Hey guys, back from Miami and of course we saw plenty of this on the news this week.
The one thing I'm tired of is all the second guessing, all the "what if you had..." by the media. I realize it's what the media do - try and install blame somewhere as quickly as possible, but I can see how it's very reasonable that when the first shooting happened they didn't think there would be anything else happening.
So the media blames the school for not e-mailing 14,000+ students to tell them (when they're all on the way to school for the most part) what happened and that classes are closed.
It is a horrible, horrible tragedy. I am not trying to dumb it down by any means at all, but why can't people ever just say "sometimes very bad things happen and we don't have answers for it." Second guessing for the purpose of blame doesn't solve much, but second guessing as a means to prevent these types of things in the future does.
The media just want to hang someone for every terrible thing that happens no matter how small the event they can stick their claws into. Watching Nancy Grace list night was like being hit in the face with a lead pipe.
