Well at the point when shots are going off, you'd be too busy running to pause.

That's why I am smh at everyone that keeps yelling, "Well he had the right to do it!" Just because you have a RIGHT to say something doesn't mean that you won't be held accountable for it later.

Sure, you have the right to say whatever the hell you want. Someone else has the right to not hire you, not let you into their school or not do business with you. Just ask Michael, Don and Isiah.

This kid may wind up going to court and win...sure...but down the line if someone thinks about hiring him and yes, those court records can be sealed since he is a minor, the fact that he was in the news and the news record is an 'unofficial public record' documenting something that happened in your life that you were involved in, can adversely affect you being hired.

That's the type of thing that's happening at VT right now. And while some administrators did report the bastard that shot up my school, it never really penetrated the higher levels. The worst way to learn a lesson? Yes. But you still have to have that line before the policing becomes too much.
