Well, according to the guy's wife, he knew guns. Supposedly, he had been to court for mental disorders long before this.

You have to give credit to the Superintendent trying to talk the guy down. The entire board was pretty damn calm from the YouTube video.

I give the guy credit or extreme courage, but he was not talking him down.. He was riling him up

"I don't know your wife" "I'll be honest, I don't have a clue who you are talking about" ETC

Makes him seem cold and uncaring to the nutter. Should have just focused on "tell us about your wife" till the cops showed

Yeah, just fucking wonderful. 

 

I live just two or three blocks from this school. Horrible, horrible shit.

Another one happening now.  Gardena High in L.A.  Three students shot, suspect not in custody as of now.

 

ETA: Looks like it was accidental.  Dumbass had the gun in his backpack, set down the bag, and the gun discharged.  Two kids were hit, one in the neck, the other in the head, and are both at the hospital.

Yeah one of my friends lives down there. He commented on Facebook how "US-style" it was. Damn copycats!

 

Really fucked up though.

"According to a military police officer, he was approached on the street two blocks from the school by a student who had been shot in the face. He asked for aid and said that there was a shooter at the school." 

 

For some reason, this the most disturbing line in the piece to me, probably because I imagine myself freezing up the sight of something like that. This is going to sound strange (especially since I generally blanch at violence), but since we obviously can't stop people from losing their shit and going on rampages every now and again, I would at the very least prefer that one of these assholes take a note from Travis Bickle and gun down a bunch of guys that probably won't be missed. I mean, come on, you can't find a den of crooked motherfuckers in Brazil to take your anger out on? You have to go to an elementary school? Really? Please, be thoughtful and constructive when engaged in a murderous, psychopathic outburst.

There was just a school shooting right up the street from my place.  I am freaked.  Cape Fear High School in Fayetteville NC is on lockdown right now.  A girl was shot during lunch.  No news on her condition.  SWAT teams are there.  The street is cordoned off.  Parents are outside in tears.  I'm staying indoors until this is resolved.

CNN is reporting that shots have been fired at Virgina Tech. The school is in lockdown.

It was a police officer shot.

Oh Virginia Tech. Why so much shooting?

post #662 of 667

I've read that at least 3 people were shot. Not sure how reliable that is, my source is a friend of a friend on facebook.

Last I heard it was two, including the officer. Scary stuff.

Two down. One officer, one other, according to ABC News.

 

Which came first, did Virginia Tech attract shooters, or were shooters attracted to Virginia Tech?

The cop was killed after pulling the guy over.  The second body was found in the parking lot the suspect fled to, so it's a pretty good bet that when they find out what car that person drove they'll know what the guy got away in.

Sounds more like a traffic stop gone wrong than a person deciding to shoot up the Campus. My heart goes out to the victims families.
