Nate and Diana,
Whether we believe that it is pathological or sociological it is a terrible
horrible nauseous reality and great minds such as yours and others on this
list should be open to exploring the complexities, allowing for the many
different ways meaning is constructed especially when trying to understand
such an incomprehensible action. This event is not conducive to debate,
discussion and sharing would be much more valuable. Possibly even productive.

I agree that we need to examine school/society that make such actions
possible but I cannot negate the pathology. Killing others is sick. Maybe
society didn't recognize their illness but are you saying that society caused
their illness? Please help me here. From reading your many comments over the
past months on this list I truly am interested in where you are going with
this. My intention is to learn not to take sides. I agree with Diana that
racism as a part of this tragedy that cannot be passed over lightly but I
also have to tell you that the news and media sources I have available have
not mentioned the racism, they have reported that the victims were "jocks."
I will make a greater attempt to seek out national news.~~Margaret
