    Fox News is reporting 32 dead. I had forgotten that Ceph was there. I prayer for all of them, too.

    I have heard from Ceph. She is okay, but in shock, and needs time to think before she posts anything.

    Thank god Ceph is okay! I can understand her shock though, she is probably very upset, as most of the people there are.

    It really is sad!! So many young people die for no reason!!

    I'm glad to hear that Ceph is OK.

    My thoughts go out to the families and friends of the victims.

    All those poor people, this sicko has hurt hundreds of people, those that lived will be traumatized for life. I have no pity for that person at all.

    This is indeed horrible. It is absolutely senseless. Fox News is saying 32 dead, and I believe around 29 wounded with at least 2 in critical condition.

    What I don't understand is that they didn't send an email out to students until 2 hours after the first shooting. My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone involved.

    Yes, Ceph just asks that everyone pray for those who were killed and injured. I will add and their friends and families as well.

    Yes, I was in line at the Post Office when I heard people talking about this. I still haven't had a chance to turn the news on yet (will do so now). One of my co-workers took off a few days last week to visit three colleges in Virginia with her son. And that was the first thing I thought of. Can you even imagine sending your child off to college and getting a call like this. I am almost in tears now. Prayers for the family and friends of those killed, and for the recovery of those that were injured.

  12. I have a friend whose only child attends there. I am so sickened by the whole thing. Horrible, disgusting, and I wish I could say unthinkable...

    When will we as a nation figure out that handguns are usefully only for killing people????
