Stalinist democrats are evidently running the place, so the students will continue to be cannon fodder when a psychopath goes onto the campus with murderous intentions.

If the victims were shot to death, then some of the blood is on the hands of the VT leadership.

Why aren't their students allowed to have a concealed weapon if they are licensed/registered to do so?

My blood pressure went up after reading this:

Wow, Virginia Tech again.

Just now watching Virginia Tech leading #1 Wake Forest (68-62, 4:30 left) — at Wake (Winston-Salem, NC), and I’ll bet 99% of those on VT’s campus are glued to the tube — or were, before this news.

Prayers for the victim. Hope everyone is OK. I pray that the libtards don’t make a spectacle and exploit this.

CNN Campbell Brown, “no bias, no bull” is going to run yet another feel good puff piece about O-Vomit and his inaugural balls last night. No bias there!! Can CNN please turn on the news??

I hear you.

The victim was stabbed to death, and the police have someone in custody.

Check their homepage for more info, but for now it's just a short pop-up announcement.

“Resume normal activities” (avoid crime scene).

I know so many of the kids. I wonder how long it will be before the name of the victim is released?

Michael Smith in the English Department is a PC loon.

Worst ever.

Literature in his class consists of a book with a talking ape and some utopian novel where the Northwest becomes their own nation and lives wonderfully innocent lives of pure collectivist joy.

Barf.

They were. The Sports Bars are absolutely packed, and the bars are within a couple blocks of the murder scene, so the kids were quite nervous for a bit there.

Thanks for that.

I can remember when my niece was at Samford when a security guard caused a big mess and made up a story that a perp was on campus. Scared the hell out of all of us.

OMG prayers for the victim and the family. VT again!? This is an unbelievably tragic situation for everyone there to be enduring this fright another time. It would be tragic anywhere, of course, but many students there have already been frightened once and some just overcoming it. This is getting to be one horrible world anymore.

Cho’s biggest beef was with Nikki Giovanni’s pointless lectures and random grading scheme.

Sounds like the ‘usual’ in our ‘institutions of higher learning’. /s

Exactly what Smith was all about too.

It was at Donaldson Brown. I was going to be at the library next door but I had to stay with my daughter.

It could be an international thing.

Hey, can you get the collegiate times to load? It is quite bizarre that it is offline just now.

I want to post a link to Cho’s emails about the rotten Grad class situation.

~~~

Do you have a link? I don’t have it bookmarked.

It is starting to look like it happened at Au Bon Pain in the building. ABP has grad and undergrad foot traffic.
