And since Al Gore invented it, him too. ...seriously though, I agree with you that it's ridiculous and offensive for them to begin a soapbox rant when presented with such a devastating and frightening event. It's always easier to put blame on a thing, like video games or violent movies or lack of proper nutrition (or whatever), and make THAT the reason someone blew a gasket and spiraled into a gigantic episode of violence; it's hardest to look at what really happened and to find the real reasons why, because those are the things that you can't ever forget. Those are the things you carry in your heart and soul for the rest of your life, and it's easier not to know them. I think we should blame the internets. And since Al Gore invented it, him too.
