lack a good value system and lack of religion, culture..leading to lack of purpose is what leads to frustration and purposeless acts like this.. None of those young victims deserved anything like this......

Unless US looks at all its amendments especially the first and second... all that is there is to wait and watch who gets into the next maniacal shooting...just hoping its not you or someone you know....someone lurking there with pent up feelings of anger, frustration and hatred...

I am just horrified with this act! I still keep on wondering what was going through his head?? why? why? why? So many innocent students died for no reason! Why do people do such things? Hope there families are okay...how do you deal with such a thing? One minute your kid is going to school, next minute they are not even in this world..I was just too shook up with that...what makes me mad though is that the authorities knew about the 2 people being shot 2 hours ago...so why not alert the whole school...lock students in dorms and classses...their careless behavior lost about 30 lifes...30 LIFES, just becasue they didn't email earlier?? how could authorities be so stupid?? It just makes me wonder if I am safe at my school.
on the other hand, it didnt' stop my mother from calling me and telling me "I told you so", that I should be always careful.. but what baffles me is that if there was a way to avoid this..these kids didn't even know what was coming for them...how do you insure safety in such times?? really makes you question life??
Sorry didn't answer any questions..I am still baffled by this tragedy...I don't know how to react to it...
Peace to all the families!

Im still not getting over this incident 😭

I was seeing news Channel ... That part of Virginia has got very traditionalist type of Americans having strong Family value system just like asians:[some professor stated this on TV during the coverage]

So this totally ends the debate of culture.. Culture may not be able to justify or be used as a reason for such an act. Things like these do happen in every part of the world. What would people call a Priest who sexually, physically and mentally abused children in his area 🤢 [Im not making this up, its a real life story!]

eggy you are doing the wrong comparison.. serial killers and mass muderers are not the same....wasn't that guy a serial killer.... like jack the ripper...

How can the VTec incident be past karma?😕....I dont think any of those 32 innocents deserved anything even close....

Well Raman Raghvan was serial killer and I very vividly remember that time. This CHO character did one time mascacre so he does not fit into serial killer profile although he killed 32 people 😡. May be RR should be compared to Richar Ramirez a killer in LA during 1984-85 😕 or with Jeffrey Dahmer: 😡

I remember in 96 in LA- Valley area there was one guy who went out on rampage and started shooting on street. It was telecasted live. It was so scary. I remember it was on friday at noon time.
