Yeah, I was just about to post about this. There's an article on CCN.com that's pretty extensive.
They only report 20 dead, though.
Apparently they also had a bomb threat on Friday. And I remember there was a bomb threat earlier in the week at a high school here in GA.
It looks like these things are back on the rise (I won't say starting up again, as I don't believe they ever stopped, if I remember correctly.)
Edit: http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/04/16/vtech.shooting/index.html -- here's the article in case anyone is interested. |

What's worse, this is the second time this year they've had to close the campus. Back in August the escaped convict, and know this.
Also, it sounds like the police believe there was only the one killer.
Apparently a video on cnn.com has 120,000 hits right now. |

Yowch. >_< Columbine terrified me when that happened. This is even closer to home, though, and bigger. My heart goes out to everyone there. |

Everything I have read has said that there was only one known shooter...and now that he is dead, there is a total of 22 dead, with about another 20-24 injured.
This is so horrible, makes me want to cry.
WTF IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?
Good god man, you dont have to take others out if you're miserable in life, if you feel so down and out and messed up and dont want to do anything to make it better, than just do us all a favor and off yourself instead of taking others with you.
Selfish asshats I swear.
Pardon my language, I'm upset, angry and sad all at once  |

I agree completely, Sciler. Though I know why they do it-- publicity. You can go out and make a 'statement' while doing so, y'know? I was miserable, and it's all your fault!
People hate taking responsibility for their own lives, afterall. |

Yeah I just heard about this.
It's pretty sickening. I really don't even know what to say. I mean... can life really be that bad? |

Welcome to the modern age my friend, not a particulary nice place sometimes.
My thoughts go out to to all of the victims and their familys, perhaps this proves once and for all that letting people go anywhere near a gun is just disgusting. |

These kind of situations are the scariest...random person who has what they think is an utterly horrible life and wants to take it out on the random masses.
This is going to be blunt, so you have been warned:
But I wish that ppl like this would just go ahead and take themselves out of the picture rather than going off on a killing spree. But they don't because they are cowards who want the whole world to know how much they're life sucks and want everyone else to share in their misery. These sort of ppl make me sick.
