Why?

Filed under: Current Affairs

Opened up the post editor to post sumthing about the IEEE-ACM seminar that we had at our college today but a news item related to the shootings in Virginia Tech university caught m eye…so decided to post on it first.

This piece of news "Va. Tech shooter was laughed at" has made me think that y do we make fun of each other…we all know that noone is perfect and we have all got certain weaknesses..even then y do we hurt people by picking on their weak points and invite tragedies like this one!

  1. I read a few like-wise articles on the psychological state of the shooter and now this very news piece added to the fury and whirling thoughts of mine … we are cultivating or rather encouraging a class of same youth amongst us too … some are coming ut some are holding up still … it’s awful :|

  2. Many things were involved fariha…
    Whatever that shooter did was wrong, there are thousands of other ways to reach out and make others stop harassing you. Do u think by his shooting, bullies will stop bullying weaker ppl? Hell no!!
    Strong will keep ruling over weaker, you need to be stronger to stop rather killing innocen live on the name of ‘harrasement’..

  3. it has more connection to rising gun violence in american schools and colleges instead of his mental health, media always portray things according to their own need, if you see in past few years their are kids involved in these kind of unlawful acts in schools and outside.
    In my opinion media, violence in games are more responsible, other wise he was not the first with broken heart.
