I don't know what kind of peers those are, but I need to say that not ONE of MY peers (by that i mean Americans of my generation) found anything "hilarious" or "a cause for celebration". Every single person around me (of all generations) have been shocked and saddened and angered by this. I just don't want everyone to think that the assholes Mark observed are in any way representative of American youth. In fact, they're not even representative of human beings. ~brier P.S. Pleased that the show will go on in Portland.... beautiful music is what our hearts need right now.
took the train home from school this morning...a great deal of my peers (by that i mean americans of my generation) apparently found what happened to be hilarious...a cause for celebration, even. everyone else seemed momentarily annoyed with the interruption of their daily routine.
i can't say the occurrence or reaction startled me in the least...i offer best wishes to the families and friends of the deceased...and no one else. we'll all be back to our routine, tomorrow.
tragic, isn't it?
