A Glimpse of Evil

Submitted by Jay Larson, Apr 17, 2007 11:59

If it had been a tornado in VA, they would have found a way to warn the students.

It had been reported two weeks earlier that VA T had two bomb scares. And now a report of people dead and the gunman on the loose didn't inspire the police to warn or lockdown the campus is full proof that it would only be logical for someone with concealed carry in the building to access the situation and stop it.

There was one man and two handguns, one a .22, and he took out 32 people and wounded others when it only would have taken one timely bullet from someone INSIDE.
