  • Virginia Tech shootings!

    http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/04/16/vte...ing/index.html

    Possible the worst school shooting in history the news guy said just now.
    Maybe more than 29 dead.

    BLACKSBURG, Va. - A gunman opened fire in a dorm and classroom at Virginia Tech on Monday, killing 21 people in the deadliest campus shooting in U.S. history. The gunman was killed but it was unclear if he was shot by police or took his own life.

        They've just upped the number to 32.

        I'm concerned because my sorority has a chapter there. I was just there at VT early last year.

        I've attempted to send a text and AIM message to one of my collegiate sisters there, but so far, no reply.

          Some of my internet Virginia friends say their news said...the shooter was looking for his Gf. And the news cast guy said myabe 32 now. Very scary.
          Brings back all the memories of Kip Kinkel. And the other school shootings.

              This is by far one of THE craziest things that has happened in VA in ages, if not ever. A lot of people here are in shock and it is surreal to see something effecting people first hand. Very sad, and tragic.

              Positive thoughts and prayers to the effected families.

                  I was channel surfing between CNN, MSNBC and Faux this morning to gauge coverage of the tragedy.

                  Both CNN and MSNBC and their sources described the circumstances fairly equally, but only Faux said "talk is that the shooter was looking for his girlfriend". Wonder where they got that?

                  Even more tragically, this particular campus has been fraught with security incidents: over the past month, there were also two reports of bombs on campus. Authorities don't know if those threats were tied to today's shootings or not.

                    There is a great deal of speculation going on at the website fark.com . Several users of the website are claiming to be VT students.

                    My prayers are with everyone at VT.

                        Really sad.

                        <side thought>
                        I wonder if this will be attributed to video games too.
                        Do they ever note an extensive collection of horror movies, porn, or anything else other then videogames?

                          I am already annoyed by people using this as political leverage.
                          It's not about politics, it's about lives torn apart by senseless violence and the families.
                          People take advantage of any situation to shove their view down your throat.

                          I think I will just shut off my news today.

                              Just got word that all my sisters at VT are accounted for. What a relief.

                              Still, this doesn't take away from the sadness I feel for all the lives lost and all those hurt.
