When you are metally ill you can't be responsible. That's the problem!

So how should the government fix this?

Wow, I can't believe this. I'm glad you're ok C, and I pray for all your other classmates. Thoughts and Prayers are with all there at Tech.

They were reporting on WSLS Channel 10 news out of Roanoke, Virginia that one of the 22 that was killed was the shooter himself. If you go on CNN.com, you can actually watch the cell phone video of the cops firing their guns at what we assume is the shooter.

Glad to see that you're ok Big C. This is effing crazy. I used to go down to Blacksburg all the time (most of my friends graduated in 2000).......and besides VA Tech, theres nothing else in that town. That place will never be the same after this.

My thoughts and prayers go out to all VA tech students who were injured and/or killed.

Oh my word. They are still just reporting at least 22 on local news here. How can one man take out that many people? And...is that not counting the ones who are just injured at the hospital?

I haven't seen more that 22. Where are you hearing 32? My God. How can only one person get this much fire off? Where were the police? How did this guiy move to a second location without being seen and reported to law enforcement?

I'm guessing he didn't walk across campus with a gun in his hand. It's pretty cold up there so he could have tucked it into his shirt or jacket and kept his head down. Not too many alert college kids, or people in general, walking around campus at 7:30 in the morning.
