Pointing fingers @ Talk Radio

Dick Durbin, Barack Obama Tie Violence to Talk Radio:
"How could a guy like this get a gun? Well, now we know how: Nobody fingered the guy as a potential danger to the community! That's why."

The people on campus had the best view of Cho, but they didn't think he was dangerous enough to take further measures like getting him committed, or going (themselves) to another school after their one attempt in Dec 2005. He hid his feelings well enough to avoid further attention from the authorities.
"the problem with what happened at Virginia Tech is this is not about America! This is not about common Americans or Americans in general. This is about a lone nutcase who slaughtered other people -- and any politician who would dare, as Obama has done, to go out and paint his fellow countrymen with such a stupid view doesn't deserve to lead us."

Politicians need to get air-time to succeed. Commenting on current events is one way to get it. Sometimes they reveal more than they intended about themselves . . .
