The events that occured today in virginia are truly horrifying and have affected me big time today. 33 innocent lives and future of our country lost their lives doing nothing but good. This shouldnt have happened and it sickens me that it did. My heart and prayers go out everyone affected and hope that we shall overcome!

Thanks
I'd like to know too... last I heard, they haven't even releaced his identity, much less what he did in his spare time. Maybe he played football... such a violent sport... or maybe he hunted? I think using real guns to shoot real living things, and then watching them die would make a much bigger impact on someone, than shooting imaginary people on a TV screen...

As a former and new resident of Virginia this is a sad day indeed.

Without all the information I'm not going to snap to any opinion on how anything was handled or why this occurred.

As of now the ONLY thing that is ticking me off and that I find wholely inappropriate is that I turned on Fox News this morning to find Geraldo Rivera doing thier morning coverage of the incident.

Most disgusting media-wh*re in existence IMO....

Oh that hurts! I can't imagine not caring, this could have happened anywhere to anybodies families and children. Yesterday was a very sad day. Sorry just made me sad and want to hold my family a little bit closer.
