Actually it is somewhat off base.Va had a bill last year to allow conceal and carry on college campus’s like VT.
VT fought against the law and it died in committee.
And the leaders at VT said their school was now safer because no one would be allowed to carry a concealed gun on campus.
I guess one person didn’t read the rule.

There should at least be administrators and/or teachers with the ability to defend themselves and the students. I don’t think that allowing the general student body to be armed is realistic unless considerable safeguards are taken.

It was the VT board of trustees who initiated the “no guns on campus” rule.

All that is needed for an example of where a disarmed citizenship results in the same being massacred is any country where terrorists, in the name of the ROP, swoop down and slaughter those unable to defend themselves, having been previously been stripped of the right to bear arms by either one of the two colonizing nations who thought this was in their best interests.
Other examples include communist regimes who, after striping the citizenry of arms proceeded to implement their pogrom's, the likes of Hitler, Stalin/Lenin, Pol Pot come to mind.

I do not understand why the people at VT did not fight back.
I do understand why they didn’t have guns (against the law), but why in heaven didn’t they throw books, shoes, desks, backpacks, anything loose at the creep, and attack him?
Why, in flight 93 were there so many willing to die to stop the hijackers, and on a college campus there was nobody willing to even try is quite baffling to me.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't most of these bans happen under a Republican Congress?

Bears repeating:
32 more dead, Congress.
Repeal all gun laws and respect the sovereignty of the citizen over the illusion that a criminal will obey laws you write.
