although i tl;dr'd spuki's rant, the general feeling of frustration is pretty high in me. i'm the resident yank in my school (for spending 5 years in northern VA... yeah), and let's just say i've been going off on pretty heavy walls of rage (wall o'texts irl) to anyone discussing this subject. i was in fairfax county from '98 to '03. meanwhile, there was columbine, 9/11 that hit pretty hard, the fucking beltway sniper (who gave my sister major neuroses due to vulture-reporters), then years later a few friends were at VTech, a bazillion and a half school shootings later, and one boston massacre later and still people keep on getting killed due to monsters. when will we learn?! i'm tired of waking up and seeing horrors committed across the world. hell, even in france who is pretty reasonable there was a
fucking killer in my town last year! when will it all end?!
i'm not trying to pass for a victim, here. i know i was at the wrong place at the wrong time, and that shit happens. my heart goes out to anyone near the boston area: i know that terror too well, and i wouldn't wish it on anyone but the biggest douche-canoes.
all i'm saying is: why the fuck won't people learn? it's really depressing.
