Shooting at Va. Tech

Re: Another shooting at Va. Tech

That's probably not the only thing he prayed for. He might have dropped a word in about smiting Whitlock too.

 

Re: Another shooting at Va. Tech

Of course somebody else with a 9mm could have stopped this guy before he killed 25 people.

 

Re: Another shooting at Va. Tech

If classes actually were in session two hours after the first shots were fired, then the school fucked up really badly. That's just unconscionable.

In any case, I suspect there will be a lot of wrongful-death lawsuits against VT. Not that those will bring anybody back, unfortunately.

 

Re: Another shooting at Va. Tech

Amen.

 

Re: Another shooting at Va. Tech

the shooter had a three hour window...

why the hell didnt virginia tech cancel classes...or do something to stop the mass murder that took place three hours after the original shooting.

 

Re: Another shooting at Va. Tech

So Wild West law? Personally I would have rather the university did their job and cancel classes, secure the campus and protect the students.

 

Re: Another shooting at Va. Tech

That's what I was expecting. Angry at uppity bitches? Grab the Glock.
Nice.

 

Re: Another shooting at Va. Tech

Has it been ascertained that the two shootings were connected? Is it possible the early shooting was completely unrelated to the later one and the suspect in the first shooting was in custody?

The reason I ask is that there are reports of two shooters, with one of them still being alive. Could this be a horrible, horrible coincidence? Two shootings on the same campus on the same day? If that's the case then I could see why there would have been an "all clear" if someone was captured after the first shooting.

 

Re: Another shooting at Va. Tech

Again, just a guess, but they could have had reason to believe the first incident was isolated, like maybe that was the actual ex-girlfriend or something. Maybe there was two shooters, and they had the first one in custody.

We don't even know how many people died yet. It seems a little early to be furious about the campus not being shut down. Clearly someone did fuck up, but we just don't know anything yet.

 

Re: Another shooting at Va. Tech

You don't blow away 25 poor fuckers over a girlfriend. No way. This guy was probably teetering on nuts and the girlfriend breaking up with him probably tipped him over the edge, but no way do you shoot - what, 50 people? - over a girlfriend.

 

Re: Another shooting at Va. Tech

If somebody stopped that shooter we wouldn't be calling the guy a vigilante, we'd be calling him a hero.

 

Re: Another shooting at Va. Tech

Oh I don't disagree with that.
