I'm beginning to wonder if all the people preaching this 'Aaron died for your benefit so now you must suffer' line are Catholics.
Taken to the extreme, this line of reasoning is what makes certain terrorist groups think killing random civilians is acceptable. After all, if you're a citizen of a country then you should be held personally accountable for all the perceived crimes perpetrated by your government, right?
Lumping everything connected to 'MIT' together as the same evil thing is shortsighted and counterproductive.
