While the world is mourning the terrible tragedy at Virginia Tech, there are reckless xenophobic bigots in the blogosphere who automatically pinned it on a Muslim before knowing any of the facts of the case. Upon learning the facts, she called for a reduction in foreign student visas. Ridiculous. It’s folks like Ms. Schlussel who make the blogosphere look incredibly amateurish, extremist, and immature. People like her absolutely poison the public discourse of the country, and she and her followers should be absolutely ashamed of themselves. Maybe Tim O’Reilly was on to something…
