Speechless - 22 killed at Virginia Tech

No disagreement there. It's a historic photo. I wonder if there will be any award winning photos of today's massacre sent to news agencies? Surely there must be one student with a camera in his backpack who had the "brass" to take photos of the carnage instead of helping the vicitims and/or running for his life while the massacre was taking place.

*edit*
oops. I forgot to include tags.
I was letting it go, but since you keep pressing it...

What evidence (aka, non-assumptions) do you have that:
- person must've just gotten shot 5 seconds before the photo was taken
- He didn't run over to see what happened
- He didn't run to get help
- He didn't yell for everyone to take cover

As far as we can tell from the photo, the alternative might be:
- person was shot 10 minutes earlier
- the photog already went over and tried to help
- the photog left to call help
- the photog kept reminding people to look out
- the woman showed up and he then took the picture
Are you taking this personally? And if yes. Why?
