Copycats To VA Tech Massacre?

There are, sadly as expected, now a rash of threats against schools across this country. Campus threats forced lock-downs and evacuations at universities in Texas, Oklahoma and Tennessee and two public schools in Louisiana on Tuesday, a day after a Virginia Tech student’s shooting rampage killed 33 people. In Louisiana, parents picked up hundreds of […]

The Writings Of A Madman

The Smoking Gun has obtained a one act play by the clearly disturbed Cho who is now infamous for the VA Tech Massacre. More later on this subject, right now I am listening to the memorial service and would rather not pollute the mood with this person’s mad ramblings. H/T Captain Ed Morrissey

Proud Of My State, My Govnernor, My President

The VA Tech Memorial held today was an amazing and uplifting event. My hat goes off to a man who I did not hold in high esteem, until today. Tim Kaine delivered an awesome and inspiring speech today. He discussed the sense of community, the sorrow, the anger and the despair – and he offered […]

Massacre Details

Reader SallyVee points us to some extremely detailed articles on the killer and his first two victims. The first article has a lot about the morning incident and the victimes – including pictures. Looking into the eyes of the young lady killed is like looking into my 22 year daughter’s eyes. It seems Cho has […]

The Fight For Diyala Province

You can tell when al Qaeda is back on its heels in Iraq – it starts making idiotic, desperate moves. This was seen in Ramadi and other areas of Anbar when al Qaeda started killing locals – who rose up against them and allied with the US-Iraq coalition. Anbar is one of two key provinces […]

The Tech Massacre And Iraq

Everyone is praying for the victims and families and friends of those shot and killed at VA Tech, as they should. It would not hurt to send a prayer out to all our military forces in Iraq and Afghanistan and deployed elsewhere who are fighting an enemy not much different from the rampaging lunatic who […]

VA Tech Attack A Premeditated Act Or Jealous Act Of Rage?

Addendum: I have one point to make about the jealous rage angle: why leave the AJ Dorm with 900 people basically asleep in their beds and easy prey and go to Norris Hall 2 hours later? There are some reasons I can think of – guilt, fear, facing the unavoidable fate of a murderer – […]

VA Tech Shootings

Updates Added At The End: The news of shootings at VA Tech are disturbing since I and many friends and family attended that great school nestled away in the hills of southwest VA.

Drudge Copying My Headlines?

Published by under All General Discussions

Check out Drudge’s headline “Congress Gone Wild… Spring Break Taxpayer Style… ” and my headline “Congress Gone Wild On Spring Break” and ask yourself if there is not an aweful lot of coincidence there? Now, it is not hard for two people to see the same irony in this and I am definitely not making […]
