    We Are Virginia Tech

    without a doubt the best speech I've ever witnessed

    "We are Virginia Tech. We are sad today and we will be sad for quite a while. We are NOT moving on. We are embracing our mourning. We are Virginia Tech! We are strong enough to stand tall tearlessly. We are brave enough to then to cry. And sad enough to know we must laugh again. We are Virginia Tech! We do not understand this tragedy. We know we did nothing to deserve it. But neither does a child in Africa dying of AIDS. Neither do the invisible children walking the night away to avoid being captured by a rogue army. Neither does the baby elephant watching his community be devastated for ivory. Neither does the Mexican child looking for fresh water. Neither does the Appalachian infant killed in the middle of the night in his crib in the home his father built with his own hands, being run over by a boulder because the land was destabilized. No one deserves a tragedy. We are Virginia Tech! The Hokie Nation embraces our own and reaches out with open heart and hands to those who offer their hearts and minds. We are strong and brave and innocent and unafraid. We are better than we think and not quite what we want to be. We are alive to the imagination and the possibility we will continue to invent the future. Through our blood and tears through all this sadness WE ARE the HOKIES! We will prevail! We WILL prevail! We will PREVAIL! WE ARE...Virginia Tech..."
    "An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity."

    That woman is about 10 bricks shy of a load.

    So this woman is equating the life of these Tech students with the life of an elephant?

    I don't recall all the details exactly but I do believe she just takes the details of the baby that was killed and changes all the details to suit her agenda and to make it sound as bad as she possibly can.
    Not that it wasn't a terrible incident but to just make up things and change things because the actual facts don't make as good a story or case for your argument is just wrong. I am reffering to her agenda as being one of the people against mining especially strip mining.

    I would bet she's a leftist, liberal, feminist prof at VT!

    Geez, you guys.
    Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, it is war minus the shooting.

    Exactly what I was thinking, and if I remember correctly it happened either in the morning or evening not at night.
