I woke up this morning and saw Dallas’ post in the chatbox at Laovoices.com about the shooting at Northern Illinois in De Kalb. According to the news report, 6 people have died in the shooting (5 students and including the gunman). I have been to NIU in the spring of 2005 for the First International Conference on Lao Studies. It’s a small and quiet town and a place that I couldn’t imagine an incident like this could take place there. The timing of the event on Valentine’s Day has given us a hint on the state of mind of the gunman. What kind of a world are we living in? You are not even safe in your own classroom. My heart goes out to the friends and families of the deceased students.

BBC News coverage of the shooting.
