In Remembrance Of The Victims At Virginia Tech

mourning
One year ago today, a Virginia Tech student shot 32 of his peers and teachers in an act of violence unprecedented in its scale. It was the most horrific and deadly shooting on a college campus in our nation’s history, and the students there are still healing.

I think that like the events of September 11th and the Princess Diana’s death (and Bambi’s mom’s!) we will always remember where we were when we heard the news. I was in Tasmania, glued to CNN and other American television stations, extremely glad that I was in a foreign country. Even there, in an island off the coast of the most isolated continent in the world, the papers were filled with the news for days afterwards. I hope that never happens again.

We are with you, Virginia Tech.
