Is VA Tech to blame

[MODU]

No, the administration and the police did what they could.  At the time, there was nothing to indicate that he would have gone on and assaulted the classrooms.  And in fact, I am upset with those that think "locking down" the kids in the classrooms was wrong.  What were they suppose to do?  Sent the kids back to the dorms where a possible murder was running loose?

[MODU]

Yes. They are to blame for banning guns in their campus and leaving students defenseless against that mad man.

Uhhhh . . . ok?  The last place I would want to be is in a hormonally charged closed society with a bunch of binge-drinking gun-toting college kids.  Besides, unlike a lot of schools, VA Tech has its own police force (as in real police, not rent-a-cops).  Anyway, most schools that I am aware of are gun-free zones, including your service academies.  And since students choose to attend these institutions, then the issue of gun possession isn’t a big concern on their list.

People are retarded, not "mentally challenged."

What the hell is wrong with you?

Maybe he's retarded.

No, he's "mentally challenged!"  Sheesh, get it right.
