Virginia Tech Shooting

I thought the 30 people were in several different classrooms?

yea, i just realized it was in different rooms. I don't really watch news a lot...but one of the guys I work with is watching youtube videos of it.

Bleugh, yesterday I overheard a very loud conversation going on between some students about whether the shooter was white or not.

"I heard he was Asian!"

"NO!! There is no way an Asian guy would be a mass-murderer! It HAS TO be a white guy!!"

There was screaming, and throwing, and ... oh dear, the stupidity.

ugh, disgusting. :/

A lot of asians were mass murderers during WW2 ...along with whites etc =P.

I'd heard what happened was that the guy basically walked into a Dorm, executed his Ex-G/F and another guy (presumably her new B/F). He then shot up the classroom 2 hours later. The Dorm and classroom were halfway across the campus (very large place), the reason the campus was not on lockdown was because it had been classified as a 'Domestic Dispute', they had no idea the guy would go shoot up a classroom randomly.

Granted, shooting is a bit more than a typical 'domestic dispute', the lockdown would have reacted entirely too slowly to capture the guy, nor would logic dictate an entire campus lockdown with the information they had at hand.

Excatly what happened.
