while I don't think what they are doing is really that wrong, I wouldn't do it. I think registering names of individual people killed is especially in bad taste...

I think its an ethical issue....and not really a business one....
Do you think the manufacturer or seller of the gun is losing sleep....
If all business decisions went along the ethical lines where would we be today?

There is a line. I guess that line is in different places for different people.

Personally, for me, this crosses the line.

This has been discussed in the other forums.

What about blogs, newspapers, news sites with ads, pay per click ads on their pages, and they talk about VA Tech massacre?

I'm gonna have to agree with you there but two wrongs don't make a right. It's a stupid argument to do something you know is messed up with the excuse that "everyone else is doing it".
