Unsung hero of Virginia Tech massacre: 77 year old Mr. Librescu
- NEGLIGENCE EQUALS DEATH--MORE DAMNING EVIDENCE AGAINST VA. TECH:
- NOW NBC ANNOUNCES RECEIPT OF PACKAGE FROM KILLER IN THE 2 HOUR WINDOW IN WHICH THE VA. TECH ADMINISTRATION AND/OR POLICE HID IN FEAR AT THE COST OF 32 DEATHS, OTHERS MAIMED.
- THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS IN A PASSIVE SOCIETY, SO CONGRATULATIONS TO THOSE WHO WANTED THAT--YOU GOT IT.
- "Nonetheless, it’s deeply damaging to portray fit fully formed adults as children who need to be protected. We should be raising them to understand that there will be moments in life when you need to protect yourself — and, in a “horrible” world, there may come moments when you have to choose between protecting yourself or others. It is a poor reflection on us that, in those first critical seconds where one has to make a decision, only an elderly Holocaust survivor,***Professor Librescu,*** understood instinctively the obligation to act.
When we say “we don’t know what we’d do under the same circumstances”, we make cowardice the default position.
I’d prefer to say that the default position is a terrible enervating passivity. Murderous misfit loners are mercifully rare. But this awful corrosive passivity is far more pervasive, and, unlike the psycho killer, is an existential threat to a functioning society." — Mark Steyn, a National Review columnist, is author of America Alone.""Article by Mark Steyn, 'A CULTURE OF PASSIVITY." 4/18/07. INSTEAD OF OUTRAGE YOU HAVE WEEPING AND MOURNING. IT WAS ALL PREVENTABLE, BUT LET'S NOT TELL ANYONE.
8:10PM--The tapes have been heard, NBC will now tell us what to think. I've seen no evidence I should believe a word NBC's Steve Capus says, so I prepare for him to blow smoke. (Steve's been in the news quite a bit in the past week). But this really takes the cake. The 8PM NBC radio news reports in shrill & alarming tone: the killer "compared himself to Jesus Christ." Thank heaven, they've solved the whole thing for us, gee, I'm so relieved. So Christianity is the main problem, now we know what to fix.
