It's on other networks too. Just that for some odd reason Fox News was the one with the photo of the victim. I suppose since she's foreign, it's alright to just put it up there. :roll:
It happened in January, so I was away at NCO school so I didn't get the news at the time.
But I think with events like this, it's time VA Tech allowed guns on campus.
Seriously. Obviously intervening in a fight armed with nothing but hot soup against a knife wielding maniac is not going to work out very well but imagine just one of those seven witnesses had a gun and the will to use the damn thing. The female student, though no doubt wounded may have had a chance to be saved.
You know, the sort of effort it takes for a Chinese student to be able to get the money and the resources to make it to the US to study? Seriously... what a goddamned shame.
I don't think guns on campus would have deterred this guy from pulling the knife out but a bullet could have been buried in his back just in time. As to whether or not he'd be armed with a gun or not, well, the guy was willing to decapitate someone in plain sight of people. I don't think a gun ban would have stopped him from bringing one if that's what he intended.
p.s. shouldn't there be a series of mass firings at the school? Starting with the boss?
