classy

this is pretty ridiculous. i'm all about making fun of shit, especially when people deserve it, but even i wouldn't have gone as far as dressing as va tech victims. i'll talk a lot of shit about how autistic people shouldn't be allowed to purchase firearms, but even i wouldn't make fun of the victims.

i don't know if i posted about it at the time, but for halloween 2006 i knew someone who dressed up as cory lidle, complete with a cardboard airplane and scars. that didn't bother me, so i feel pressed to make a distinction. if you get a pilots license, think you can fly, then crash your plane, you really did it to yourself (and possibly anyone else on the plane or hit by the plane). but the va tech victims weren't guilty of anything except being at the wrong place at the wrong time.

i do have to say, though, that this news does not completely surprise me. in fact, it's about exactly what i would expect from people in pennsylvania.
