This is what I'm not getting: the gunman killed two people at 7:15am and then TWO HOURS LATER killed THIRTY people. WTF happened in those two hours? What were the cops doing? Blacksburg is a small, relatively quiet town. There's not much ground to cover.
"How could we forget those ancient myths that stand at the beginning of all races, the myths about dragons that at the last moment are transformed into princesses? Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love."
-- Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet
