not trying to make light of this but I bet Al Sharpton is PISSED he isn't the top story today

BREAKING NEWS: Al Sharpton to sue VA Tech because they failed to protect the black students that were shot and killed!

Fox News now has an image in the lower right alternating between the VT logo and sniper crosshairs.

Take a moment now to think about the dead, and the grieving families - before the media has you feeling sick of hearing about them.

Dot. :(

And then consider what the media is going to blame this time.

That's why I hate fox news. So tasteless.

Do you think students would bring their guns to classes? I don't think I'd want to live in that kind of environment. Anyway, the real problem is even if you had armed students running around campus prepared to shoot the psycho who did all of this, they might end up shooting all the other armed students hunting the guy down.

Hmm, true.. I'd be all for the faculty having guns though.

murder suicide so he's technically 32-0. Local News channel 10 just said he shot himself after doing this.

the death counts you are seeing include the death of the shooter.

no, thats a teamkill. -1 for teamkills, so hes 31 and 1.

edit, I mean 30 and 1.
