Four (or five?) local hospitals have 18 patients admitted. Six are listed as critical, rest are stable. Down from 28 originally admitted.

They must be sweating bullets over at State (Department) if this guy came in on a visa.

Do you honestly believe that anyone in the federal government gives a damn about the people at this point?

This story is getting stranger by the minute. Maybe he had a shotgun or something to blow his head off?? The poor police officers and families.

Pray for W and Va Tech

My first question is why this professor and class/building? What are they working on at this building other than general engineering studies? Any military work going on?

There is no such thing as stupid questions, only stupid people with questions.

well... and occasionally, people with stupid answers.

I believe that they care about their own asses and careers.

"I think it’s safe to say you can’t make yourself unrecognizable with one self inflicted hand gun shot."

Yeah, you would have probably need a shotgun to do that. There's got to be something key here that we're not being told. This is really fishy...

Where did you get your facts? A map of the campus displaying the buildings which just shown on tv. It appeared there may have been 30-40 buildings. When the shooting began where were the cops? Who was storming the building? Waiting for instructions and back up?

I am curious about the doors being chained on the Norris building from the inside.

How many doors? Does this fact suggest there was help? That is a big building.

Chaining doors demonstrates an organized thought process; if not preparation and premeditation.

I am beginning to fear separate but related/planned crimes.

Plenty here to investigate. I hope the authorities get organized and get someone in front of the microphone that can present a coherent message.
