Guest, while I agree that the rest of the world should back off and respect the need for privacy for the people of Red Lake, I would questions your characterization of the Columbine students 'harrass'ing the kids in hospital. I would suggest instead that, meddelsome as it may seem, they are there to offer sympathy and support, as they are a few of the people around who can honestly say, at least to a certain extent, "I know what you're going thru". The masses of media, on the other hand, have on idea what these people have been thru, and frankly, I'm rather insulted (as part of the 'public') that they think the 'public's need to know' is more important than respecting the needs of the victims, their families and their community.
