I've got 4-5 friends who go there. What would possess someone to kill 22+ people is beyond me.

Can you call them or something to make sure they are ok?

cav22 goes there or used to.  Hope he's okay.

incredibly sad what happened there.  we need to make our campuses safer.  While this shooter is being described as a young asian american male, it could have just as easily been a terror attack.  Our schools are just too open.

interviews on NPR said that all the kids in one classroom just put their heads down, and he walked around and dished out ten headshots before leaving.  2 more rooms like that, it's 30.

what a sad series of events.

CNN and www.cbc.ca have links to the cell phone video where one can see some phone cam footage of outside the buildings. I won't post the links, however, the sounds were terrible beyond words. This is an awful, awful day.

As much as we'd all like the campuses to be safer, it they as much as try to start checking on students who may have "suspicious" actions or just being antisocial or odd, the NAACP and ACLU will step in and say their rights are being violated.
Times are much different now and many of the hippies and rights activists need to really re access what they feel will help to reduce this violence and not just make it a rights issue.

-31 dead with the gunman.
-15 in hospital
-no identity of the gunman yet...he had no ID on him
-unsure right now if shooter was a student there
-still checking to see if bomb threats were related
-dont know why yet
-confident there was just one shooter. no one else in custody and not looking for anyone else
-still determining if 1st and 2nd shootings were related

It was reported before the shooter was a student.... I wish they could let us know the true facts.

THE GUY WHO RECORDED THE SHIT ON HIS PHONE IS ON CNN AND HE APPEARS TO BE ARAB(the guy who recorded the video, not the shooter.)

He's talking to Wolf Blitzer.
