I just tuned into CNN to see this. Does anyone yet know what happened? So far about 21 are dead...I think this is worse than Columbine. Everybody watch CNN, something is going on. I guess the top priority thing is if anyone attends Virginia Tech...

This one was worse than Columbine school shooting.

I believe its the worst shooting anywhere (in the US) since 1991, and the worst one at a university (in the US) ever.

well lets just keep the student's families in our prayers and hope that the students in critical condition make it out ok.

Saw it on the news. They finished checking the campus, I think. 30 something dead. And the shooter is dead too. But they don't know if it was police or suicide yet.

Its sad to see this happen, its sad to see People such as Jackass Thompson blame games for this, and I did not just save $15 on my car insurance.

Anyone who would do something like this is just a downright jackass. Who would do such a thing?
