Surprise! VT shooter was bullied, and the GOP is wrong.

Seems our VT shooter was another kid who was bullied in high school - as most of the other "school shooters" have been. Yet another sign that teachers must take as much of a stand against student-on-student bullying as possible. As someone who himself was bullied through much of his pre-college educational life, I can say that, while I do not (and would never) condone actions such as his, I understand where these people come from. It is a horrid, hellish place that NO child should have to endure.

His plays should have sent off massive amounts of triggers that this was a young man who needed help. It seems that as little help as possible was given to him, other than shoving a bottle of psychoactive pharmaceuticals in his hand and saying, "Hey, good luck, pal."

VT students were somewhat pro-active against Cho. While they weren't likely to go running towards a man with guns who was clearly willing to open fire, they did put up some resistance.

Dinesh D'Souza (or, as Jared is wont to call him, D'Moron) thinks liberals are hypocritical when they complain about Bush's gutting of the Constitution while "opposing" the Second Amendment (as the GOP interprets it, anyway). Cenk Uygur of the Young Turks counters that argument by offering to give the GOP its interpretation of the Second Amendment if it restores the remainder of the Constitution.

D'Souza doesn't get it. As I mentioned previously, the Second Amendment is provisional, NOT inalienable. The government has the right (and, apparently, the need) to determine limits on gun ownership.
