The above statement is true in just about every instance. In the instance of the Virginia Tech shooting, people fail to recognize that Cho wasn't just an evil maniac who was born that way. People don't want to accept that it was what they did to him, even without knowing it, that caused his mental problems which lead to his demented nature and the shootings. People don't want to hear that by mocking people, they are just as responsible for such things as the people who do them. People don't want to accept that they are just as evil as even the "most evil" people in our world. Inside of every one of us is a Cho or a Hitler, but only by keeping that side knowingly subdued can we actually become good people. This isn't just about Virginia Tech; it really applies to everything. People don't want to hear that government doesn't work, even though so long as human corruption exists, it can't. People don't want to hear that their religion isn't fully true. People just can't accept these things
