It could be “I have nothing to lose now, I’m going to take out everybody” type of situation. He shoots the girlfriend and then goes out and loads up.

If it was a rampage, it was a pretty damn efficient rampage.

Perhaps. Occam’s Razor and all.

However, there’s something about the story line that doesn’t pass the smell test.

It seems odd that having killed his girlfriend in the heat of passion, the perp could come up with a chillingly perfect plan to commit mass murder and acquire the means to do so, all in a two hour period when the campus was ostensibly locked down.

No matter. This could happen at any school, anywhere, and there but for the grace of God go we.

I started to follow this from noon on and found, gulp, MSNBC had the best coverage. Fox was so out of it that it was pathetic.

One fact came to the fore for me immediately. The wind is atrocious here and I am north of you. They mentioned no choppers in or out meaning that some could not be evacuated to major trauma centers (as in Charlottesville). Also, even the big brass coming to assist had to drive in instead of fly.

In your gut, do those on scene think this lack of aerial movement was kind of a “force multiplier?” Also, why did this “beast” chain the doors in the one building; that sounds pre-meditated to me.
