As we settle into the nighttime of despair, fret not, for the Sun will rise again!!
Good morning!!
We, here, will never forget those who died on September 11, 2001, as we seek to protect the Republic from all who will do her harm!!
Today is the DemoncRAT high holy day.
Regarding Blacksburg, the sequence of events as they appear to be at the moment.
In the morning, an Asian man enters a domitory and starts a conversation with his girl friend. He believed his girl friend has been seeing another man. A quarrel ensued, and a resident advisor was called to sort things out.
Unknown to all, the asian man had entered the dormitory with two 9mm handguns; the Asian man produced a weapon, and shot both the girl and the advisor dead on the spot.
The shooter then calmly crossed the campus to the Burruss Hall classroom complex and entered the building. Conflicting reports exist as to whether the gunman then chained the doors, but they were chained from the inside which police describe as highly unusual.
It was at this point, the gunman, dressed in a maroon hat, leather jacket, black military-style shooting vest, and carrying an "inordinate amount of ammunition" started going classroom to classroom, shooting up each. In some instances, the gunman lined up folks before, essentially, executing them. The gunman would reload his 9mm weapons as he moved from room to room.
There were students who were so terrified they jumped from fourth floor windows. There were other instances where students held doors shut using their feet while butressed against other objects. In the end, some 32 people, both students and professors, were killed and at least 15 wounded before the gunman committed suicide as police closed in.
In the aftermath, calls for "gun control" have arisen anew, notwithstanding the striking down of the Washington, DC, gun control law by the Federal Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit. Let's not forget in this monumental tragedy, the gunman was not inclined to follow the law anyway.
In the Commonwealth, it is illegal to possess a firearm (police excepted) within 100 yards of a school, including colleges and universities. So what would another statute do? Answer, be ignored. But, again, the Federal courts have ruled such unconstitutional anyway.
It is a tragedy. Please respect and pray for the loved ones of the victims, and for those who are wounded.
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.
You’ll get another chance tonite.
That’s great, Jemian. How long will you be stateside?
I would like to make an announcement. I have lost 4 kilos in ugly fat since March 15.
If I can actually get the trip arranged, we’ll be home from about Labor Day to the first week in August.
Congratulations.
Excellent! from Memorial Day..?
Uh yeah, that’s what I meant. Memorial Day.
Atkins
It’s too late to propose
His neighbors in Bath seem delighted he is building there. The three story aquarium? Can you imagine that one?
I was wondering if his mom will live with him. Or if he has bought her a separate home. He does have at least the one child from his HS sweetheart. Not sure they married or if they have more or if they are together still.
I have always loved the estate that you can see off 303 to the south just west of Peninsula. Limited visibility in summer but in winter can see thru the foliage to view the layout of the property in the valley area.
Gotta to get busy here. Have a good day to all
