Holy Crap - Massacre At Virginia Tech

[Diomedes]

you can say it doesnt affect you AND it can be a tragic sad horrifying event

No one has said this isn't an awful story. 

[Rome]

the biggest mass killing in America, at a college university, and people are complaining about the media coverage...here's a thought, watch a DVD.

I watched the Sabres/Islanders last night.  That was more excruciating than the non-stop news blubbering.

Good point. I wasn't thinking of the locals or whatnot. I mean, while 9/11 affected every single one of us profoundly, those who lived/worked in NYC or DC or for the airlines, etc. at the time were affected differently than the rest of us

no different than any tragic story

romey dosnt seem to care all to much about yesterday yet he has a screen name in rememberance of a football player who died in a car accident

I never said it wasn't shocking, sad or horrible.  I merely suggested that a little perspective is in order considering this kind of thing (and much worse) happens every day around the world.

Show some respect, reese.  After all 30+ people died yesterday.  This is no time to be discussing peripheral issues.  We should all be GRIEVING at a time like this!

Idiot.

Cho Seung-hui  was identified by law enforcement authorities as the shooter in the Virginia Tech massacre.

According to Virginia Tech, Cho was an undergraduate student in his senior year as an English major. He was a South Korean student and a resident alien in the United States, and had a permanent address listed in Centreville, Virginia.

ABC News reports Cho left a "disturbing note" before killing two people in a dorm room, returning to his own room to re-arm and entering a classroom building on the other side of campus to continue his rampage.[4] Cho's identity has been confirmed with a positive fingerprint match on the guns used in the rampage and with immigration materials.



i found this on another board from a VT student...

"As a Virginia Tech student who was on campus during the shootings - I have just one thing to add to this thread.

Last semester I took a class in playwriting. There was an Asian kid who I've had two classes with. He never said -one- word to anyone, even the Proffesor.

A play he wrote went thussly: A kid was fed up with his life and decided to kill many of his fellow students.

I'm currently looking for my copy of the play, but I will not be surprised if this turns out to be the guy."

[Rome]

You're focusing on me instead of the tragedy again, reese.  You're not showing the proper amount of deference or respect for the dead.

Shame on you.

"I'm currently looking for my copy of the play..."
