5. Kudos to Jon Stewart ... he brought this up, too.
He asked his Iraqi guest how they can possibly cope with DAILY killings of the same scale or larger as the VA Tech shootings.
This is NOT a way of tivializing ANYTHING - but a way of coming to grips wiht the scale and scope of the unimaginable horror we're complicit in CREATING in this world. If we can't put our own experiences in the context of the world, we lose our very humanity!
