Yeah, I spent most of Wednesday fact-bombing VT convos with the day's headline of "176 dead in baghdad bombings".
Mind you, a lot of the people who died at VT weren't white. It resonates so much with people because they like to pretend thay're safe in their day to day lives. That direct violence only happens "over there". Nevermind the fact that more people died in car accidents that day than from gunfire.
