Must...contain...rage...

Apparently, the latest "official story" about the VA Tech shootings is that the gunman was "made" to do it by a young woman who broke up with him/cheated on him/wouldn't give him enough attention/whatever.

At least, that's how they're spinning it.

Do I need to say what an absolute travesty it is that they are even implying that this young woman was somehow responsible for, or provoked, or "sparked", this massacre? Even the barest implication of it is monstrous.

(Never mind that she did not, after all, have any prior relationship with the shooter.)

That doesn't excuse publishing her face.

Wait...I'm sorry, I misunderstood what you were saying.

That's sed code for "substitute", isn't it?
