I do not truly believe I fit into any one category.
I do believe methamphetamines are a big problem. It is up here, and there have been recent campaigns against it. I do not believe substance abuse and mental deviation are closely related, so while an addict must first seek help, someone whom cannot see the bigger picture, say a man with the mind of a child, should be persuaded into help. I do not know for sure how to help a person like this, as I was merely of a rebellious anti-authority nature, but I do know no help at all is no help at all, and that is a sad thing. -- This topic is somewhat varied and in my quest to dissolve misinformation I am using this post to bring to light a fact that is important to me, about the VT shooter. He did not play video games to anyone's knowledge, and a search warrant of his possessions found none. I don't want to drift too much in this direction so Captain Stern will tell you all about it here. Jack Thompson and even Dr. Phil had a part in spreading this rumor, and I'm sure it has reached everywhere by now.

I have a CCW and I carry. Unknown to my previous employers, I carried while at work. I do not carry to places where it's illegal to have them like court houses and federal/state buildings. Sure having one on you won't guarantee that it'll protect you, but your chances are slightly favored if you are aware and are prepared to react to whatever you may encounter. Quote:

I still think they should remove the restriction of not having firearms within 1000 feet of schools (since universities also fall into that category). Last edited by Noir; 05-03-2007 at 01:22 AM. |

unless you're relaying the information to someone else who might assist you in some way to launch something more sinister.....googling it for directions would be more than sufficient. i still think we should monitor all the people who's even considered buying microsoft flight simulator and people who flap their arms around wildly trying to mimic birds (cause you know if they strap themselves up with bombs, they may be able to flap into a building you know). lol |

Only achieving flight now Alan? I figured with the amount of hot air in some of your posts, you had to be already up there with the Hindenburgs and the Goodyears Joe Flapping furiously into the distance in a flame suit....

Facts?
It would actually be interesting to know the true facts in this case just to see how far they vary from the truth. I seriously doubt that the police confiscated a hammer. There is also mention of swords---were they really involved and is that what the police confiscated---hard to tell.
Anyway one blogger did make good point: 6 J Williamson - Apr 30, 01:56 pm We put our administrators in a “no win” situation. Take pre-emptive action and you are over-reacting and stomping on individual’s rights. Take no action and something tragic happens and you will be crucified for not taking prudent precautions. Welcome to the world we now live in. Just think of how VT was accused of NOT taking actions. Lee

This may sound harsh to some, but if some of those kids had not let themselves be overcome with panic and fear they might have stopped him before he was able to rampage.
I for one would run at a crazy guy with guns if it meant preventing a massacre. Chances are you are going to die in that situation anyways and you can either die heroically or live in regret. As many of those commenters said, I do not believe "the world we live in" has changed much recently and saying it has is nothing but a copout for extremeist action.

If the creeps that took over the plane had known of a place that I know of near here, The crater would have taken up 3 communities and taken thousands of lives! One day I was at a convienience store. A 6'6" blond guy about 240# was asking where this place was, ( with a HEAVY RUSSIAN accent), I told him that I had NEVER heard of it....... One of our 'local' MP's was the whistle blower on the iraq prison thing. a FRENCH reporter was on scene, interviewing locals. He asked " what is it with this region that causes people to act that way"? My buddy wanted to bust the puke in the mouth and tell him, " IT's IN THE WATER" I guess we have been breathing fumes from missle testing too long.

dcb Edit: Even back then, "assault rifles" were something of an issue. We each were assigned an M-14 and had to memorize the serial number, and were warned of grave consequences should the weapon go missing. When not in use, the remained under lock and key in the armory. Last edited by dcarrb; 05-04-2007 at 06:47 AM. |
