Shqipo's Virtual Mumblings

Shqipo's personal blog, about anything and nothing.

Va Tech

Thursday, April 19, 2007
I'm assuming just about anyone who writes a blog (Americans) has already written up something about the horrible tragedy at Virginia Tech.

It's not my intention to repeat over and over again what pretty much everyone has already said. The reason for my blog entry today is the call by some people to fire VA Tech's President and chief of police. There are quite a few students who defend these two men.

I am not sure how things went in Blacksburg that fateful morning, but, from what I've read on the news, it looks to me like they really dropped the ball. You have two people shot at a dormitory and what do you do? You simply consider it a "domestic dispute" and simply send a campus-wide email? How about blocking off the whole campus trying to find out who did it? Or were they trying to put in practice their CSI skillz and find the killer through stupid analysis 6 months later?
