Oh. Sorry, I didn't know you were from the US, I just thought it was a "Oh, hurr, look, idiot Americans and their guns" comment. My mistake. |

Kiss me like a beesting

Actually, I almost wanted to bash somebody's skull in for saying the same thing at another forum. I live right outside DC, so this has been all over the news lately. |

If guns were banned, these nutjobs would just find the next weapon in their house. A knife. |

I'd rather be shot then stabbed. Assuming I wasn't killed from either one. But still... UGH. A tiny hole that is formed in milliseconds as opposed to a gaping stab wound with a MUCH better chance of cutting a major artery? Sign me up! (Neither is good too) |

I know 6 people or so at VT, so yes it obviously does. It's even more unsettling that I had a scholarship for the honors college there where I would've been an engineering student. Therefore, I could've most definitely been in the engineering building during the shootings. |

There be no shelter here

I heard about this a couple of hours ago. Pretty bad stuff. Canada had something similar to this in Dawson College in Montreal last September, but it was much less severe, with one dead and nineteen wounded. May the thirty-two fatalities R.I.P |

hey

Wow, that's really scary. This kind of stuff just really sucks, and I doubt there will really be any way to stop it...There's just too many screwed up people. Was this person bullied a lot or what? I just don't get how the thought process would work of someone thinking of doing this... |

Too many dopes

Wouldn't it be funny if they forgot about that one? Seeing as to how it's over 200 years old, they would probably come up with some bullshit anyways. |

Well yeah, it's a Constitutional right. It's not about to go away. Gun control needs to be strengthened though. When they wrote the Constitution automatic guns didn't exist. It was just rifles so it wasn't like one person with a gun had an edge over another man with a gun. |

Right. Back then, rifles were slow to load, inaccurate, and the longest any of them could possibly shoot accurately was 300 yards. Now, one psycho with an AK47 in a market could kill dozens. |

The sicko turned out to be an Asian male who was a resident in one of the dormitories (or the one they found dead, if there were two different shooters) and had two guns, a 9 milimeter 22 caliber. A student said he looked like "a boyscout with a tan vest that buttoned up and a black vest underneath for ammo or something". Another student said that he had "no specific target — just taking out anybody he could." This is really scary, who knows if a copycat will follow him? I think if Columbine did anything for arms safety and sercurity in schools, this is definately going to proudce some changes.. |

Go get him, Daffy!

I was just saying it hurts a lot more when somebody you know was there.
