Oh my Lord... that obituary wasn't just snarky and circuitously mean, they were fucking outright, in-your-face BRUTAL. "Oh, and did we mention he attempted suicide and FAILED??!?" Fucking Fox News.
Oh, and the whole Virginia Tech thing is really nuts down here. I talked to a few friends of mine who went to VA Tech (one of whom only went there a year until she transferred), and it's really got them confused and off-balance. Of course, now the nation can start being afraid of immigrants of all shapes and sizes (because, obviously, they are ALL terrorists) instead of, you know, doing the obvious thing and beefing up Virginia's gun laws.
