I gave some thought to this since the news coverage began. I also considered that if the six girls in Colorado had rushed the guy it would have been the best thing. Pick up a chair, go for the privates, figure to go down fighting, whatever. I speak from some experience, and know that big guys have sometimes backed down and run. (Not to mention what the boys might have done before being told to leave).
Here in the US
we've seldom had to face it,
but maybe it's time
for parents and kids
to discuss difficult things,
like sometimes you must
choose between dying
while fighting for your life, or
dying following
some psycho's orders.
But it seems impossible
to expect children
to have to choose things
like this. I'm just at a loss.
The thing last week, now
this even worse thing.
I've never felt this sickened
by the daily news.

I know I wasn't there and it's easy to be an armchair critic, but I think it's really time for people to teach their sons that when the nut with a gun asks all the boys to leave the room, it's time to pick up anything you can and start throwing it at the bastard because what comes next is never good.
