Massacre

Many will recall that in the first 5 minutes of the first Twin Towers report I said they were trying to make a special statement by coordinating (somewhat ineffectively) strikes at 9:11 of 9/11 to take advantage of our universal emergency code. Cllever bastards. Yet despite our grandparents connection to the St. Valentine's Day Massacre + being keenly ware of the day last night, it never occured to me that the latest mass-murderer at local NIU was guaranteeing that he would be remembered annually. Who'd have thought that schools would become riskier places to be than courthouses?!
