hey gang..

If you haven't heard already, some crazy idiot opened fire in a dorm and a classroom killing 21 students at V Tech. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/200...oting

NICO has many members from Blacksburg.. many of whom may be students at V. Tech. Let's pray that our members are OK, and for the best for everyone else at Virginia Tech.

Sorry repost!

I'm in between classes right now at the College of William and Mary on the other side of Virginia, and we're all in shock here. A lot of us (myself included) know people there. How things like this can happen at a school is beyond me....

I live in Northern Virginia and have a lot of friends at Virginia Tech, so far everyone I've talked to is okay, thank God.

I can't even explain the sadness I feel and felt when I first heard about this. My prayers go to the familes of those who were brutally killed today =(

a student from V. Tech started it.. zerothread/243512

My wife and I have dear friends who work for Athletes in Action full time on staff at V. Tech. We are praying that they were nowhere near this mess, and that they can be helpful councilors to the student body in the coming weeks.

More guns than people in the country. That's how.

God Bless America and the 2nd amendment and the NRA!! We love you Charleton Heston!

Poor kids, go for an education, get shot by some nut with easier access to guns than alcohol.

That comment right there will get this thread locked. You must have forgotten that guns do not kill people, people kill people. A gun/weapon is just a tool for a killer to use. He could have easily used a bomb. So god bless america and guns because without them, a lot of us wouldn't have had much food on the table years back.

Just because I have gun's doesn't mean I am going on a killing rampage. Fools like this prey on the defenseless, never the strong. Coward. And if he wanted to do this with strickter gun laws, the gun would probably not have been boughten thru normal channels anyway.

My prayers to those effected by this.

I'm guessing he'd sit on top of a building and snipe them with his new x460 driver.

Since we're both wrong, can we quit arguing about how great guns are and let this go back to a condolence thread?

Hey Falk, Iowa.. We had a chance to discuss gun control in a previous thread... let's leave any opinions that might be polarizing to ourselves.. .

Can we keep this thread to the topic itself and our condolences to those affected rather than turning this into any kind of argument...

please and thank you!

They are saying this is the worst school shooting in US History now with 21 innocent victims.

Edited the thread title.

The House of Representives had a moment of silence earlier for the victims, friends, and family.

The President is speaking at 4:15pm .

A press conference at the school will be at 4:30pm.

Oh my God... I was sort of in shock about this whole thing just taking in the details... but hearing these kind of details about how they were killed.. I'm very sick about it now... how awful!

Yeah, but when I posted that... Only the first shooting had occurred. I had no idea what was coming latter in the morning. Truly shocking, I'm glad that so far all my friends are alright.

save your hippy bull****. gun availability has nothing to do with this. bottom line is if someone wants to kill people, they are going to find a way to do it.

my deepest condolences and sympathy to all those affected.
