The 32 number I heard on another radio show which was monitoring the ABC feed.

Re: At Least 20 Dead in Va. Tech Shooting

I have been in a meeting all morning and just got news of this - It's horrific. My hearts go out to all the parents sitting at home wondering if their child is okay - the thought of losing a child and the consequent pain is almost unimaginable to me, and that which I can imagine seems unbearable.

My prayers are with all those affected by this horrible act.

it was cold as hell this morning, snowing a little, and extremely windy. he could have easily concealed his wepons because everyone was wearing heavy coats.

Your right Joe, My prayers are for the families, and the slain. It does not seem possible that this can happen..........

Re: At Least 20 Dead in Va. Tech Shooting

There is no reasonable way to explain/prevent this from happening socially.


School's nationwide will crackdown, and metal detectors entering dorms and classrooms will and should be instituted. This is not a policy flaw, to suggest that is just wrong.

No-one will be able to get answers for this. There is no valid reason for this to happen. There are crazy people in this world, and this highlights that.

Re: At Least 20 Dead in Va. Tech Shooting

Making people more accountable for who they allow into a restricted dormitory would a good start.

As tragic as this story is, you got to realize that the last time something like this happened on such a comparable scale was 40 years ago. That's a lot of students at a lot of colleges and universities that have lived in relative safety during their time in school.

The government can't "fix" this. I do think the parents of shooters should be held liable for their children's actions. Who f*cking raises monsters like these? People sends their kids to school to learn not have your f'ed up kid kill them.

If the f*cked up kid is paranoid and psychotic then his parents have nothing to do with it!! It's an illness that should have been diagnosed and treated, but the laws are too lax and they let the sick take care of themselves! As the medical people say "You can be as crazy as you want as long as you don't hurt anyone". Well, by then it's too late!!!

Re: At Least 20 Dead in Va. Tech Shooting

cancel class after the first murder, not wait around like a dumb university. as far as im concerned the university bear some responsability. if they cancel class, many more people are probably still alive.

From what I have heard from some initial reports is that the shootings were un-related, and the first guy is in custody.

There's a lot of mis-information out there... So it's really impossible to judge what when on right now.

Re: At Least 20 Dead in Va. Tech Shooting

There will be plenty of time to figure out what went wrong, and what could have happened.

Right now offering sympathies/condolences is probably the appropriate response. I already learned that... and I'm done talking about it for the day.
