Press conference is saying twenty dead and the shooter is deceased. This is not a targeted shooting as the FOX news analyst contended. This is sounding more and more like a terror attack. Possibly a lone gunman nut job.

But.....I think that firearms are forbidden on campus. How can this be? Another group of sheep shorn while helpless before a wolf.

Twenty + dead. Watch out for the new calls for massive gun control laws. VT MAY well be used as the example....It's for the children...!

Just heard the shooter has been described as ASIAN looking. They don't know if if he was a student or not. There is also some conflict in these reports. TWO incidents. ONE SHOOTER (declared) but the cops are saying there is no evidence yet to declare the incidents are linked? Watch out. If this was a case of Sudden Jihad Syndrome, it will be covered up, especially if there was really more than one shooter and one or more got away. If this was a planned attack by a terror cell this could just be the first in a series....

My God...this just keeps getting worse. I’m thinking I’m going to put my .45 in my back pack, Better to be tried by 12 than carried by 8.

This is why guns shouldn’t be banned on campus. How the hell are students supposed to defend themselves?

Is it just me, or does anyone else think all the evil stuff happens in mid to late April?

Whether this is the perp or just someone who resembled whom the police were looking for is still in question.

So very sad....prayers to all their families.

It proves that if ONE is WILLING TO DIE, nothing can be done to stop the killing of innocents here in the United States or 'ANYWHERE' else in the world.

FoxNews had better be carefull with the images they are showing. Showing pictures of victims before any parents are notified is horrible.

What a tragedy. Now we will all have to sit through the idiots in the DBM putting out eroneous information, and grabbing up every anti-gun proponent for free airtime. I can’t wait until the first presser featuring the dumbest people on the planet asking stupid questions.

CNN is reporting that high winds are impacting life-flight helos from picking up some injured and taking them to other medical facilities.

Gee, I wonder why there are so many more shootings at schools and colleges than at police stations? Oh, here's why.

I live right across the street from the campus. This place was crawling with police and ambulances.

I have been completly freaked out all morning. When they said the gunman was loose I armed myself with a knife and kept my eyes on the windows. What a horrible tragedy for me personally. Blacksburg will never be the same from now on.

Sadly, that cellphone video of the gun shoots will be the viral video of the day.

Technology allows us all to share the good and bad anymore.
