    Sometimes a good squeeze can be a Zen-like experience, provided the atmosphere is right.

    My husband has his masters in Social work and he is a counselor for a community resource center. He has to counsel the sex offenders in group and non group settings and he comes home so frustrated sometimes. Like just the other night he got this new guy who is in his seventies and he uses a walker to walk... anyway he was caught teaching his 10 year old granddaughter about sex by showing her, and he feels he did nothing wrong because she came to him and asked him about sex. :evil: This is the first time he was ever caught but obviously at seventy chances are this isn't his first time offending. I Don't know what the solution is. Love your kids, teach your kids what to watch for, and let them know they can tell you anything.

    Beyond that, I don't think keeping our kids in a prison is the answer. But Ruffems I am absolutely with you The cops better get their before i do or there will be nothing left to arrest, except for me.

    Got you to notice the newspaper and watch CNN, respectively, didn't it? Why do they resort to such tactics? Because it works, and it gets people to read the paper and watch TV. Now stop complaining, watch the news, and pay attention to the commericals when the TV tells you to.

    I turned into the news on the radio when it first broke. I wanted to hear if it was an isolated incident or not and how many people were killed. After that, I haven't read any news articles or watched the news at all on it. What more do I need to know? Until the American public stops confusing entertainment with information, it will be round the clock bloodbath coverage with big flashing graphics and talking head 'experts'. You only have yourself to blame.

    By the way... I hear they found new Jon Benet Ramsey evidence.... Or maybe it was something about Scott Peterson...no, wait it was definitely something about the girl who disappeared in the Bahamas. Definitely. Or maybe it was OJ. I'm not sure now. Whatever it was it was an exclusive, shocking, provocative, piece of expert journalism.

    I think maybe i should edit my comment i didn't find out about this terrible thing until around early afternoon that day. I happened to turn on the TV ( idiot box) and it was plastered on almost every channel i turned to sooooo. I watched in horror long enough to find out the gist of the situation and then moved on but like i said before the whole time i did watch (maybe 15 minutes tops) it was plastered as stated above. I am not complaining i was just agreeing with StickEm's view of how it was handled/portrayed in the media. That is why i hate to watch CNN or FOX or any big news outlet. And much like you Asys I have not watched anymore news on it either. So i'm not sure if you were directing that at me but if you were back away from the kool aid i wasn't blaming anyone for anything just making an observation along with someone elses comment. :? Also i realize you don't know me from adam but i have been in this business for a long enough time not to be caught up in the oh-my god-squad mentality. And I certainly hope that no one in their right mind would confuse all those people being killed and injured as entertainment.

    Well except for maybe the news outlets... :? :x

    Yes, a sore day for VT.

    My prayers and thoughts go out to all involved.

    I, too forgive the shooter, he was obviously very disturbed, (understatement,).

    The only interview I saw was with a volunteer first-responder, and she did well when asked about training for this type of scenario, though she referred to it as a "Multiple Casualty Injury".

    Other than that, she did fine.

    One thing that has made the bile churn for me has been the way the news media can hardly contain it's joy at such a good news day. If they think by blandly stating in robotic monotone that "this is such a tragic incident." somehow covers up their secret glee, they are indeed mistaken.

    They are maggots who don't even wait for the corpses to rot a little before feasting copiously on them. THIS is the worst dishonor to the victims, IMO.

    The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's headline read in HUGE letters, "BLOODBATH" across the front page. How crass.

    I'd like to choke the Ca Ca out of the editor.

    I would encurage all who read this to send the editor an e-mail here: jdwallace@ajc.com if so moved.

    -Deplorable.

    This type of low-brow journalism is unbefitting a major (albeit a liberal-rag,) paper in Atlanta. What's sadder still is this is the only paper we have here.

    Sorry I am off-topic a little...

    Yes I was watching I think it was CNN (pretty sure but not positive) but anyway the whole day it was plastered across the screen -Massacre at Virginia Tech- In big bold red lettering. I thought it was very shocking also. But hey thats what they are going for the shock value and ratings. :x
