People have been talking about Virginia Tech all day. I am totally stunned, and I've been having so, so many thoughts. My mind has been screaming all day long "How many people died... We kicked students out of the building after they threatened to do the same thing here... Could that really happen at WJU... Is it wrong for me to want to watch the news... Where is God... What do I say to people who ask me where God is... Why do I feel like I have to watch the news right now... Is it a good thing that we all have access to this... Why don't we get this upset when suicide bombers kill thirty people in Jerusalem... How long will it be until this story gets buried beneath the next days news... Why would someone do this... Who is responsible for this... Why didn't they close school sooner... 30,000 people starved to death today and we don't care... What would we do if this happened here... Am I insensative for thinking about myself... I wish he hadn't killed himself... Part of me wishes someone else would have killed him... Horrible ... ... ..."
I don't know what to think. I don't know what to say, and I'm pretty sure there isn't anything appropriate to say. I don't know why I'm even bothering to write any of this, but I did feel like I should say something.
It's horrible.
