Mr. Romney...

52. Quite a post

You should convert this to a LTTE or even an op-ed piece and send it everywhere you can think of. It's easy (well, not really, but you get the idea) to dismiss any one of these deaths as sad, unfortunate, maybe even a tragedy, but assembled here in one place, and undoubtedly incomplete at that, it really does force any sane human being to sit up and take notice. Good work.

Also, I was struck by a comment over at the NYT that observed that Romney faced no consequences for his attack while the victim, a little later in his school career, was booted from the Academy for smoking a cigarette. It's sad (or maybe not) that Mr. Lauber is receiving this sort of recognition posthumously. It will be interesting to learn more about him in the coming days.
