that's ridiculous. i know i'm going to sound like an idiot saying this, but
YEAH OK colorado is sad but jesus christ if we just start letting it consume
our lives and just walk around going "wow that's really sad" it's just as
bad as going around telling clinton jokes. do you think sympathy makes the
world a better place? your wasting your time by upsetting yourself about
what? what are you gonna do? prevent it? not let it happen again? it's
like elizabeth dole saying the way she's going to stop the drug problem is
to rally america into a large anti-drug campaign...people have always wanted
drugs the same way people have always been violent...no, not everyone or
people in general but bad things are going to happen and you have to accept
that and stop moping around feeling sorry for everything.
