Oh, the humanity.

Remember the Virginia Tech shooting? Now we have the Northern Illinois University shooting.

On the 14th of February, the lives of the families and friends of five Illinois residents took a turn for the worst. Some people in Illinois now don't have a friend, a brother, a sister, a son, or a daughter, that they had the previous morning.

On the morning of Valentine's Day itself, a man interrupted a routine lecture. He then proceeded to pump a shotgun and fire into the first two rows. People were screaming, running. He fired again, and again. When his bucks were spent, he pulled a pistol from his pocket, and carried on.

After which he turned it on himself and put a bullet in his brain.

The similarities to Virginia Tech, which occurred less than a year ago(last April, to be exact), are uncanny. Back then, it was called "Columbine all over again." Now it's Columbine AND Virginia Tech again.

This is horrible. We can't even get through two years without another school massacre. It's stupid. Why do people do that? There's no point looking for "reason" or "sense" in any of this. People died on some idiot's whim.

I can't continue. I analyse things. I make sense of them. I understand and evaluate. This is just... Not possible. Not for me.

Events like this... Suck. A lot.
