why aren't we allowed to talk about the VT shooting? - BLINGMW - 04-16-2007
I was hoping to hear from some of the VT car club guys and see if they were alright.

The thread turned into something it wasn't intended to be. If people wanted to start a discussion about concealed carry then it can be its own thread. Not to mention that there were several innappropriate comments made.

Relax Nick, we all have friends down there and are concerned for them. Making some light out of a shitty situation is how some people help ease their own tension and worry. No reason for anyone to get butthurt over what was said.

32 dead now.. SO SAD
- WRXtranceformed - 04-16-2007
Link me where you're seeing 32, CNN is telling me it's still 21 + 20ish injuries.

Word, thanks Blair.

msnbc just posted "Govt. Official says: 31 dead"

btw, CNN has been behind all day - they are pretty much going by university press releases it seems, not all sources

I made a comment... and you can go fuck yourself. because when i worked on campus i was involved in a confrontation with a fire arm... suprise... i didnt actually have the gun... it was a non student! Pull your thong out of your ass and push the kerosine rag up a little farther.

This is Madison Icy Hot Stunnas forum haven't you heard? They need to be coddled and babied and can't be bothered with hard hitting news such as this :roll:
now the discussion can go down a totally different path.

msnbc.com has a live video feed by the way - not just clips. Guy from one of the rooms that was getting shot up is talking right now.

Kaan,
I am not going to resort to name calling to vent my frustration on the matter. Think about your wording before you post. You imply that you wished this had happened here so that you could've had a part in it. Thats not the mentality that someone in law enforcement should have.

thats the beauty of the real world. i dont have to think before i speak. get used to it. next time i'll write out a time line about how when i posted the only reports we had were that there was a shooting... there was no count or confirmation on the number of injured or dead. as soon as you stop judging me i'll stop being an asshole... good luck with that... you are a judgemental stuck up bitch... so i'll continue to be the exact same person i've been since well before you thought about going to JMU.

That being said, Kaan's first post in other thread was VERY misleading, and seemed sadistic. I'm sure that's why Nick reacted the way he did, because I was appalled at first, too. Not more than a handful of people that browse this forum could've possibly known that he used to do the law enforcement thing at JMU.

and once again i've had posts deleted and saved for postarity in an out of context quote in the locked thread. and people wonder why i get into personal attacks.

according to MSNBC, the guy had to of had this planned. The exits of the building were chained, and according to students from the classroom, he walked in with no bookbag or books and had no expression on his face and just started shooting his 9mm.
