  • funny to me how police always carry big stupid military style rifles and the SWAT team plays dress up with their little tactical gear after the shooting is over,like thats supposed to make people feel better and safer lol.

  • the shooters in hell now bet he regrets doing this

  • fuckers like him dont know what regret is man

  • It is really weird kid if you say Hillary 08' This is youtube. Brodcast yourself!!! Videos onl-e Nothin Else

  • you wont have to warn your brothers and sisters because they already know whats going on..link up with your true brothers and sisters..these people are people of the world they believe in the system they ARE NOT your brothers and sisters...pfg4life

  • jcdinform most people wont believe until its too late..this is all prophetic..save yourself these people are like sheep they truly believe in their government they have no idea about the tremendous power of greed when its coupled with the dissillusion of grandeur...pfg4life

  • it seems many americans have mental issues,these events occur so regulary they dont make world news headlines anymore

  • A bit of a coincidence, the shooting happening on "Valentine's Day"

  • I get it now, you're doing this for fun, to see what kid of reaction you'd get. You should choose a video with less kickback though, people are seriously traumatised by this. They're sad, angry and don't want to listen to explanations. all they know is that a loved one has died. try an earlier event, so they can think level headedly about it. that is, if you really are serious...

  • jcdinform:

    why such a senseless waste of life? couldn't the CIA just set off a bomb where they know no students would be? that wold scare people, and no one would have to die! Also, if the CIA has this kind of time and resources, couldn't they just fake them? Who knows, maybe the country is against you, but governments don't kill people without at least a flimsy pretext. it could have been simpler, more efiicient and no one needed to die. Question authority, but only with solid evidence.

  • Mike and Andy seem to be the same person and it seems as though this guy or girl decided to post those comments just to provoke people.

    but "andy" and "mike", I hope you got the attention you wanted.

  • And I guess evidence for your conviction would be too much to ask for?

    Keep your paranoia out of the tragedy that all us involved went through.

  • Mike and Andy, you both should be ashamed of yourselves...only an ignorant asshole could make such a comment. I bet you wouldn't have the same opinion if this happened to your town. Nobody deserves to have their life taken from them...nobody should be entitled to making the decision of when it is time for someone to live or die. The shooter was very sick and obviously you have the same state of mind.

  • Terrible, ignore those idiots like mike and andy.. shame on you kids and be careful what you say. What goes around comes around.

  • hm? i wonder why they decide to shoot up schools....because some people are ass holes and deserve to be shot.

  • all those bitches deserved to die hahahahaha rot in hell stupid bitches

  • YOU!

    Does anybody else notice all these shooters are on Psychological drugs for depression?

    BAN THE DRUGS.

    Bush signed act to screen all kids for "mental illness" and "treat" kids at taxpayers expense. Pharmacological companies make a KILLING, pun. AM I THE ONLY ONE BESIDES RON PAUL WHO SEES THIS? Can you say time bombs?

  • maybe it was the depression that drove them to commit this act, and the drugs simply didn't work. This is still a problem, but it's a lot simpler and doesn't necessarily equal conspiracy.

  • Is Funny back in those crazy drug days of the 1960s 1970s even 1980s shit like this did not happen but hey you know this Millennium Society of high morality is right

  • UO3: how is this decade high morality? In the 'crazy drug days' as you call them, pushers used to sell marijuana. but since the government set up that "zero tolerance" policy on drugs, the punishment for dealing cocaine or heroin is the same for peddling grass, so of course the pushers go for the higher profits and more damaging drugs.

    this decade is not high morality. look at the internet. all you have to do is click "yes, I am 18". it's not necessarily drugs that do this.

  • OK, if all the students had been armed, someone MIGHT have 'dropped' the guy before he could kill 5. But the number of shootings on campuses would increase tenfold, at least. Minor arguments would escalate in to fatal shootings. Is that what you want at college? Let's not recreate the wild west in the 21st century.

  • Black people ain't crazy, we might do stupid shit but we ain't crazy. You know this shooting was a white guy. Any guy crazy ass shit, some shooting, some dude killing and raping his kids then setting fire to himself, yep you know it's a white guy.

  • who cares.

  • nelsoneas, in 2006 there was a school shooting in Canada.

  • Yeah, there have been several school shootings in Canada, going back to the 70s. The most killed was in 1989, when 14 women were murdered at a Montreal university.

    So, it does happen in other countries ...recently in Finland, in Scotland, where the guy killed all those first-graders, that Russia school hostage crisis...there have been a number outside the USA. The difference is, the USA's shootings are disproportionately higher than other countries. Which points to a social/cultural cause.

  • All of these school shooters were on meds when they snapped. Look it up.

    Don't ban guns; ban anti-depressants.

    You want a real solution to your depression problem?

    Here it is:

    Youtube: "Raw for 30 Days - Trailer"

    watch?v=ynXGA6fCEgU

    If you start eating real food, and get sunlight and exercise, you won't be depressed.

  • omg americans sound so hot, hahahaha, i cant wait till i go up there (from an aussie) hahaha

  • I remember there was a saying that went "be nice to nerds, because later they might be your boss" ... well ..that should change to "be nice to nerds, or else." I've noticed that all these campus killers are always outcasts. They are also normally NOT good looking. Am I the only one that sees a pattern here? Why doesn't this happen in less agressive societies, such as Canada or Switzerland, or even latinamerica. Don't know!

  • Guns shouldn't be banned, but there should be "gun-free" zones like colleges. However, I think a campus should only be able to ban guns as long as they can enforce it or have active armed security officers. If a campus checks everyone who comes in then there's no reason to have a gun. However, guns do prevent and help crime, so the issue needs to be handled carefully. Also, to those that say that colleges would be better off without armed guards, what? So we should get rid of the police then?

  • He1243u76d7- I will guarantee you that if responsible citizens on that campus legally owned and carried a gun (2nd Amendment!) that that crazy fuck would'nt have gotten off more than two shots before someone wasted him! Idiot, read the Constitution!

  • imright: The problem is, people don't even understand what a RIGHT is. I have the RIGHT to breath because I am a human being!! No one gave me that right! No one has the right to take it away! Why haven't people banned coats?? I have a RIGHT to wear a coat to protect myself from the cold. I have the SAME RIGHT and a duty to protect myself and others against ALL enemies.

    The "shooter" would NOT have been able to kill ANYONE if everyone in the room defended their RIGHT to life and all had guns??

  • If you don't take the responsibility and DUTY of defend your own life... WHO WILL???? The cops?? The cops will show up an hour later only to carry away your dead body.

    "Those that give up essential liberty to gain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety, and shall have neither." Benjamin Franklin

  • 1NWOZMD-You would be quicker on the draw than I, dittos! :-)

  • If everyone in the room had guns, no one would know whether he was really going to kill all those people, because someone else would have killed him. So it would seem like he was hust a regular kid who got shot for no reason by the guy who thought he was defending himself. It just gets complicated, and death s complicated enough.

  • So your the one screaming "hes got a gun" every time you see a cop! lol

  • A complete ban on guns in a country as big as the US is totally impractical, unfeasible and would fail to carry out its purpose. Guns will always find their way in if the criminals are determined enough. US isn't small. It is prohibitively expensive for the police to search every house and everyone for weapons.

    Ideally a total gun ban works, but realistically it won't. U ppl who advocate a ban on guns need a reality check.

  • And let these incidents keep continuing as long as guns aren't banned in this stupid country.

  • that;s why GUNS MUST BE BANNED IN THE FIRST PLACE

  • This is why guns need to not be banned on college campuses. I can bring my concealed handgun to the movies, I can bring it to the grocery store, but I can't bring it to class.

  • I mean guns MUST be banned EVERYWHERE... so gun store will be eliminated. ppl say guns are for protection. it's just an excuse. I dont think protection just can be achieved by having gun.

    what will you feel if the gunner shot your parents, brother, sister, or friends??? who are u gonna blame?

  • teddydgx- Nobody would have died if I were there! I'd have dropped him before he dropped himself! Are you a female or just wear panties to 'feel' like one?

  • what an ignorant person

  • I kind of agree... In an ideal society (in my book) there would be no guns, but we could stil use swords to defend ourselves. You would have to train and practise immensly to kill that many people before getting killed. Guns took the honour and skill out of defending oneself, and now murder is just a trigger pull away. unfortunately this isn't an ideal society, and people wil always choose the laziest way to kill.

  • what the fuck is wrong with you

  • You might as well just fight with your own fists.

  • Oh, I agree in that case. Either ban them everywhere, or allow them everywhere but with licenses. You can't do this junk where you can bring them some places and not others. That's how tragedies like this happen.

  • heh... banning them everywhere... they tried that with alcohol in the 20's, remember? nice idea, though...

  • at least, Government should try

  • I understand how you feel, but if the government were to ban guns, it would make things a lot worse. it would pave the way for gun-runners, and the mafia would gain control again. notonly would guns still be around, but they'd only be owned by criminals. perhaps a stricter licencing system?

  • @teddydgx Guns will still be bought. if banned or not. like drugs, Its just as easy

  • Ever notice how every mass shooting in the history of the United States like this has happened in a "Gun Free Zone". You shouldn't really be suprised when somebody opens fire in an area where citizens are NOT allowed to defend themselves.

  • I'm not suprised. Don't say we could have never seen this coming, or there was nothingwe could do.

    We both know he didn't get to that point by himself.

    There's plenty we could do, but instead we dive into our ignorance and go to our exact same disposition towards people.

    No one changes. I felt sorry for the VT shooter, because he went through torment at that school, until the fuse everyone lit came to an end. Shut the fuck up if you say there was nothing we could do.

  • other people may sometimes be the problem but its not the solution unless you know who your killing

  • Show your love for the families of the NIU shooting by leaving a comment for them on the video at my channel.

    Together we can help them heal.

  • I enjoy the socialist/progressive reasoning. Spoons make you fat, cars cause speeding and guns kill people. However, gun control/prohibition works wherever its tried. Just ask the monks of Myanmar who stood up for democracy. And got shot for their temerity.

  • Let me guess...it was a "gun free zone". ALL of these mass killings by a mad man over the last decade have happened in a "gun free zone" Now why do you suppose that is?

  • If you're another guy who's suggesting "Oh if they all had guns this wouldn't happen" please shut up.

  • If ONE person had a gun he at the very least would not have had time to reload and continue killing people. Stop being a liberal douche' and giving criminals the right to kill unarmed innocents because of your gay gun control.

  • Xraid32, Jane you ignorant slut....It is arrogant, illogical, and unreasoned positions like yours that allow killings like this. And yes I would have shot that f%^ker right in the head (if assholes like you would not have taken or right to self protection away), before he killed more kids. Sad part is this will happen again. And you will still be spouting the same line of crap...so sad.

  • Guns create violence. The shooter began to take interest in guns only recently. There have been countless psychological experiments that show that decisions are more aggressive just at the mere sight of a gun. You're the one that's sad. No one should have the right to have a gun unless they're law enforcement.

  • The problem was that he was able to get a gun in the first place. He had a license for it as well.

  • I find they dont want to solve the problem just give ppl drugs to suppress it. Its alittle difficult to solve when the so called problem solvers only have book knowledge and statistics and data. They also need the experience of being psychotic. Thats what May happen if you force these individuals into society. Alot of not most psychotic ppl arent violent, unless they have aggression before or just lost hope or faith of God. Personally I dont take them drugs, but i'm not forced out in society yet

  • The drugs aren't used to suppress whatever the underlying issue is. The drugs are used as a first step. A lot of people who are depressed/psychotic, can't think straight, can't function in the world, can't keep themsleves clean....the drugs help alleviate the depression, to the point where the person can function again. Then, he/she can tackle underlying issues. Medication is an important, first step.

    This idea that all psychotic people are violent, is simply not true. It's not. That's a myth.

  • People also forget about plain STRESS. Its an amazingly destructive force when left unchecked. Modern culture is creating new disease specifically from the stress of our lifestyle! Heart disease, cancer, all unheard of until modern culture gripped round our necks.

    Not saying culture is bad, but we don't handle the stress so well, then we wonder why people go insane. Every generation has more duties and higher goals expected of them. Its no wonder kids get more and more screwed up.

  • No wonder in the 1960s and 70s people did not kill people  like they do today i guess the drugs and good music kept most people contents

  • I don't know, music from the 60's and 70's makes me want to shoot myself every time I hear it.

  • Stop or my mom will shoot!

  • Ever notice how all these people are on "prescribed" drugs, but most times have recently gone off them.

    Gee, could there be a connection?

    WAKE UP!!!! Do some Research on the side effects of this poison being forced on the children of this country at younger and younger ages. Then we all wonder why they become psychotic and go on killing sprees.

  • You've got things backward, dude.

    People become psychotic/depressed first, they are prescribed medication, and the meds help. When the person goes off the meds on his/her own, that's when trouble starts. There is a right way to go off medication, and a wrong way.

    I bet we're gonna find out this guy went off the drugs on his own, and abruptly.

  • It starts with the ADD and ADHD drugs when they are in elementary school. By the time they are teenagers they have depression and other emotional issues because they have been drugged up 1/2 their life. As I said, do some research into the issue.

  • I don't need to do research. I work with the mentally ill for a living.

    ADD/ADHD causes depression and mental illness?? Depression is caused by life events & situations. A lot of people, as well, are genetically wired to be depressed. It has nothing to do with ADD/ADHD.

    To the psychotropic drug haters, I always say this -- take away a severly depressed / psychotic/schizophrenic's medication, then see what happens. It ain't pretty.

  • makemerichonline....your a fucking dick!

    how can you be such an ass hole when a tragedy like this happened?!

    i can gaurentee that if someone you love were in that auditorium, you wouldnt be too happy right now you fucking asshole

  • Honestly why would you care? WHO GIVES A SHIT? Fucking pussies keep crying about this stupid shit. OVER REACT ALWAYS!

  • Friday, Feb 15 2008. I heard in the news how several schools have suffered shootings this week, with yesterday's shooting imparticular at Northern Illinois University being the most recent as of this date. I believe we need the Fear of The Lord more than ever in this country.

  • Thats funny the more secular countries don't seem to be having this problem.

  • whatout about all the crazy mother fuckers straping bombs to themselves and killing hundreds of people

  • I suppose you missed the part where I said "secular."

  • What, secular countries like the Middle Eastern countries that kill all that don't agree with 'their' religious beliefs? Where do you live, in Satan's ass? Sounds like you could have used some good direction growing up!

  • Imright, I would suggest looking up the "secular" in the dictionary, you are making a fool of yourself.

  • Huck- It means governing without being bound by religion, seperation of church and state!! Just what countries are you talking about?

  • And I realize I type o'd separate!

  • Well pretty much all of western Europe, Australia, and Canada. I'm not saying that those nations don't have violent crime or that some of them haven't had similiar events, they just have them in lower numbers. I'm not at all saying religion is the causation but it is annoying when others cite "drifting from God" as a reason for moral decline. No evidence suggests such a thing. I do realize, that many of the areas/countries aren't technolically secular but I am referencing to the populace.

  • HuckabeenNJ- Do you know the meaning of 'fecitious'?

  • No, "fecitious" isn't a word ;).

  • All of these school shooters were on meds when they snapped. Look it up.

    Don't ban guns; ban antidepressants.

  • NOT TRUE.

    This shooter had gone OFF his medication when his behavior became erratic.

    He was an exemplary kid while medicated.

  • The similarities between American fascism and particularly the National Socialist precedent, both historical and theoretical, are remarkable. Fascism is home, it is here to stay, and it better be countered with all the intellectual resources at our disposal.

  • Shoot back or stop complaining!!!

  • Gun free zones are open fields for wierdos! Thanks liberals! Deranged killers applaud you!

  • Welbrurin + Prozac = phycokiller because it puts depressed people into a sociopathic dream state that seperat themselves from reality.

    I blame the drug companies. They know exactly what is going on!! They know their products kill people but its way too profitable for them to stop.

  • i am not sure, i stoped taking my meds,i just didint like them, and the more i found out about them the less i liked them, now i believe life stile change is the best way.the u.s.a. is not a happy place to live, but ofcourse to i believe every thing RON PAUL FROM TEXES SAYS. is the u.s. was really free and people were not so stressed out they would be less likely to kill each other, theres so much compatition its like a race to get to the top and if you get in my way all step on you.

  • To Legally own guns in IL FOID card 90 day waiting period. Name and gun serial# Registration in database $800 Glock $800 Glock $500 shotgun $250 taxes = $2350 +3 day waiting period. Illegally Glock $50 Glock $50 Shotgun $50 No taxes, waiting period or registration! Handshake You do the math.
  • 50 bucks? I think you might be exagerrating. Oh, don't forget ammo!

  • All of these school shooters were on meds when they snapped. Look it up.

    Don't ban guns; ban anti-depressants.

    "Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's teeth and keyston under Independence." George Washington

    If someone start shooting at you...

    SHOOT BACK!! Or do nothing and wait until all your friends are DEAD???

  • China established gun control in 1935. From 1948 to 1952, 20 MILLION

    political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up

    and exterminated

    IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT???????????

  • your right my friend the time is comimg near,they can laugh at us now but its coming,

  • Is murdering indiscriminately just because you're an ugly loner loser also in the American Constitution...? o_0

    >_>

  • lol no but it makes you wonder if there really is God....or maybe this proves it. LOL

  • What does this have to do with God? A nut wants to kill people, he has a gun(s), so he goes where others are not allowed to have guns. HELLO! You libs seeing any connection yet? Any campus that welcomes concealed weapons will be the safest on earth.

  • This proves there is a god? WTF?

  • i think its scary how i live by NIU

  • What is wrong with this world? I don't understand it. Killing other people just because you're miserable? Things have gone too far.

  • maybe but what if this is how a higher power enacts revenge

  • If there is a "higher power" do you really think he/she/it would be as petty as to waste time exacting "revenge" for the sake of some ugly loner loser?... or any human for that matter?

    Dont u think someone/something as omniscient/omnipotent as which u speak of would have something better to do than play piddle & crap games with insects on some insignificant planet somewhere in a universe containing innumerable similar such planets?

    What make us so special?

    Face it bud, god is a crock!

    >_>

  • I agree. If there is a "god" up there he`s a prick.....

  • I'm by no means a proponent of violence, but rage is a natural expression when their are zero other outlets. Couple that with the fact that in American society you are a loser until proven otherwise, a 60 second youtube video goes along way for glorifying most closet cases who have nothing going for them.

  • hope u feel better

  • wat tha fuk is wrong wit u

  • It's interesting how the bulk of the people learned of a dire life or death 911 situation through being "texted". Kids these days... imagine the text: "u ok? some1 shooting people gl and dont die gg".

  • girl at the end with all the make up: "it sucked" haha classy.

  • looks like he wanted revenge of people that broke his heart or people who dated the shooter's Girlfriend that broke his heart since he killed on Valentines day..

  • Probably not. He planned it far in advance.

  • It is an epidemic massacre,occurs in malls,

    schools,and public.A national commitee must investigate this issue of mass murders hence a proper management could be put.

  • I just got an E-mail for my school, UofI, and I guess that the shooter was a current UofI student. This is horrible on many levels.

  • All of these school shooters were on prozac when they snapped. Look it up.

    Don't ban guns. Ban anti-depressants.

  • dude, four kids just got killed. youre a sick bastard if youre spamming on this.

  • this is scary because i live 30 minutes away from here and my school was actually re scheduling are spirit week and were changing all the days next week wearing Red White And Black theyre school colors and today we had an assembly to honor the people who died and to talk about our school security

  • so what.

  • Shame on American parents, get a grip on your children.

  • he was a graduate student, not a child.

  • he was 28.

  • don't sterotype...not all of us "American parents" have murderers for children.

  • I'm sorry but whatever the age of the shooter might be, it is all in a build up of 'how these children are raised'.

    Not only do I blame the parents for having little or no knowledge of their childrens actions, but I also blame the Govt./States for not doing enough on putting limitations on Gun Laws, generally speaking.

  • It is almost a routine in USA that a shooting breaks out at an educational institute. Maybe it's time they protect the schools and colleges by taking appropriate security measures.

  • Brazil murder rate similar to war zone, data shows September 25, 2006 BRASILIA, Brazil (Reuters) - More than 150 Brazilians were murdered each day last year on average, putting Brazil on a par with some war zones in terms of its homicide rate, the Justice Ministry said on Monday. Some 55,000 Brazilians died of homicide in 2005 -- a few thousand more civilians than in three years of war in Iraq, according to leading estimates.

  • Why is this a reply to my message?

    What has murder rates in another country got anything to do with 'Shooting crisis' United States faces?

  • I think "zupf's" point, as insensitive as it may sound is the United States has a low murder rare by most standards and therefore we're a role model for how the rest of the world should be, because a few deaths is really just a drop in the bucket compared to some other countries.

  • "A role model for how the rest of the world should be" ???? You must be joking.

    The USA has one of the highest, if not THE highest, murder rates in the developed world. Comparing any country to the Third World, Middle East and other trouble spots, of course it's gonna be lower. But, compared to the rest of the developed world, the USA's murder rate is near the top.

    That's the first time I've ever heard an American say that-that they are role models for the rest of the world....jeez.

  • at 0:12 the cops like "naw ya gotta rewrap this police tape here"

  • Now I don't wanna go to school.

  • Just go armed.

    Self-Defense is the only justifyable reason to kill. Too bad the people who run that school didn't understand that. I really hope the school is sued over this stupidity. If you disarm the people on your property you'd damn sure better protect them.

  • thats a very bad idea. give every one guns and knives, it will reduce the deaths cause by crazy students. right. frankly, i think all of this is because of VT. people see that, they say, "yes, it can be done, i always that that wasnt the answer and it would never work, but i can stop all this misery and take the people responsible with me", and they do it, then the same thing happens.

  • say cheese and die!

  • when did this happen?

  • Why did someone ding you for asking when this happened?

  • Seriously what the fuck? Why did I get dinged for asking why he got dinged that's fucking bullshit.

  • Nut cases everywere.

  • except its like way worse in other countrys

  • rage-murders in the school/workplace seem to be an american phenomonen. the uniqueness of these sort of random shootings by lone individuals is what sets it apart from common street violence in places like brazil, for instance.
