Chief: At least 20 dead in Virginia Tech campus shootings - CNN.com
...
How could someone do that? It's like Columbine all over again, except more people. The toll has risen to 22 people dead...
Anyone on the boards affected by this insane tragedy, my heart goes out to you...
Yeah, ive been watching the news. This is a tragedy.
Some people from my graduating class go there...
Its so sad = (
I just watched the columbine video of the kids shooting people then shooting them selfs...Scary shit man scary shit
Its another terrible targedy in American schools! Why do the US government insist on having such ridiculous gun laws! How many kids need to die before they will change? Why do these shootings only ever seem to happen in America? You would think they would put 2 + 2 together!
Its not the guns, its the mental condition and ignorance of mankind.
Of course its the guns without the guns those people would be still alive! Granted the person that did it must have been fucked up but without the guns this would probably never have happened. Why does this only seem to regularly occur in America?Quote:

they would have gotten guns illegaly or just made a bomb or something. it is still a tragedy.Quote:

Exactly, put it this way. George Bush is our president, and Al Sharpton basically runs who gets persecuted for racism and who doesn't.Quote:

Man half the people I know from high school go there. Some of my best friends do and I still haven't heard from them. I'm seriously considering driving over there right now to see if I know anyone that was murdered, but they probably wouldn't let me in. I'm still in shock.
This made me think of a song by Ill Bill called the anatomy of a school shooting
Terrible tragedy :(
how did i know a response like this was coming. coming from someone who smokes weed and sees what kind of damage having weed illegal causes. imagine if all guns were illegal, that would create ten times the crime here in the US.Quote:

you know i really hate to tell you this... but the uk has made guns 'illegal', and crime hasn't decreased, infact it increased... outlawing guns does absolutely nothing, except possibly take an innocent person's only defense against a gun wielding maniac....Quote:

matter of fact, if you know the right people you can even buy them CHEAPER then they're sold for in the stores.... since all they did was steal them from a buisness, or someone's house...
Now it's 32 dead...
People will kill people whether they have a gun or not... Are we gonna outlaw knives? Hands can kill you, why shouldn't we chop those off?
It's not the weapon, it's the user...
EDIT:
Thanks for pointing this out... /sarcasmQuote:

wow this is officially by far the biggest shooting rampage in US history now, only a couple minutes from my house, probably involving some of my best friends. what the fuck.
this is the talk of the campus right now. i have a feeling we will be watching the news in poli-sci today.
Holy shit, now it's 42 fatalities...
This is the only time I will ever watch Fox news, I promise :P
Guns don't kill people, just like drugs don't.
Anyway, Tim and whoever else, keep us posted. Hope noone you know was involved. Horrible shit.
Exactly, when you outlaw guns you prevent decent people who register and safely use guns from having protection, drug dealers, and murders don't and can't buy guns legally. This kid was just crazy, like Chris Rock said in 99 "What ever happened to crazy, What you can't be crazy no more?"Quote:

Supposedly "A man of Asian descent" was carrying a bookbag, and then whipped out some chains, chained the doors shut, and then lined everyone up, and shot them execution style...
Just the thought of that makes me want to spit on his dead body...
Do you think if someone went up to him, and offered him a bowl, would he have chilled out?
This makes me sick.
if he asks for a shotgun, he's not getting oneQuote:

what kinda gun was used? i just watched this video on aol caught on a cell phone.... you can hear the gun shots.... i heard atleast 50 over a period of 40-50 seconds....
So does that mean you're coming?!
I'll have red shoes, a dictator Pink shirt on, and I'll be in the front left.
I have a purple purse, so I'll stick the nanner in there :D
EDIT: Sounded like a handgun, that's what the news said...
EDIT: He was using two 9mm.
Your friends parents must be having a heartattack. Have you tried to get a hold of them?Quote:

edit: apparently he had two 9mm handguns (according to the news)
He was using two 9mm says Fox and CNN...
Peace to the people who got shot, and their family, friends etc. Thats some fucked up shit.
well... considering what i heard on that video... he either had some serious gun, or a hell of alot of ammo...Quote:

buzzuk~yeah cause making somehitng illegal sure gets rid of it :rolleyes: get real.
