I didn’t see all of it - here’s a question - has there been any confimation that the shooter was Asian? It seems so odd- Asians in this country are UNDERrepresented in crime stats.

It is not clear whether they don't have a coherent understanding of what happened or are covering up something. Let's hope they know more than they're sharing.

I hope not, they’ll find a third gunman!
This is getting grassy knoll. I really wish the cops would either say nothing or say specifics. This “i’m not saying that I said or didn’t say that” nonsense is ridiculious. A press conference should be a chance to practice riddles... give solid info or don;t hold ‘em.

Let's hope they know more than they're sharing. You know they know a lot more. There's a good reason that they are not sharing more on the dead perp.

Did anyone else see and hear the video that CNN had, in which you could hear several (27) rounds fired followed by a much louder boom? So far I have yet to hear how the killer killed himself. In fact, in this press conf. when giving the time line of events i found it interesting that they said that the cops followed the sound of the shots to the second floor when the shots stopped and they found him dead. Everyone is assuming that he shot himself, but when i listen to the video on CNN and compare it to the time line, i cant help but wonder if the much louder boom at the end of the audio was some sort of explosion. Before you respond with your thoughts, let me say that i know i am engaging in pure conjecture. so go easy. just thinking out loud

A student adviser was called to sort out the row. But the killer produced a gun and shot dead both his girlfriend and the adviser.... I'm guessing the other person of interest would be the guy the girlfriend was seeing

"How difficult would it have been to mobilize and have armed personnel at each building I would say pretty darn hard."
I'm not a lawyer, but if I was one for one of the victims, I would be making this comparison when a hospital security guard and local deputy were shot on the first day of classes of VA Tech.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
August 22, 2006
BLACKSBURG, Va. A manhunt for an escaped convict suspected in the slayings of a hospital guard and a sheriff's deputy shut down the Virginia Tech campus on the first day of classes yesterday as sharpshooters were posted on university rooftops and students scrambled for safety. Link
If I was a reporter, I'd be all over the difference when a couple of LE was shot vs. a couple of students.

RA as one of the initial victims has been confirmed.

You know, within an hour, 100 police cars were on the scene. That’s pretty good for a small town. That and the fact that this hadn’t happened at a college campus for years.
