It'll be interesting to see how this story develops, if they ID the guy responsible for it.
Anyone else looking at the bomb/drug dogs sniffing around campus? I wonder if they found weed, what would they do?
"It's okay, we're just looking for bombs... Smoke it before the next set of dogs comes through here" Imagine what a huge break that'd be...
ROFL! completely inappropriate but very funny none the less.Quote:

don't get me wrong, i don't see any reason for assault weapons, and guns that have no other purpose than killing people to be legal; and i'd like the corrupt manufacturers who cater to criminals to be put behind bars
but in this case it doesn't seem that assault weapons were even used.
you could easily make the point that if another student had a gun then they could have taken the perp out and ended it; the length of time this went on, and the helplessness of the students, faculty, even police is what is staggering me
personally, i'd like all guns to be illegal and gone from the earth. i'd gladly hunt with a bow and arrow. i'd also remove atom bombs, chemical weapons, hell, everything that is made for killing people. the problem is that we can't do it.
so what do you do? if you outlaw guns those restrictions tend to come upon the people who would use them for protection, who acquire them LEGALLY. criminals and psychopaths can easily find them on the black market, anywhere in the world.
i think that the reason we have these killings in America has a lot more to do with our culture than our gun laws. i really can't spell it out, i can't put my finger on it, but there is a something severe and inhuman in our culture. in opposition to somewhere like canada, that is just more at ease. there is no ease in america. it is a land of dissatisfaction and a constant demand to succeed, succeed, succeed. all that being said, i don't claim to have my finger on the pulse. i don't know if i can really explain it, and i don't think we yet know why this person did what he did. if anything, i'd say that we, as a people, have lost a lot of our vision of the beauty and sanctity of human life. we've traded it for sex (and an oppressive demand to be attractive), money, popularity, and power
i think gun laws are important and necessary, but i doubt that that is the issue here
all my words are cheap, because there's nothing i can say to encapsulate the lives of these people who are now no longer living.
R.I.P. your lives were beautiful, and so will your memories
What I don't understand is how did the first shooting happen at 7:15 and the second one 2 hours later? How did the shooter get to the other side of the campus unnoticed?
breaking news: 31 deaths including gunman. No ID on gunman
I'm pretty sure that my friend that goes there is ok. I havent talked to him though
Leave it out guys its over!
I have a feeling it was 2 different shooters. They already stated that the police lead someone away in handcuffs before the second shooting even happened.Quote:
