Yes, I am loving the fact the friends of the victims and other traumatized students in this instance are fed up with the bullshit "This isn't the time to politicize a tragedy" line they've heard their entire fucking lives and are demanding that we do something.
It's harder for elementary students to do that, and we should have done something BEFORE this for them.
But no, no one is loving that anybody got shot, and if that's what you're implying -- and I admit "this" is a pronoun that might have been ill-defined on your part -- that is 99 shades of fucked up.
People are passionate but I certainly pray to the FSM that no one on DU would ever say or imply that other DUers here are loving tragedies occurring intentionally.
