Virginia Tech shooting - Blind Man - 04-16-2007
Has anybody heard about it? On the news it says 31-32ish people are dead, and it's the deadliest shooting in US history, nevermind just schools. Do we know anybody that goes there?

wtf is this 32 I keep hearing. It's only 21.
Suck either way but... not 32. <.<
Virginia Tech shooting - Burter - 04-16-2007
CNN is confirming it to be 31 right now.
Virginia Tech shooting - Bojack - 04-16-2007
Yeah, nvm... MSNBC says 31 now, but just ten minutes ago it was 21.
Virginia Tech shooting - Burter - 04-16-2007
When I walked in my house, it was 29 and then went to 31.
CNN is saying 31 dead, at least 29 injured
Virginia Tech shooting - Burter - 04-16-2007
CNN just said the shooter is one of the 31 dead.

I'm talking on WoW with some guildies at the moment, one of them goes to V Tech.
Evedently they have no motive for him yet, and he killed himself once he was "finished".

Probably needed meds. =x

Or just needed someone to talk to before he went insane and took innocent lives...very sad. Very sad indeed.

How many asian spree killers have there been?
Virginia Tech shooting - Blind Man - 04-16-2007
It's all fucked up white boys.
Virginia Tech shooting - Metal Koola - 04-16-2007
This is true, and it furthers my belief:
White guys invent stuff, asians perfect them.

Hahahaha. Heh.
China invented, like, everything.

He didn't need meds, he probably needed a frickin' authority figure in his life to tell him to stop being a bitch. There is NO excuse for going on a killing spree. Not on innocent people. If it was for freedom or to protect loved ones, sure. But because mommy and daddy didn't pay him attention...
This just strikes a little close to home for me. There was a school shooting at Heritage High School in Conyers, Georgia when I was in middle school. I was on the bus outside of the highschool (we were dropping the high schoolers off first) when the gun shots rang out and everyone ran away. I don't think anyone died, but i was dating the shooter's little sister at the time. I knew him. He had no reason to do what he did. Saying this Va. Tech guy needed meds is a fucking cop out. He just wanted attention and I'm glad he blew it through his own head.
