I'm glad he didn't have access to a tank

4/16/2007 1:03:52 PM

seriously i like doggin on UNC as much as the next guy but we're talking about a couple dozen people our age, doing what we do (going to school), who happened to get shot dead just for going to class or being in their dorms...can we get a half day of not being extreme assholes about the situation?

Honest to God I hope you were joking, and even if you were you're an asshole.

^^again...could be humorous, helps everyone not get so depressed over the VT shooting, but probably not a good idea this soon after

I knew it wasn't a black guy, they can't hit 22 people shooting a gun sideways.

can anybody back this up? where'd you hear this from? link?

4/16/2007 1:21:08 PM

those were posts from a guy at vtech on another message board.

the chit chat thread talked about the cell phone video, so there may be a link there.

4/16/2007 1:22:30 PM

i dont think the cellphone video has anything visually noticeable...just some people running and some sounds of gunshots...its not like a snuff film, from what i've heard

4/16/2007 1:22:37 PM

news says 22 people dead.... http://www.nbc11.com/news/12158092/detail.html?dl=mainclick

This shit cant be prevented. In all likelyhood, its some student with no criminal record, some guy who got depressed and thought FUCK IT IM OUTIE AND SO ARE AS MANY PEOPLE AS I CAN FIND.

Of course, mothers are going to wail, fathers are going to point angry fingers and the university will be forced to do something retarded like put metal detectors in all the classrooms.

April 16: An unidentified man is restrained during a manhunt on the Virginia Tech campus in Blacksburg, Va., following shootings that left around 20 people dead.

The caption says "April 16: An unidentified person is carried out of Norris Hall at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Va." and follows a similar picture with the caption "April 16: Injured occupants are carried out of Norris Hall at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Va."

You would think some of the folks standing down the line would say "what the hell" and rush the guy.

4/16/2007 1:49:14 PM

News Lady: Where did you get shot?

Student: The bullet went into the bicep and out through the tricep

News Lady: So you knew you were injured?

....

sigh.

Fox News says 32 killed and 21 injured!!! Also their front page picture...how do you know that the person they are carrying is just wounded, not dead and they are trying to get him to safety? I mean the caption they have isn't helpful at all. It does look like he is handcuffed but he could have been the shooter and they shot him or he shot himself but was still alive and they were taking him to the ambulance to see if they could save him to get some answers out of him. I really don't think that the pic of Fox News is that graphic.
Also I would like to know what happened to the two students (1 male & 1 female) who reportedly from a previous news story jumped from one of the buildings in an attempt to flee! It said that the guy was fine and limped away I believe but that the girl didn't land so well and was laying there.

Also the UNC comment was horrible and completely uncalled for!

Cool picture of an "unidentified man being restrained"...

Oh wait, lets cuff him and restrain him because he is Asian.

4/16/2007 2:00:59 PM

^ Better to cuff a guy you don't know and have him be innocent that ignore him and get shot in the back.

4/16/2007 2:07:35 PM

Cuffing asian people you see after the shooter has been reported asian. Not racist and ok.

Cuffing asian people you see because you think it's more likely they are going to be a shooter. Racist and not ok.

Nothing wrong with what they did.

4/16/2007 2:13:23 PM

^Yeah definitely true.

I just thought it was crazy how THAT guys picture was plastered all over foxnews.com
