This is a horrific situation. Three shooters, two in custody, one dead. Many deaths/injuries. One of the shooters was a major. Another tragedy.

Yeah, the big newsboys are all over this one by now too. Very tragic. Horrible. Sounds like the guy just snapped.

and what is so shocking about this. it is a culture of violence that surrounds these people. seems fine and not even news worthy when violence happens to innocent people in iraq, afghanistan, pakistan at the hands of our "troops" . funny thing is this will almost assuredly get more coverage and comments from people than any steady drip of dead or wounded service men and women that come back in boxes from the conflict overseas. did anyone hear clintons comments to the students of pakistan when they questioned the random attacks by predator drones on their nations civilians ? THEM: is this not terrorism ? USA: No.
i agree the killings in texas and anywhere else they happen sucks, but what the ***** do you expect. unfortunately. i dont see much "change" ahead of us.

The guy's from Virginia Tech and it happened just down the road from Luby's Cafeteria. I mean, not to be disrespectful/irreverant, but is it the water or what?
