you don't get that kind of casuality rate from jim bob and his 9mm ruger in the glovebox - that sounds like an assault rifle and someone with some serious training/planning and about 4 banana clips - wonder what the wounded numbers are?

I don't agree. I think this would be pretty easy to do in this setting for someone with any sort of background with guns---even something as benign as hunting or target shooting. Think about it: crowded buildings with few exits.

Personally, I don't think it's out of the question at all that this was someone with two handguns or something.

but it seems to me the experience in these incidents has been a high wound rate/lower kill rate. It's not like Bruce Willis or Chow Yun-Fat in the real world - (usually) -

with 20 wounded and 20+ killed, he must have had a lot of students cornered off and went in there with both guns blazing -

it would explain how he could go from one shooting to the next without setting off a panic - it makes concealing the weapons easier.

at the least, I'd imagine he's had handgun training.
