That wasn’t crass — this is

Published 4/17/07

Meet Joe Parker. He’s registered vtmurders.com and vtmurders.info, which, according to his Web site, he’s selling for $250,000.

He also grabbed vtkillings.com — same price. And choseung-hui.com? He’ll take a cool $1 million for that, thanks.

I believe that would be “asking” not “selling”. I bet he’ll take a lot less in a few weeks. The Internet provides us with a whole new sub-species of parasite to ridicule.

Hmm… I wonder why that happened.

Actually, “what’s crass” is writing a story in USA Today including this sentence: “After a few days of reading ‘I’m choosing a shirt to wear’ or ‘I think I like vanilla,’ I’d be ready to find a rifle and a clock tower.” I realize that the story predated this week’s multiple murders, so you just “got lucky” when you referred to the last American college campus mass shooting. But I ask you, when is murder ever funny?
