    Some kid took a cell-phone video from outside the dorm. You can see the flashes in the windows, hear the screams and the gunfire. CBS has the video now.

    The issue of purchasing guns in Virginia and how easy it is, has been questioned for some time. In fact, New York's Mayor is suing several gun owners in the state over it.

    I’m just saying I think our law enforcement priorities are way off. If someone has marijuana in their pocket, or a gun, which is more deadly?

    I don’t think any civilian should have a gun for any reason, but I think the least we can do is make it much harder to get one.

    The same kinds of communications problems severely handcuffed rescue and recovery operations during and after Katrina.

    You can probably expect many more of these to pop up, that's for sure.

    What could she have possibly done to make him feel so emasculated?

    Why would he kill innocent bystanders?

    This is a sick world.

    I know nothing about guns. Dumb question: Is a 9mm something that is "automatic" or "semi-automatic"? In other words, has a "magazine"?

    Make it tougher. Make people accoutable as much as possible for guns in their property.

    Take away the guns if you want.

    But it still won't keep a lunatic from doing something like this if he wants to bad enough.

    I wouldn't call others sick if I were you.
    Your opinion means nothing here.

    And Boots, how many mass murders have you been able to deal with?

    So we shouldn’t do everything we can (which is a lot more than we’re doing) to control them? Do you really believe that? Surely you don’t.

    I’m sure glad everyone doesn’t think like you. It would be hard to control guns, so let’s not even try. What a thought.
