I'm sorry, but why exactly is a bunch of rich sorority girls who are too stupid to put out a firepit on a WOODEN deck before going to sleep national news?

My bad ... I didn't read the part where there was frat boys there too. The joke writers are going to have a field day with this one.
My point is we have a president in the white house that is reponsible for that many deaths in a single day ... each major city in America has that many homicides in a single night ... we have kids dieing from abusive parents ... let's get some perspective here, please.

elevated10 -- I’m mormon, have nine wives. They all drive me homicidal and are the source of my angst. OK, I’m lying … I only have eight wives.
♥ -- Golly, where do I start? First, I wouldn’t brag too much about going to USC. I live in OC so I would know. Just because mummy and daddy buys you a diploma from that dump of a school doesn’t necessarily mean that you have an edumucation. (Plus STANFORD kicked your *** in football this year, how sad is that?!!!) Honestely, I would trade the lives of 10 of you beach house snots any day if it brings back one nameless soldier from mid-America who died a sensless death in Iraq for you rich snots. Finally, Britney sucks … everybody knows that. Posh Spice is WAY cooler to follow. You really need to wake up. Stay away from current event questions and go answer questions about what color fingernail polish to wear for the next formal.

Yet another day that tops Yahoo’s US news list. That makes Sunday night (I worked Sunday night and came home to this BS), all Monday, and now Tuesday morning (thank gawd, Mr. DA from New Orleans abusing your political position to make … a political statement, I guess.).
All this time, this story never topped or came close to topping Yahoo’s top 10 on their Most Popular nor Most Viewed lists of news items that readers actually opened and read ... this may be why Yahoo is getting it's butt kicked by Google ... Goog presents it info based on most viewed stats. Time to sell my Yahoo stock and make Google News my homepage.
We spend a whole week here in southern California proving that wood + fire = bad things. So then why does a house full of college educated nitwits manage to kill more than twice as many people in one-tenth the time in one-billionth of the acreage? I suppose the Darwin Awards does accept candidates year-round. (Is Yahoo's staff tell who their choice is?)

You are correct. As a U of South Carolina grad my heart bleeds. I've also been to Ocean Isle many times. Life doesn't get any better than spending a crisp fall evening there with friends. You talk so much, drink and feel so good you think the evening will never end. When the adrenaline rush is over you crash. Nobody knows if there's lit cigarettes around or something is still cooking on the grill. It was a night that would never end. RIP

Any time you have more than a couple people die in one event, it usually makes the news. And I think most people find dying in a fire particularly gruesome. And on top of that being kids...rich or not.
Edit: You really are a waste of good air, you know that. Do you really think our brave soldiers feel the way you do? Don't presume to understand them, because I can tell by your writings that you don't have a clue.

Rich or not they are still someones kids, friends, sisters and brothers, who made a bad decision and are now dead. Their families and friends will never see them again. It's a huge loss.
The only good thing to come out of it is that other drunk college students need to pay attention to what can happen, and what did happen!!

Excuse me? or rather...excuse you!! 7 young, college students just lost their lives, and as a student at USC and a friend to one of those girls that passed...how dare you say that! You must be one of those people that rather hear about Britney and all her damn issues 24/7! May God be with these families during this terrible time!
EDIT: (response to your ignorance) FYI dumbass!!!! we're not talking about southern california, we're talking about SOUTH CAROLINA!!! so everything you just said, doesnt really apply to me jackass!! and ps. i got a fullride there, mommy & daddy didnt pay for ****!

Because they were college students and a lot of parents from the "baby boom" generation have children in college. It's called targetting the key demographic. It's not news. It's advertisment-driven news!

Oh Daniel.... you need to go get a girlfriend or something.... holy crap. Seven college students lost their lives in a fire. I think thats basis enough to make the news.
Why are you so bitter about it? Whats the point? Attention?
Again... go get a girlfriend......
If you can.
