I saw that too, awhile ago they had some sort of Civil war between each other.

But it was amazing, back in 06 (oh wait, what?) the meme was "Has the Vtech kicked in yo"?

Now its the "Virginia Tech" meme.

It's amazing how on the radio they talk about this like it's the weather. They were saying that some of the students haven't been identified and their families haven't been notified. Can you imagine wondering if your son or daughter was shot?

Apparently the basketball coach over there used to teach at my university so today's school paper had a lot of information from him, he and his daughter that goes there were fine. She was living in the dorm next to the one where the first shootings happened.

I think what amazes me most is the the school took two hours to notify students of the first shootings... by email. I know that on a campus that size email is probably the only way to notify so many people, but TWO HOURS? The second shootings had already begun by then! The whole thought of this ordeal is just horrifying to me... I read about how one classroom barricaded the door with a desk just before the shooter got there. He tried to force it open, and when he couldn't he fired three shots into the door and left. What could possess someone to want to kill that badly?

This has been bothering me far more than the attack on the World Trade Center ever did, and I have no idea why - last I heard I don't know anyone down there, but somehow I think that might be what's worrying me, that maybe one of my old friends had been there.

I'd post more, but I'd resort to jokes. Like for example, "I blame Starcraft."

Yeah, I know what you mean. It seems disturbing that someone could do this. At the same time, I feel pissed off that people are trying to blame gun stores for this. I think that if more intelligent, kind-hearted college students were permitted to carry firearms, maybe they could have stopped it from ever being a second shooting.

I dunno. :/

Actually what's worse is that I hear Jack Thompson is blaming video game for this. Now, can you seriously think of a worse time to try and raise video games as the question?

From what I've heard from various sources that guy wasn't even american, he was a transfer student from another country.

Yeah, he was from Korea. But the rest of his family, from initial reports, is a pretty good bunch. His sister graduated from Princeton with no complaints from anyone. Maybe it was something that happened to him during high school or something.

Jack Thompson is a dick for thinking video games were the cause. He needs to go jump off a cliff or something.

while a girlfriend is a stupid reason to kill others. i cant help but wonder is it such a bad thing that he shoot them. or any of the school shootings. while i never will do such a thing (no one could get me angry enough) i completely understand why someone would participate in a school shooting ive had plans and senarios and dreams of just walking through the crowed of people in the court yard of my school with a katana and just killing them all. but i never will im smarter than that the only way out of the consequences is death and i cant kill myself because i am a cowerd. as for 4 chan its always fucked up always.

It's not right to kill all those people! It is a bad thing! Over 30 people who could have changed the world have had their lives robbed by this one particular antisocial guy because he didn't like rich kids! I can't condone murder, ever.

If someone has a problem, I can even understand getting in a fight to resolve things, but never end someone's life. Humans should not have that power.

Where do you think my "I blame Starcraft" came from, Vulkar?

Thats sick. How can you make something so brutal and horrible into an advertisement to win a PS3 that you aren't going to win anyways. I'm surprised at that really.

4chan is the scum center of the earth. The proof there is no god. XD

Anyway, it's absoludacris that this happened, this is worse than columbine, and it was done by ONE person. It's crazy, insane, and shouldn't have happened. I disapprove of the guy who did this, he gets three thumbs down in my book.

My real question is...why should he have been able to do it?

Surely after he started shooting, somone would have thought, let's do a massive charge while holding up tables so that they can't get shot.

Although, I suppose we shouldn't judge, hving been in a different position.
