Here come the VT lawsuits...

I'm not going to judge folks who have lost their child in a such a terrible manner and frankly, there was negligence on VT's part for not shutting down the school after 2 students were shot and they had not found the shooter.

+1. Probably most of the liability on VT could have been avoided in my opinion if they had at least made an effort to contain the situation after the first two individuals were shot. I've said that from day 1. This is the age of Columbine and suicide bombers after all, it would make sense to take all precautions possible when a situation like that arises again.

And now, unfortunately, the state gets to deal with the wrath of the victim's families and their lawyers. Whether or not it's right or wrong of them to sue like that is not really something I can judge, because I'm not in their shoes. But that's the way things work in America now; if there is even the remote possibility that something could have been done to avoid a terrible situation and it is perceived that it wasn't, the floodgates of lawsuit open and in this case we (the taxpayers) are going to be feeling the effects of it.
