WoW, fucking sad. Seems like there has been a shooting of some sorts every week now for a while.

Ya- It's almost an act of cruelty to even bring a newborn kid into this f'd up world. It's worse every year. Makes me appreciate my '70's and 80's years.

The world isn't coming to anything, this type of crap will always happen unfortunately because people have problems. Chemical imbalances, father beating them or not hugging them, etc.

I wish they would say how that shooter met his end. Hopefully it was a headshot from the police. And if they said his name, that would be a little justice because his family would come under the spotlight. Nothing like Media to make things worse.

I was amazed by the news, that is all. If you dont have anything positive to say then keep quiet. Pretty sure things are getting worse as time goes on if you havent noticed. Dont you have a tree to hug somewhere?

Yeah, it's bad but in the big picture, there have been worse events involving crazy people and guns. (btw, jet - why bad assault weapons when he used pistols? )
Peter - pretty sure I've polluted more than you ever have, that tree hugger comment came out of nowhere.

I made that comment before they said he used pistols. I figured he used an AR-15 or AK-47 or something. Luckily he didn't!

I dont see where you said anything positive.

I was just going to post this up too. Crazy! It sounds like one of those engineering guys went nuts. You never can trust those engineers! I always try to keep my good eye on 'em.

I just heard 22 dead and 21 injured. That crazy bastard was going to kill over 40 people, all this for looking for his girlfriend. And she was found with a DSM'er, and the Dude lost it, must be a Honda owner. But on a serious note very tragic.

Re: 22 dead at Virginia Tech

A co-worker of mine made a good point, the one person excited about a story this big is Imus. Cause he's out of the light now.

Re: 22 dead at Virginia Tech

As for stuff getting worse I'm not sure if I agree with that. Bad stuff has always happened, but with how comprehensive the media is we are able to hear about every little sneeze that happens 1000 miles away. The world will always have bad things happening, always have, always will, you just need to focus on the good since that still far outweighs the bad. We are all alive and most of us are living good lives so be thankful for that.

Re: 22 dead at Virginia Tech

The 2nd worse campus shooting was in 1966, so it happened even back then. Now we will probably start hearing about assault weapons bans again.
