A moment of LMAO in an otherwise depressing thread.

I know there are a few 2p2ers from VaTech, so we can hope they're alright.

Some are posting in BBV4L, giving updates and the emails they've been getting from admins. It's disgusting that there was a shooting at 715am and the school wasn't closed then. 2 hours later, more shootings. Classes don't become cancelled until after 10am. That's disgusting and ridiculous.

I don't know enough about the situation to blame the administration, and I'm not sure how much that would have helped anyway. If people hadn't been at the engineering building, who's to say what would have happened next?

It's a sad situation, and worth learning from to handle better in the future, but I don't think that scapegoats and bearers of blame need to be found just yet.

and yeah, the whole thing is sick, but it is also equally sick to think of all the people in the media with huge raging hardons that this has taken place. they are so happy and thrive off death and destruction.

Got to agree here. This will replace far too many news stories that might require actual thinking and investigation. It will be dirt cheap to put on the air because it will only require talking heads, and every spokesmodel anchor will get to pile up points for humanizing the story by asking the parents of dead people how they feel and pretending to particularly care. This is going to be yet another obscene, ghoulish feast for the newsmen, this time on the corpses of those kids.

Sure, it's newsworthy, but that's not necessarily how news is done these days and how it will be covered. And profitably prolonged.

Brittney is going to have to start flashing a lot of pubic to get back on the air again. Well, she already did that, so I guess the last step is anal. Prepare to see celebrity buttholes in the latest attempt to commandeer America's attention span.

Dont forget next year's presidential candidates. I bet John Edwards is trying to find out if any of the victims had cancer as we speak.

I'm sure rifles will be found guilty on the one hand, and Hillary Clinton on the other.

I don't care how good a poker player you are. I still cannot fathom how you haven't been banned.
