I kinda think its sad that "just getting over it" is considered normal.

  Well, you could go out and protest in a nice ways, but the media will just make jokes and tell people you believe something you don't. "Just getting over it" might be the sane thing to do.

    if you can forget about it and get on with your life -- you (like me) have already got more power/comfort/privilege than most people, who are reminded all the time how much power jerks have to make the lives of those without power miserable.

      Oh, I never said I would forget about it. The government is quite able to make everyones live miserable (check the stupid sale tax law).

    That's true, the media has become extremely effective at making a big joke out of any sort of movement or counter culture that emerges.

      Unless ones views lead them down the path to end up taking the lives of innocent people who have for the most part "just get over it" when it comes to nearly everything in their life, then the media will try to seek every nook and cranny out to try to rationalize the incident in such a manor that there will be those in power who will use it for their own purposes (whatever they may be) ultimately drowning out any deeper discussion on how such a an incident came to be.
