On the morning of April 16th, the most disastrous school shooting in American history happened in Virginia Tech University. News delivered that 33 dead and 29 wounded. The affecting scene was that a 70-year-old Israeli professor blocked the loophole with his own body at the crucial moment. His heroic action had gained time for his students to escape from the classroom. As a result, students in this classroom were neither wounded nor dead but the old professor sacrificed his own life.
Report said that the professor and his wife both were survivors in Nazi Massacre Concentration Camp. He was an excellent scientist born in Romania. In his early years, he moved to Israel and in 1980s he moved to America. His family member said that he loved his school very much. As a upright scientist, he cared little about money.

Certainly a great sacrifice for his students...

...would that all of us find such courage should we ever face such a terrible situation.

We have to be glad that it is impossible in China. No guns here. I still don't understand why in the US do not stop selling guns? May it is in the connecion with the business interests?

Because of the Individual Freedom, I think. At least, it is said so.

If someone is crazy (in USA) (in psychiatric sense) he have no right to buy gun. But he can receive a gun as a present from his friends...It is another paradox.
