Here's a list and profiles of some of the people who died yesterday.

Looks more like just Americans to me. All races, all creeds, all colors.

Shame on those of you yesterday who couldn't resist being assholes for a few fucking hours so you could get your usual agenda out. Thankfully, the majority here being enlightened and sensitive folks didn't buy into that garbage that should be reserved for the freep creeps.

4. The saddest thing about that link...

...is that it's not even a full list of all those killed. This is just an unbelievable, mind-numbing tragedy.

Anyone with half a brain should know that no American college campus today is populated by nothing but "white American kids." Or even wealthy white American kids.

11. Who said that?

Sometimes DU embarrasses me. Why would anyone care what color their skin is or their Nationality? They're dead. That's all that matters. *sigh*
