Super User KU_Bassmaster. Posted April 16, 2007 Super User Posted April 16, 2007 Reports are up to 32. This is horrible Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 What happen to the person that did this? Quote
Super User KU_Bassmaster. Posted April 16, 2007 Super User Posted April 16, 2007 What happen to the person that did this? Supposedly right now they think it's one shooter and he ended up killing himself Quote
Super User KU_Bassmaster. Posted April 16, 2007 Super User Posted April 16, 2007 now they are saying the police killed him. Quote
Troutfisher Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 Update: 32 confirmed dead and 28 injuries have been reported. What a horrifying day. By the way, I don't know if this is coincidence or what, but the Columbine shootings occured this week. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted April 16, 2007 Super User Posted April 16, 2007 Columbine April 20, 1999. Probably NOT a coincidence. Quote
Deb Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 Now they're saying 31 dead. So many lives lost and so many more forever changed! From someone who has lost a child, I pray the families and friends can find peace and are able to learn how to live again somewhere down the road. We all at sometime complain about the "little" stuff. Definately puts LIFE in perspective. Appreciate everyone you love, you never know when you won't have the opportunity to tell them face to face.

RiskKid. Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 An incredibly senseless tragedy. There is no answer to this but why do people just lose it like this. It makes no sense. Prayers to all affected by this. Quote
RecMar8541 Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 niksfishinmom well said. Isnt that the truth you just never know. I dont think anyone will ever or can ever understand when something like this happens. They will make a ton of excuses why it happened. Theyll try to take useless measures to insure it dosent happen again, which are pointless. My heart goes out to these people. What the hell is happening to people these days?? Quote
edbassmaster Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 This world is headed downhill IMO...Depressing!! Thousands of troops fighting for our freedom overseas...some lunatic taking it away from us here...sad. Quote
Ky_Lake_Dude Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!! my prayers are out to all the families whoe have lost loved ones or have had a loved one injured. Quote
Ky_Lake_Dude Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 isnt this the second shooting this year? yeah they had one on the day classes began back in August Quote
fishbear Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 It is a sad day when something like this happens. Why people who go off the deep end have to take others with them will be a mystery that may never be solved. Those who have been wounded or have lost loved ones, will have millions praying for them, me included. :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( Quote
Super User Dan: Posted April 16, 2007 Super User Posted April 16, 2007 Being from VA, I know a lot of people who go to VaTech, thank God they are alright. This is awful. I've seen some reports that say he lined up people and shot them one by one. That would explain why the number of killed is greater than the number injured. Usually in shootings like this there are far more injuries than kills because of the chaos of the situation making it difficult for the shooter to hit anyone. If he actually did line them up, that would explain it. It would also be disgusting, it makes me cringe just thinking of it. BTW, the last shooting was not a student, it was an escaped convict. Quote
michbass Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 This world is headed downhill IMO...Depressing!! Thousands of troops fighting for our freedom overseas...some lunatic taking it away from us here...sad. Couldnt have said it better. God Bless our Troops and the people involved in VA. Quote
John J. Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 My prayers and thoughts to all those lost and their families... I read on the news 31 died and 22 injured...plus they found the suspect dead at the scene, I guess the crazy nut killed/injured the students and then took his own life... It's tragedies like this that make us look like an uncontrolled country and therefore that's why terrorists like Iraqis invade us and attack us. And to think I may apply at VT in the next year or two...sheeesh! I would hate for this to happen to me if I go there!! > Quote
VABasser Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 Yeah its terrible and crazy. I know a number of people there now and I am going there next year. :-/ Definately going to make a big difference at Tech. It's a shame there's people like that in this world. Quote
