Why was it a 77-year-old, and not a 20-year-old?
My father asked, when 14 women were murdered by Marc Lepine at Ecole Polytechnique on December 6, 1989, why so many girls could be shot while the “men” stood by and did nothing.
Yesterday a 77-year-old engineering professor, Liviu Librescu, a Holocaust survivor, blocked a doorway to protect his students. He was shot to death. His manly and able-bodied engineering students hid behind desks and jumped out the window.
Professor Librescu, this is why you survived the Holocaust. This was your purpose, and you fulfilled it admirably. Thank you, and rest in peace.
They don’t make men like you anymore.
