to the video that suspected gunman Cho Seung-Hui made announcing his decision to attack the students.
Reports have swirled that Cho had made the video during the intermission between the shooting rounds at the university; he'd even gone as far as to send it to NBC. But should it really have been broadcast at this time? Personally, I don't think so. It's nothing more than fodder for the tabloids, and the immediate shift of focus by all the mainstream media from the concern over the sale of guns to this one dramatised video is more or less a desecration of the victims and survivors.
Cross Stinging Reality offers its condolences for the victims and survivors of the shooting on Monday.

Man, that was so tragic! That guys had serious mental problems. I wish everyone in that college would have helped him. But didn't do it. My heart goes out to all the victims of the shooting. What is next...?
