Mourning the loss at Virginia Tech University
The first thing you should do today is take a moment, put down your blackberry, turn off your cellular phone, and remember the innocent lives lost in the senseless tragedy that occurred on Monday at Virginia Tech University. When I last checked, there are 33 confirmed deaths included the killer. It wasn’t too long ago since the Montreal shooting rampage on September 13th, 2006. I don’t understand why these events keep happening…
Garry Conn has uncovered a disturbing new trend — domain squatters have started registering the names of the killer as well as the victims of Virginia Tech and are trying to make money off of them! Just disgusting.
Excerpt from Garry Conn’s post on the domain registering.
After the Virginia Tech Massacre caused by Cho Seung-Hui, the gunman who apparently killed 32 people and then himself on the morning of Monday, April 16th, 2007 at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Blacksburg, Va., there has been a domain name craze going on. This is very typical of any major event that takes place and makes nationwide and worldwide news.
