  • I think people who want gun control are getting these kids on drugs, getting ideas into their heads and then set them loose so they can go and do a school killing, then they can claim they were right and keep pressuring fro gun control.

  • im scared shitless to go to school after all this theres so many disturbed kids at my school

  • Well, I was sitting in Cole Hall waiting for class one day when I was day dreaming about someone going postal at NIU. The next day Kazmierczak did in the very lecture hall I was just day dreaming in. Shit my nightmares are coming true.

  • @1watchdog what happened at new orleans??

  • Let me guess they can't carry guns in illinois right? Well thats GUN CONTROL AT WORK FOR YOU! All it does is get people killed and let criminals have free for alls like this one.They no that people are unarmed they have no fears of retaliation. It's A SHAME! just like VA.TECH! Criminals don't follow gun laws when are people going to realize this!Its getting people KILLED! By taking away there RIGHT to protect themselves! SO KEEP VOTING FOR GUN CONTROL!! And you'll keep seeing news like this!

  • How many little bitches of men do you know that sucker punch and kick dudes in the balls.

    Im not giving that pussy a gun

  • Out of 10 persons I only see one person who cares and wants this country to become better.

  • Let me guess...In your opinion...you? Let me get this right, since I support firearm ownership, and continue to point out how totally inept gun control of any kind is, as well as offering an actual, probable solution, I suddenly don't want to see the world any better?

    Quite a desperate assumption.

    Try this...instead of totally relying on the state to show up on time with the body bags, why not give the possible victim the ability to defend themselves?

    License to conceal and carry.

  • its just good population control, theres to many americans i hope theres more like this notice it rarely happens anywhere else, its built into an americans dna to kill other life so im glad when stuff like this happens and i bet within the next year there will be anouther one

  • You're a sick idiot. You hope there are more like this? Go to hell.

  • it really is the best form of population control, same with the crimes and all that mothernature puts pshycos in our mist to keep everything under control, in 1000 years think of all the people that would have been murdered the 100s of thousands of extra people i want my world small

  • you want your world small ? haha... good one :)

  • You know what else, I read a post from someone somewhere...don't remember who, but I never commented on it.

    If we are going to regulate, or re-evaluate anything...I agree! Why not anti-depressants?

  • Gun confiscation only serves to arm the criminals we wish to protect ourselves from, because THEY WILL NOT ABIDE BY THE LAW.

    Why not allow professors, and students to seek professional training? Why not allow them to conceal and carry?

  • To everyone around the area, or even if your not, the NIU memorial will be held Sunday the 24th from around 5-7 doors open at 6. Show some support and stop by, and guess who will be there? thats right Westboro Baptist Church, protesting saying thank god for the shooter, lets out number them so the friends and family wont even have to see those ignorant people. In DeKalb IL, NIU campus

  • Why does this crap keep happening?

    I'm with her: watch?v=ct64jMb9jD8&feature=re­lated

  • What is the deal with this brainwashed vision of society, in which their are no guns, and the state makes every decision for everyone?

    Look to all you gun grabbers...last year, my dad was opening his shop here in Texas, when he caught 3 people stealing copper coils, and other metals. He showed them he had a gun, and told them not to move. When the sherrif's department arrived, it was discovered they had long rapsheets and outstanding warrants.

    In your utopian society...he's murdered.

  • I think responsible gun owners who would fire on someone only if their life/property was under threat get a bad rep. from dumba** gun owners like drug dealers, gang members, racist organizations like the klan or the black panthers, etc...

    Few people realize that guns are really required to prevent a coup in the nation or stop it from turning into a communist police state overnight on a grand scale of things. People just see crime done with guns and jump to the conclusion that gun = criminal.

  • I understand you concern. Your dad needs far shooting pepper spray. Large dogs help. Our dogs have saved our lives many, many times. There are gun alternatives. Plus, others will not have guns, either. We can not allow crazy people like the college shooters to get a hold of guns any longer.

  • Oh so let me get this right...the criminals, whether they be thieves or murderers are just supposed to play along? The cartels don't. Mafia don't. Street gangs don't. Drug dealers don't. Meth heads, who are the most irrational of all don't. While time and time again, Conceal and Carry laws continue to prove themselves an effective deturrant to ALL THESE.

    A gun free U.S. ... why not just lay out a welcome mat to the cartel's, criminals, terrorists, and armies of the world who hate us!?

  • Understand this. By the time I was 3 years old, I knew how to shoot a bolt action .22. By the time I was 8, I had already shot an AR-15, and an SKS. By the time I was 10 I was competeing in Olympic match style .22. For my 18th birthday, I bought a mini-14. My 21st, a Sig P220 .45 pistol, and some weekend when I am not working I plan on completing my CHL training.

    I was taught a firearm is ALWAYS loaded, even when its not. I have never once thought of killing anyone.

  • Yet because some nut job went off the deep end, and no one was around to stop him, people like you wish to make people like me suffer, by having my constitutional rights discarded.

    I'm sorry, Im not going to be passive about this anymore.

    People like you are why I will NEVER vote democrat. Regardless of the fact that I beleive in gay rights, and other liberal issues.

    People like you are the reason why I give money to the GOA, and the NRA.

    I will never give up my arms.

  • I talked to you in a respectful manner. You talk to me as if I was a criminal. I don't deserve this.

    I have never told you what to do. I just stated my view on things.

    I am just trying to communicate with others about these so important issues because I feel very srongly about it. I see the danger in guns and I see the danger in lack of governmental regulations.

  • 1. What everyone has got to do is stop talking about how gun laws will help or how gun laws won't help based on their gut feelings. There are other countries out there with every variety of gun law - let's see what the data says.

  • 2. The reason for the right to bear arms is not to simply keep us even with the criminals - it's to be able to rise up and form a militia if we ever have to defend ourselves from an over-powerful government. Remember the battle of 1776 - We had to wrestle control of this country and so many people have already forgotten? That's the way it is - and I don't blame them. The right to bear arms is equivocal to the right to keep the government in check.

  • Couldn't have said it better.

  • You "keep the government in check". Go for it. The "government" consists currently of the people chosen by George W. Bush, who had been voted for twice. Probably by you as well.

  • Well, I'm sorry. But, look what your ideas about guns say. According to you, law abiding gun owners, who for the most part are salt of the earth people, would ACTUALLY BE criminals.

    You understand my argument, why I feel passionate to the point of anger?

    Look I am as sick of school shootings as you are, these people make ME look bad. But gun legislation of any kind, whether it be tracing of arms, licensing, or even confiscation...only serves to hurt those who have done nothing.

  • @txnwinterbride what? I wish that made sense... who's murdered? are we talking literally or philosophically?

  • Wow, nicolato, you're a real brainiac there pal. Let's just turn the country into the USSR. That's the ticket.

  • Priority: Outlaw guns. Then establish universal health care to relieve people of this terrible stress of losing their homes and money to hospitals, then support the middle class and the low income families. Then shooting will become less.

  • Outlaw guns? Sure! Lets just become Mexico where the criminal elements control everything, and the police are so corrupt they could care less.

    Guns are absolutly illegal in Mexico. Infact for all you gun grabbers out there, Mexico has TOUGHER gun laws than even Europe. Theres a great example of a "safe" "gun free" society.

    Again... if we know gun legislation DOES NOT WORK... why not professionally train students and professors to conceal and carry?

  • Mexico's poor economy has nothing to do with gun control. Japan has gun control. Japan is one of the safest counties in the world to be in. They have less violence than in almost any other country in the world. They have a very good economy. They have almost no natural resources.

  • Mexico has many natural resources like oil, gold, and lumber. The reason why their economy is bad is lack of education and educated people. A country's economy is usually directly proportional to the intelligence in the country. The reason why there are guns in Mexico is because people smuggle them in from the USA where they are bought on the streets because of lack of US gun control.

  • So they smuggle full auto Type 56 AK-47's from here to Mexico? What about the illicit arms trade through Cuba? China? The cartel's of Mexico are so mighty and powerful, sure they'll take stolen arms from the U.S....but I promise you, if you believe we are their soul provider of arms, you're lying to yourself. Hell ever hear of the Zeta's? Guess who trained them? Try the U.S. Army. They now work for the cartels. They even use HK G-36's! Arms stolen from the Mexican army.

  • Type 56's are millitary. Those are illegal in the U.S.

  • BINGO! Which is why they wouldn't come from here, into Mexico. They would most likely come from Mexico, into the U.S. through the criminal element! (drug dealers, street gangs etc.) Where before there? Hell, China supply's Cuba with arms. You get my point?

    The entire argument that we proliferate guns into Mexico is retarted. Im not saying stolen arms don't end up there, but the cartel can afford to purchase greater firepower than anything legal in the U.S.

  • Bullshit! There is a fortune being made in Mexico, and guess who by...their government. An endless cyclical oppressive system of tyrant after tyrant. None loyal to their people, all loyal to the cartel's, drugs, and money.

    The reason why they are uneducated is because they are servants to them.

    The reason they have no guns, is so there won't be a rebellion against either the government, or the cartels.

  • Oh forgive me... the criminals are also making a killing there. I guess I forgot about them, since they work hand-in-hand with the police, military, and Mexican politicians.

    By the way....Japan is fairly safe...if you don't mind the police brutality that comes with their system. Kinda like the U.K. No guns!...and 500,000 survalence cameras.

    The only privacy you have is if you're taking a piss. Thats if your lucky. Oh, and don't count on not getting beaten or mugged.

  • i think you just might be assuming a bit there though

  • Nothing could have been done to prevent this killing. Even if gun laws were relaxed and the students were armed he would have killed a few people anyway. The problem is with the social decay in America. We are completely headed in the wrong direction. Prior to the "i need to find myself" bullshit of the 20th century people were married, had kids, and owned their own home by age 22 because of a strong job market and strong dollar. Responsibilty = sanity. This guy was coasting along in life.

  • That I also agree with.

  • 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.

  • Since this is undeniable proof that tough gun laws DO NOTHING, why not train and arm professors and students to legally carry on campus?

  • Think about it this way.

    1. There is no Conceal and Carry program in Illinois. It is illegal.

    2. All hand gun owners must have a license, the shooter did.

    3. There is a 72hour waiting period. What did that do?

    4. There is a required background check, even at gun shows. According to the ATF...the shooter was OK!

    5. Once again, like VT, like LTC, like the city councel shootings in Missouri. The NIU shooter was in a gun free zone.

  • Who the hell would have ever thought some crazy lunatic would even bring a gun into a school? I suppose that's why that is......it's a fucking school not a bar!

  • 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?

  • Like I said in another video. He had purchased a gun in August 2007, so either recently is not that recently, or stopping with medication is not the problem here.

  • I agree that's just a cop out his ass had enough sense to buy those damn guns. He had enough sense to kill hisself because he knew they was going to fry his ass. Medication my ass!

  • 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.

  • damn.

  • its true it did all happend thats not my point. My point is that the government planned this not bush or wtv im talking about ppl 100 times more powerful than bush. We're just getting introduced to the New World order please think outside of ur box

  • "Kazmierczak"? Son ov a bitch sounds like a damn Russian! Filthy Slav imergrants; These crackers will be the death ov us all!

  • Way to go "America" lol, It's so funny that u guys think ur country is so safe and all that BS and look what happens 3 or 4 times a year

  • I personally think this is all planed. The goverment is slowly putting people in fear. This all fake just for people to not feel safe anywhere. Why is it that all these shootings are happening now.... every year?? It really dosent make sense. The new world order!

  • u need to get things strait, that's not right, my step sister goes there, its as real as u r alive.

  • i actually think its three fold.

    almost everyone that has been killing people has stoped takeing pills or is taking pills.

    2nd.Every gunmen that ran across someone that was armed always got stoped.

    3rd the police and criminals have all the weapons.normal citzens are so restricted by laws and fees your reduced to a helpless victim in almost every case.but more gun laws are coming.i feel it..save the children!:(

    Gunmen attack your school do you want

    A Phone

    B Gun

  • How about open your mind, its because of people like you this happens, you make fun of other people because they are different, they get so fed up with it and then do things like this because of you and end up hurting innocent people in the process. Its not a matter of if the gunman was "Taking pills" its because you care more about making fun of him then actually realizing he was a human being.

  • nah the problem is people like you.the media talk about this as if its a gun problem and you talk about this as if its a social problem and its really a chemical problem.the drug companys getting everyone addicted to pills ..that make them crazy .thats the freaking problem.

  • This isn't fake you moron. I was going to that school until just this semester. I have plenty of friends who are still there. Think before you talk.

  • I knew it would happen again. It hasn't even been a year since VT. I would have won If Id placed a bet, cause its a pattern/ trend. Im sad to say but its almost as if this is part of our culture because its so common.

  • RIP

  • This might not have been so bad if responsible students were allowed to carry concealed to their classes. Taking guns from responsible citizens will not be a deterrent to crime, it will make it easier for you to fall prey to those who do not care about the law. Criminals won;t turn their guns in. There will always be a black market anyway, so those who think disarming good people will solve the problem are delusional.

  • so true, but would the NRA allow that?

  • i mean people are already saying more gun control more gun control

  • They always yell that, people never like to blame the person; it's the gun, it's the environment, it's the drugs...never...it's the fucking nutjob! All I know is if someone starts shooting in a room they can grab their phones and hope someone else saves them, I'll grab my gun from my side and stop the threat. Stand up for your rights people!

  • have u ever wondered why these never or rarely happen in europe?if the kids here in italy(where i live) carried guns to school we would have the same shooting records like the u.s

  • could all these shooting rampages lead to a private gun ownership ban....?

  • already is.tried to buy a gun lately? its freaking crazy and i live in texas lol one of the most pro gun ownership states.fees and permits and classes ..it cost the same amount to own a gun as it does to buy a used car lol.

  • I've been dreaming America since I was a boy the youngest Nations compared to our old Europe.I'm pretty sure that kind of events mean nothing, it's just one of deep crazy nonsense tragedies that occurs too many times in these days.

    I don't live in your Country - don't want to make easy judgements.I'm deeply sad that so much freedom and wealthness can be used sometime just for killing people and suicide.

    An italian friend

  • you may be right, but that just make me think how sad it is to actually have to do something like that. i don't get why people do this crap.

  • Better yet, arm every fourth responsible student and this nonsense will stop.

  • why am I not surprised? I betcha that guy who killed 31 at VT was kind of an inspiration for this guy. But as long as the NRA intimidates politicians, this will keep happening.

  • Don;t blame the NRA. They didn't give this nutjob the gun. Blame those that don't allow the guards and possibly responsible students to caryy guns to prtect themselves. This Country is going the wrong way with this issue. Arm everyone and restore civility to America. Nobody is going to pick a fight with someone they think might be armed.

  • Oh but anti-gunnies have to blame something other than the person, they don't become gunnies until they walk in on their wife or daughter being raped or killed!

  • Why can´t people like Steven Kazmierczak kill only theirselves and only want in narzism way go to the public? R.I.P you senseless killed people from Dekalb.

  • I can't believe you call us senseless people we are all just college students. All you can talk shit because you were no there. I was there locked in class with no answers. Do you have any idea what it is like to hear gun shots from the building next to you and have your professer look asboslutly stunned. The best part was not having your cell phone work because"all circuits are buys please try again later"

  • Yeah I couldn't make a call either yesterday. Alot of us just ran from Cole Hall's backside to DuSable since Reavis is way too close to Cole and it's probably not safe their either.

    The sounds still can't leave my head....

  • there needs to be gun control

  • I agree...vote democrat.

    God bless the students and their families.

  • My heart goes out to the students and the families of the victims. NIU grad student, Class 2005

  • Cho-Seung Hui owns this guy

  • is that what u really care about who got the most killings.people are dead and all you can think about is cho beat him in killings.you are one of them bastard's who is a miserable fuck and can't wait to see shit like this happen to boost up ur lonely ego.dumbfuck!

  • all you care about is how many people got shot? thats retarded. why don't i put you in a situation like that. then you can say that crap. people still got shot. people still died. people were still affected. please, do us all a favor and go get an education and have a little sympathy.

  • I think there are two main reasons:

    self-centered, indifferent and violent american culture produces millions of those teenage psychopaths. And with such loose gun laws, more shocking tragedies like that will bound to happen in the future if no one on top are gonna do something about it.

  • This is what you ve got when you make guns permissions so easy to get. god bless them all

  • Typical uneducated anti-gun comment, Illinois has some of the strictest gun laws, and all They do is leave the criminals armed and make good People victims unable to respond to a deadly threat.

  • The school is in a rural area and it's easier to access weapons in areas like that. People need to focus on helping the victims, the ones who witnessed this, and their families. They need positive thoughts right now.

  • Sigan con la ventas de armas a lo pendejo eso les pasa.

  • lol there is always someone posting a "stupid america" comment...yeah, I'm sure you live in a perfect utopia. Gun laws only effect law abiding people - they have no effect on "bad guys". No "gun law" could have stopped this from happening. Its sad to see anti-gun people use the deaths of these kids to further their politcial agenda.

  • 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?

  • People, please. Keep the social/political comments to yourself.

    People died.

    The page of comments I'm looking at now, there are just a bunch of comments about how we are stupid or bickering about who's right and wrong. ONE person said "My thoughts and prays are with the victims of this shooting! :'(" but only AFTER making a comment about gun control.

    Have some sense. This is not he time and it certainly isn't the place for any kind of meaningful social change.

  • All due respect to those who died and their families but iynque is off base. This country needs to seriously engage this issue for solutions to be implemented.We can't just sweep this under the rug considering there were 4 seperate shootings on school campuses in The US just in the last 10 days.You can suck your thumb if you want but the rest of us on college camuses are worried about what or who is next. These forums bring attention to the issue

  • This is so sad

  • Stupid american's and their gun law, there has too many gun incidents and nothing done? strange people.

  • This is really really sad, but it kind of does make you wonder how often these things would happen if the possible shooters thought that they would get shot at too.

    I mean there are good and bad points to gun control, but if crazy people are out there with guns killing for fun, then maybe I would feel safer carrying around my own gun.

    My thoughts and prays are with the victims of this shooting! :'(

  • My sis goes there! thats creepy 7 people died!! im so happy her class got cancelled!

  • More guns = less Yanks .......

    What the hell are are you guys doing to each other ?

  • Well, the US has 5% of the world population and 25% of the total incarcerated in the world. I'm from Minnesota, and I believe we are society that loves to breed hate. By the way, we are the wealthiest country in the world and have the most serial murderers.

  • For a long time now the U.S. government has been conducting mind control experiments on people to be "Manchurian Candidates". They take people, and under the auspice of psychological behavioral modification, give them psychotropic drugs (like Ritalin and Luvox type drugs). They actually change the thought process of the person in attempts to make them do something they normally do not do. This is the consequence of such actions.

  • bah, in usa is too easy to buy a gun.. It should be more easy to go to a Psychiatrist.

  • BREAKING NOOZ:REDNECK MENACE! Crazed, bloodthirsty WHITE men are rampaging through-out the nation! AMERICA IS UNDER SIEGE from these dangerous terrorists! BLOODY ST. VALENTINES DAY MASSACRE believed plotted by WHITE homegrown terrorists!

  • america's problem is that its too lenient with young people. i mean kids are really exposed to sex drugs alcohol violence etc.

  • THIS JUST IN: Federal Agents have broken up a WHITE terrorist cell in Northern Illinois known as the NORTH IL CONFEDERATE MILITIA! Several crackers were taken into custody. No word yet on this dangerous groups' involvement in the deadly shooting...

  • search up the song "Little Weapon" by Lupe Fiasco, the reason why those people were killed was because they don't listen to this man. The world needs Lupe.

  • You people are ridiculous! People died in this tragedy and you are making posts about jelly beans and arguing with people on the race of the killer! Does it even matter? Please muster up some respect for those lives lost today and their families and friends who are grieving.

    As a student at NIU, I would appreciate it if you'd not make ridiculous comments about this tragedy and keep the victims and their families in your prayers.

  • Hmmm.....I wonder if you're one of the good samaritans who tell those whites who are always making NIGGER comments on the black related videos to not say those thing's.

    When it's something concerning whites, you people expect everyone to just understand and feel sorry, but when it relates to blacks you people come with your little racial remarks.

    Btw, my condolences goes out to the blacks(if any) and non racist whites who were involved.

  • I do not in any way make racial slurs about anybody- black, white, hispanic, asian, or other races. If the killer had been another race, my comment would not have changed. The fact is that someone came to our school and killed innocent victims. It is my sincere hope that you will not only give condolences to the african americans and non-racist whites involved, but EVERYBODY involved. Even if someone victimised was racist he or she still deserves our respect through this tragedy.

  • This is a sad event but i love me school and I am sure this will bring us closer

  • 7 people are reported dead, its sad that I live so close and it sad why would someone do that

  • Darkness you sick mother fucker Im gunna find your ass.

  • I know were he lives.

    I'll lead you to him for 3 jelly beans and a bag of pixy dust.

  • u r a piece of shit..i am a student of NIU and how dare u post inconsiderate comments about the people that go here...u have no idea what it was like walking on the campus close to where the shooting was watching people run as i did myself.....ur crude and u should think before ur post anything negative on this terrible tradgedy

  • Could this have happened because it's Valentine's Day and this stupid fucker couldn't get any pussy?

  • OMG...i think he want to kill someone he hate,but since evryone run away,he get angry and kill how many person he can..many reason of this,stress,broken heart or else who know..God bless the Family who lost son or daughter yesterday except the gun man..hell will say hi to MR. Gunman.....

  • Hey try telling that to the millions of whites who post racist comments on all of the black related videos.

    -----------

    I DO DIP SHIT

  • Well if you do, then GREAT JOB!!

    LET'S KEEP HOPE ALIVE!!

  • sarahchoi123 It doesnt matter if he is black white or asian, he was a white guy for your information you fucking moron not black.

  • The True Side of Terrorism in AMerica

  • Shootings happen so close to when the supreme court about to have a case about the second amendment.How convenient.They want to get rid of the peoples guns so they have their way with them.This is most likely orchestrated.Watch the video problem reaction solution.Problems are created so the powers that be can have thhe excuse to take away our rights.

  • I agree barlog

  • actually they cant release information yet so people dont try to get involved and mess up the investigation

  • funny how the only thing the news covers is how quickly the police responded or how prepared colleges are for this sort of thing.

    instead of, who is he, why did he do it, what caused the incident to begin with?

    people just accept it as an unfortunate possibility in college life.

  • Give it time--they will get to it with round the clock coverage, no doubt. He was probably overeducated into thinking what a victim he is, or he never got over his bedwetting problem, or he was not breaatfed as a baby--take your pic. Pussy-weasel any way you slice it.

  • This isn't true. They're investigating what happened, his motives, and every other fact that they don't know right this moment. They don't just assume what happened and why it happened. Hold your horses.

  • Shooting happens so close to when the supreme court about to have a case about the second amendment.HOW CONVENIENT.THEY WANT THE PEOPLES

    guns so they can have there way with us.These shooting are most likely orchestrated.Its called problem reaction solution.Watch the google video

  • when ur put in that situation run ur mouth then.

    ---------------------

    Trust me buddy If I had a gun I would challenge that mother fucker.

    If I didn't have a gun it would be 500% harder for me to do something.

  • Yeah it isn't but you notice there are tons of white racists on youtube what make every single black related video a KKK fest? If the shooter was black the comments would have been like "hang that nigger!" "he's a savage that should be sent back!, blah, blah. Hypocrits.

    ----------------------

    How the fuck am I a hypocrit when I am not racist?

    YOU ARE THE FUCKING HYPOCRIT making this a racist matter when you dont like racists, look up the fucking word moron.

  • You are 110% correct.

  • First of all he was white....2nd of all since none of u were there you dont know what u would have done. U can say ohg i wouldve shot him i wouldve done this and that...when ur put in that situation run ur mouth then. You couldnt even get to a cell phone all u want to do is get out u have no defense against someone who is set on killing u and doesnt care about themselves.

  • I go to this school and I just want people to be aware the counseling usually takes 3 months to get into if you don't sign up at the right time. Additionally, they had a threat last December, and ALL they did was shut down campus for a day. I fully agree we need guns for self defense. Had I been there, (and I AM an NIU student), I would have definitely shot the bastard had I the right to bear arms. Vote judiciously!

  • Who cares if you have the right to carry, carry a small gun with you anyway and when those psychos show up you will be the ehro when you blow thier head off.

    IT DOESNT MATTER WHEN YOUR DEAD, SO PROTECT YOURSELF

  • I don't give a fuck, If a psycho comes to a university im going to and starts shooting I will have my own gun and I will shoot back and blow his fucking head off before he can hurt other people

  • I completely agree!

  • this isnt about the second amendment its about why people use them and how they use them for all you know hatered against innocent can be used in any way gernades bats knives whatever it tyakes to kill ...so get to the real problem which is why they even started shooting !!!1

  • People need to WAKE UP!

    When I see on the news, "a student of XYZ university kills the XYZ psychotic gunman because he braught protection to school" when i see that on the news, we will take back our schools.

  • 1NCEAGN this isnt a race issue you fucking racist.

  • Yeah it isn't but you notice there are tons of white racists on youtube what make every single black related video a KKK fest? If the shooter was black the comments would have been like "hang that nigger!" "he's a savage that should be sent back!, blah, blah. Hypocrits.

  • Hey try telling that to the millions of whites who post racist comments on all of the black related videos.

  • Well I was reading a the report and its says that this is the 5 gun shooting at schools THIS WEEK!! Now how come I havent herd any of those? And I cant go to school with out my cell phone on anymore. The first week of school there was a kid who arrived with a knife a hitlist. Just guess what happened to him... NOTHING!!! Im afraid of what this country is turning into. Like I always say... IN BUSH WE TRUSTED, NOW WERE BUSTED! I have that bumper sticker!!!

  • Someone can get a gun illegally in any country in the world. These things aren't about guns they are about culture. There are aspects of the US culture that make these situations happen more often than in other countries. The fact that the American media can't even name one true reason is just one indication of why these shootings occur in the US.

  • Yeah. Just like how they were last year at Virginia Tech. Schmuck.

  • Jesuse, I wonder how many US presidents were killed by minorities.

    1. Lincoln? it was a white guy who killed him

    2. McKinley? white guy

    3. JFK? White guy

    Damn, just how many more presidents are going to die from a bullet shot by a person of the majority?

  • I was simply disputing that one's color doesn't dictate criminal behavior by giving an example wherein a shooter in a situation like this wasn't white. And that's a pretty weak argument considering you only mention presidents who have been shot. What about common folk who get shot by people of all races every day? Do they not count?

  • Colleges are way to big to set up a huge security force, bring a gun and when those crazy people start killing innocent people blow thier fucking head off while they are reloading, and make sure you dont miss.

  • Man, these crackers are on the rampage! I know it was a White man who did this shit. I just KNOW it!

  • The 2nd Amendment should be changed. It was useful back then, it's worse that worthless now.

  • If I go to a university I am going to carry a gun to school every day to protect myself, and when one of these crazy fucks who kill people show up I am going to empty the entire chamber into thier fucking head.

  • Oh great, now you're assuming that it's a black guy who shot those students. It could've been an angry Korean or Caucasian guy all over again (Columbine anyone?). Idiot.

  • dude no need 2 be mad at me u geez i jus thought they said he was a African american if i made u mad then im sorry maybe i heard a mistake dont make such a big deal out of it

  • Sorry to break your heart. But he was WHITE...........

  • Hey DUMBASS read the news reports before you post your STUPID ASS comments.

    All of the EYEWITNESSES described the shooter as a "skinny WHITE guy with a stocking cap on"

  • I don't give a fuck what color he is, did your small brain not understand that the first time?

  • You are fucking retarded the guy wasn't black you stupid bitch.

  • I was thinking the same thing especially since they have not mentioned the race of the shooter. They always stereotype white males as doing such things. But from what I have seen this is far from the truth. What with the D.C. shooters, and the crazy hunter, or the last college nut. I hope this stereotyping of the evil white man ends. Hollywood is sure not helping. Now is the time to reach out to help these grieving families. I just wish that more people would carry guns.

  • he is white, scumbag

  • You can't be serious.lol I'm black and I went to college.. Also there are dozens of Black colleges, and thousands of black kids in all other colleges. Even Harvard has Black students. Every college does. Your attempt at humor fails. lol at ignorant fucks. Even college can not weed them out.

  • lol, majestic.. Your whole existence is a fucking joke. Did you even attend college?

  • Not to mention your 30 and you have the intellect of a 15 year old.

  • Yeah Spellman, Morehouse, Tuskegee and etc; are WHITE COLLEGES, the students who go there are just white kids with paint on them.

    HA! HA! YOU DUMMY!!

  • No, not only did your assume that it was an African-American, you also implied that that it was the same shooter of the Lane Bryant Store. For person of Chinese-descent (or perhaps Chinese wannabe), you truly are trash. Idiot.

  • This really happened this afternoon.  18 people injured, the shooter killed himself with a self inflicted gunshot wound.

    The Campus is on lockdown - there are no classes today or tomorrow.

    The governor has declared a state of emergency for DeKalb County.

    Two victims have been airlifted from Kishwaukee hospital to Regional trauma centers.

  • If they didn't have guns this would never have happened.

    Seriously, how stupid are you?

  • Or if all the students could carry guns, every1 could shoot each other.

  • Truth be told, this country has some the most liberal, yes LIBERAL gun laws. In fact when school shooting occur in countries with more stringent gun laws, there are people who fear that their country is becoming like America.

    So, I say to you gun-happy liberals, guns should only belong in goverment law enforcement agencies and the military
