Clefo Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 Now, I know you're thinking this is another news thread, but myself living, gee I don't know, TEN MINUTES from the sight of those shootings and my school being two, perhaps I could provide some insight (Article Here) Well you see.. During the day there were a lot of Helicoptors flying above. A person who rides my bus, apparently, knows one of the victims, lots of police cars driving down our way. What makes things a little bit iffy is that the Democratic candidate for govenor is visiting my school tommarow, that'll probably be talked about a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel sorry for the victims and the ones close to them...what an unnecessary waste of life, just because of one persons raving... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue15 Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 i have a little sympathy for the shooter...think about it. You've joined the military so that you can go to college to get a career, you get out of military, and you end up failing. i'd probably think about doing the stuff he did, but i wouldn't go through with it!!!

Zygomaticus Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 true that it is a motive to be sad...but a motive to kill...i don't think anything can justify the killing of innocent people who mean you no harm or who have nothing to do with your failure..

Surfnshannon Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 somehow the words....gulf war veteran goes postal after failing his nursing class...almost makes me laugh. sorry. some guy who is training to help people and work in a hospital to save lives...is going around trying to end them. No wonder he is failing.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taos Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 I heard about this earlier in the day........something about two professors getting shot/killed as well. Is that right? Also, did the shooter kill himself/herself?? Another sad day in an American learning institution......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy_dog no.3 Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 That's sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfnshannon Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 ya - its on the cnn.com website. Apparently he killed 3 professors and then shot himself. Students said there were like 15 gunshots heard. They said in the article that they were not sure if the guy was actually a student at the university but there was talk that he was and was upset about something to do with midterms. He was 41 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zygomaticus Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 well, if he was a gulf war veteran in college, then 41 makes sense, i guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
