If the Va. Tech psycho did this in part because he was bullied, then those who bullied him are partly responsible. They should be expelled from society (civilization), at the very least. These are the feelings that motivated an earlier exchange on this topic: my post Toward a Theory of Bullying; More on Bullying; and Re: Bullying; and Stephen Carson’s Bullying and Lawlessness; Karen De Coster’s great post Aggression is Aggression is Aggression is Aggression; and Tom DiLorenzo’s post The VMI-Approved Way of Dealing with Bullies.
And this reminds me of why I send my son to a Montessori school: their focus on peace and conflict-avoidance: Out of the Mouths of Babes.
