VHSLhelper 571 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 waste of time...here's what I had put together at 2:00... cop pulls guy over on Washington, gets shot, radios dispatch with description & says guy is on foot headed towards McComas. Guy walks past McComas to the cage, shoots 2nd person to get another vehicle, and is gone before they set up a roadblock. They shoulda been out patrolling instead of going out to the PD and dressing in their bulletproof gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there's a tip hotline you can call and let them know your thoughts. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone likes getting advice from experts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 UVAO is a conservative. He doesn't have a shot for an Obama appointment. P.S. ur grammer iz gud tho. Not enough commas in post, IMO. But yes, being conservative, I has no shot with Obama. Thus goes my dream of being the youngest AG ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irishman 30 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 I take offense to your sarcasm. I happened to have relatives, who are VT students and was very concerned about their well being. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 I take offense to your sarcasm. I happened to have relatives, who are VT students and was very concerned about their well being. And I don't? My fiancee graduated from there in 2009, thank you. She was in Ambler-Johnston EXACTLY one floor above where the first shootings in 2007 took place. Her mother is a graduate of Virginia Tech as well. I have more friends in Blacksburg than I can count on fingers and toes. You want to imply perspective? GOTCHA. Lighten up, Francis. Just because I make a funny about a poster who has had a little history of jumping the gun on some of his statements doesn't mean that I (1) lack perspective, (2) don't care, and (3) haven't said prayers for VT, the victims, and their families.

deuceswild 15 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 (edited) I was interviewed by police today regarding the suspect. There are still some lingering details that have not been made public (obviously). That is all. Edited December 8, 2011 by deuceswild Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irishman 30 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 My grandson came out of his class and saw the paramedics working with the police officer. I just spoke to him and he is still in a state of shock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan4VT 4,557 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 My grandson came out of his class and saw the paramedics working with the police officer. I just spoke to him and he is still in a state of shock. My best friend was walking home and heard the gunshots. I didn't hear from him for hours. I was a wreck too. And even I knew UVAO was just trying to lighten the mood a little.

I plan to drive down tomorrow and visit with them. No problem, friend. Wasn't the right place for me to make a joke, and I do apologize for any offense I caused. The important thing is, though, that we do remember the VT family, which is really all our family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbgfan 856 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Wondering if this event yesterday in Radford could be related to what occurred today at Virginia Tech. Read this yesterday in the Roanoke paper. It is what came to mind immediately after hearing about the shootings today. http://articles.wdbj7.com/2011-12-07/vehicle_30488397 Life has many choices---eternity two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is what came to mind immediately after hearing about the shootings today. http://articles.wdbj7.com/2011-12-07/vehicle_30488397 Life has many choices---eternity two I'd say yes. They've identified the gunman as a Radford student who stole an SUV at gunpoint to drive to VT. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/crime/virginia-tech-gunman-identified-police-article-1.989472 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasDenton 79 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 And now they are saying that the gunman also attended Uva-Wise for a year before going to Radford and even served in the SGA at Wise. http://www2.tricities.com/news/2011/dec/10/alleged-virginia-tech-shooter-has-apparent-ties-wi-ar-1533841/?referer=http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Ftricities.com%2Far%2F1533841%2F&h=1AQEFkxV9&shorturl=http://bit.ly/w1AIr7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every university has it's share of students who are messed up in the head. VT has had its, UVA has had its, Radford has had its. I just don't know if any positives accomplished by mentioning other schools in this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
