Virgina Tech Shooting - Over 30 Dead?

Well, lets see. Walk the dorms with me and listen to hip hop gangster music playing violent tunes, see Billy Bible get mocked out of class and silenced in the class, step over 3somes and out of control sexual promiscuity in the co-ed dorms, notice every other kid sleeping in instead of being in class, hear professors rant against God, Christians, creation, and capitalism, stop by the beer-guzzling drunk fraternities, watch as protestors scream out against America, count the endless piercings and tatoos on every inch of the "I've got my rights" student's bodies.............then after you puke at modern America's college campuses, the answer should be pretty clear.

The only thing you can do is pray that they will be safe. If this kind of massacre can happen in Blacksburg, then it can happen anywhere. I graduated from Virginia Tech and it is a beautiful, quiet place where the only excitement the police ever get is maybe breaking up some loud fraternity parties (until the freaked inmate escaped last August and shot the deputy and the guard). I think it was just a whacko who freaked out and started shooting. The sad thing to me is that someone who is so mentally ill could have the access to weapons and the knowledge to be able to reload ammunition so quickly and shoot so many people singlehandedly. Where is the gun control?

what a wonderful and concerning question. there really isnt a clear cut way to ever stop this kind of thing from happening and they seem to be happening more and more. it could probably all begin or start with our little children. we never know what kind of environment they are being raised in but there should be a class at school that teaches tolerance. people seem to lack that these days. they dont have tolerance for anything and they totally lack coping skills. i think those two things are very important. kids want to fight and shoot and kill instead of thinking things through on a rational and safe level. dont you agree. i dont know how we can keep out children safe. thats another great question. we can only hope that they will come home to us every day safe and sound and without incident. and for those families that have lost a child in the shooting today, if they are religious then i pray they will get through this terrible ordeal and that god be with them in their time of sorrow and later in their time of healing. and for the survivors i can only hope they will seek mental help to cope with what they have been through. dont you agree?

have you even been to a public skool with kids above the age of 11 (6th grade) listen to all the rumors and stuff about violence snd someonr kickin some1 elses butt. also the music is so violent it makes kids think we have to be like that in order to be popular even though you can try to prevent it there is always gonna be a crazy 1 in the skool sometimes there are 3, 4 ,or even 27 of them talk to your kids and make them understand that being violent is not kool or even will make you popular

I want more than anything to stop all this. I wish I had the power to prevent these massacres from happening all over the world. These kind of issues make me want to start some kind of charity or something to see what I can do to help.

Maybe the best thing is for parents to get more involved in their kids affairs. Get involved in their life's. Watch close and monitor their friends, TV shows, Internet usage, etc. Keep your eyes open and disclose anything suspicious to the authorities.

i'm sorry you had such poor reports with the two the school and the youngsters in it. teenagers would nicely be so propose and regrettably became into rather much completely disregarded via the academics and administration. It has in ordinary terms been those days with the notoriety that bullies have carried out that something is being executed. The shooter became into referred for treatment yet he ought to no longer be made to choose for it. on condition that he became into an instantaneous threat to himself or others/ in many situations via violence ought to he be held 24 hours for psychiatric assessment. This synthetic no overt threats to anybody. He became right into a loner that no person incredibly knew and he stored it that way. little doubt there have been indicators that he became into emotionally afflicted yet they might in ordinary terms propose. It became into in ordinary terms after this poor slaughter that they might inspect his own assets and discover all the products of the puzzle that presented perception into this guy's abhorrent habit. i think of all of us agree that this would desire to never have surpassed off and we want we could substitute issues. some wish he dropped out of faculty, others wish he sought help and there are in all danger some who wish he basically killed himself. it incredibly is a poor tragedy for all in contact. EDIT***** i'm happy you have chanced on happiness. I additionally agree that no person would desire to kill somebody else. it incredibly is tricky to think of doing the type of component till you have been out of your strategies.

Al Sharpton and Jessee Jackson inspired that guy for shooting.

If anyone can come up with a reliable and

workable answer to this question, they would

be a hero, for sure.

that's what i tried to ask! why didn't they evacuate the students after the first fatality? When two hours later, 29 more died?
