I will continue discussing last Friday’s Homeless Youth Summit here in Portland in the days ahead, but today there is only one comment that is appropriate. My deepest sympathies and condolences go out to all those affected by the shootings yesterday at Virginia Tech.
This incident once again brings our on-going struggle to understand and prevent school/campus shootings to the front of the news line. Personally, I feel that standing in the shadow of a horrific event is the worst place to consider solutions. I will be offering my perspective on this and other similar events in the near future, but after we all have had a chance to grief, and after all the facts are known.
