Let's review the facts:7:15 - First shot is fired, in which no gunman is found (I am unsure of whether anyone is hurt) and the nearest educational center is 5 minutes away.8:00 - Classes start, many students don't even know about the initial shot, with some students going as far as to say that they didn't hear about the first shot until 8:30. Despite policemen being unable to find the shooter and the countless places he could have hid being within minutes of walking distance, the incident is deemed "isolated" and forgotten. 9:15 - Second shot, we know the rest. This tragedy was preventable, not preventable enough to limit all casualty, but preventable enough to limit casualty in some form.I the fifth grade, 15 minutes from my school a crazy husband stalked his ex-wife and shot her in the middle of a mall, then killed himself. My school ordered policemen as soon as word of the first shot was fired, and rounded us into the cafeteria with guard at all ends. That's precaution, precaution that turned out to be unneeded but nevertheless praiseworthy.Here, you've got a simpleton looking sheriff, making idiotic and unreasoned claims, that he and the faculty decided a gunshot, unsolved and possibly spreading, was "isolated", not even informing distant students. What the F*ck man.This is a lesson, a lesson in the stupidity of certain leaders and the lesson of what detrimental effect silence from our superiors can do. Blame the gunman first, and blame him unarguably, but put blame on the sheriff, police force, and faculty who decided not to put safety first. As my insightful mother once stated, "It's better to have something and not need it that need it and not have it."Here, her philosophy was proven. Leaders decided they didn't want to take proper action, and in the end, they needed it.Oh, how so they needed it.
This is f*cking bullsh**. Wtf is wrong with people. RIP to all the lost ones and my prayers go to the families.But another thing, after the first shot, it was 2 hours until the 2nd one.. how come the school didnt go into lockdown or something?

But if there was a lockdown, less people probably would of been killed.
Authorites were extremely pathetic here. After two people on campus were killed in their dorm room at 7 AM, the school should have went into LOCKDOWN and their should have been military/police on campus with bulletproof vests. Instead, they thought he "LEFT CAMPUS" and no one took it serious.
This is reality folks. Be thankful you don't live in a country where similar problems happen on daily basisI wonder if this kid has Facebook

Seriousely though, if he did have facebook it would get ripped apart like crazy. However apparently no one knows his name.

This is really tragic, and my thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of the victims. Pretty rough time over there at VTech... second shooting in the past year I believe.

If you think Death is your best friend you've got some issues, I don't care where you're from. And you're surprised that people are freaked out from some psycho going on a 33 person kiling rampage at university? I live in a dorm room and if at 715 some psychopath started opening up on people with a handgun I would be freaked out. I don't care if you're from the hood, the suburbs, Africa, China, The Moon, that is F*cked up.
