I don't want to make race a big issue, but my numbers are pretty much correct according to the U.S. Census Bureau. As of 2000 Blacksburg is 84.4% white and 7.8% Asian (http://factfinder.census.gov/servlet...b=&redirect=Y). You've been here only 4 times. I go to school here everyday. I Doubt the whole Asian population is on campus at any given moment.

But onto more important matters. I'm glad that my friend is safe. He was in Norris leaving his 930 exam when he heard shots fired. I'm glad he was able to take cover in a nearby janitor's lounge. Unfortunately a member in project group knew of two people who were shot. Thank God I had a 1000 phone interview, otherwise I would have been at work on campus. It's such a tragedy that this individual took the lives of many innocent people and tarnished the reputation of Tech. The semester was almost finished. My prayers are out there for all those that were affected by the incident.

 

that was like my first thought. this has really hit home for me.

 

Nah the vid I watched was multiple shots. Sound like semi automatic pistols.

 

Very informative and I've been watching all day. Thanks Flash. Poor kid....I can't imagine what horror went through his mind. Traumatizing to say the least. He sounded sedated.

 

link? the one i saw was shot pause a few seconds, shot, pause...on and on

 

Video student confirms asian male, in his 20's , black leather jacket and maroon hat. For those who can't see it

i just talked again to my neighbor.

she was one floor above the shooter in AJ. she said that she heard shots and screams from people either being killed one by one or jumping out of windows.
