At least 33 people were killed today on the campus of Virginia Tech in what appears to be the deadliest shooting rampage in American history, according to federal law-enforcement officials. Many of the victims were students shot in a dorm and a classroom building

Aren't your questions a bit stupid and moronic or do you think that your the one that maybe is stupid and moronic with your half assed, drive by Brady bill talking points? I've seen your moronic points and its always on the gun, not the gunman. Away DU'ing flying monkey!
It doesn't matter. The 2A only applied to single shot flintlocks and these were only for militias.
My point is, if we can compare the statistics of guns smuggled into this country and used in crimes or otherwise and then compare the statistics of guns legally purchased and subsequently used in crimes or otherwise, we can once and for all say that even if guns are banned, most of the gun crimes or deaths would occur anyway since gun smuggling is the main cause that lead to gun deaths
fyi: schmuckie is licensed to carry a pistol in ny and nyc.
nyc: arguably the hardest gun permit to obtain in the u.s.
Fox is reporting on Bren’s show that he was Asian with no ID. Why type of Asian I guess is next question and the million dollar question, why.
What’s the gunmans name? Has that come out yet or are we still waiting on the “If it’s anything other race but white, we can’t give the name out” PC police?
Nice gun.
I really hope you understand. Restricting gun ownership accomplishes nothing. Police will not protect you, and your LIFE is a NATURAL RIGHT! I grew up in the 'hood. The criminals there don't care about the law, they just don't. M-16s, AK-47, mean nothing to them. They know a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy with the "hook-up". What do you do about that?
As far as emotions, we're supposed to be adults. We all know it is morally wrong and illegal to kill someone out of anger no matter if you feel that way. It doesn't matter if a gun is used, or a kitchen butcher knife, of a rock, or an iron pot, or a just a human fist or foot. I don't believe the gun makes it "easier".
Lou Dobbs: “How Safe Are Our Schools?”
Answer: Apparently no safer than CNN Center...
Interesting if true: the student who slaughtered professors and other students at the University of Iowa 14 years ago was also Asian.
Do you have a point or are you just a hit-n-run coward?
I want some of what you’re smokin’ !!!
Huh?
Most firearms used in the U.S. are made in the U.S.
Also, "gun death" is a useless term. Is that when your gun is so rusty it doesn't work any more? How about "homicide by a criminal armed with a handgun" or something equally descriptive?
Thanks. Wish I’d been at Virginia Tech with it to use on the gunman.
Sir or Madam,
That was the most accurate and most concise crystlization of the matter I believe I have ever seen.
My compliments.
Sincerely,
Mary Carpenter

some dead people less dead than other dead people?
Read the whole article and marvel: it says 33 dead, at least 22 injured and 17 treated; if 33 are dead, how many people died without injuries?
