Few hours past, days and weeks, and many people all over the world may already have caught up the latest news that kept every body talking. On television, different public opinion discussions tackled the Virginia Tech massacre. On newspaper, on radio, the track of discussion is about the violent campus killing. And even on video sharing sites, comment boxes would almost retire from kilometric posts and multiple entries from different talking fingers who would like to give their cent's worth of reaction and opinion. Everybody wanted to change the world.

Moreover, people immediately have had different versions of the kind of person Cho was.

And the bleak truth is that, everyone could have stopped this senseless killing.
