Northern Illinois University shooting: Student witnesses

[W0lfb0y13]

dude i used bye this university

[n310ea]

This just proves that shootings only occur in gun-free zones.

[stuckONreplayREPLAY]

:( my brother was shot but he survived i cant stop thinking of the ones who lost thier lives its rlly sad :(

[BiGGyCLD]

grr honestly i would of fucking jumped the gunmans ass ..rather take my life trying to stop him and save a couple lives while im holding him off ...its a shame and my prayers go out to all those familys what happend was not right at all

[Irkcibozkurt]

@BiGGyCLD fukin lier

[WretchedDrake]

maybe if kids at NIU werent trying to be tough shit then problems like this wouldnt happen... goes for all schools actually

[honeybises]

He was no longer an NIU student...he was a grad student at U of I. He also had a history of mental illness. You can't quite equate that with trying to look cool and you can generalize that to all NIU students.

[msav111]

lol

[Machinehead456]

fuck this motherfucker..im an NIU student.. If you really think this was a good thing i hope you burn in hell

[dudeirock89]

that is the exact thing i was thinking, im not an NIU student, but there is no way that this was a good thing to do.

[kalaslsl]

Another bullied teen when he was in H.S.

[jakesbog]

maybe but he was taking meds and forgot to take them. that's what caused it. he wasn't taking his medications. sad that this happened.

[badshamuma]

steven k. was a christian terrorist

[badshamuma]

steven k. was a terrorist

[FloyydGayweather]

god bless steven k.

6 people wrent even enough.

[dumanavcisi]

as a NIU student, your lack of emotion worries me for the safety of others,,,,,,may god be more kind to you than Steven K. in showing you a way out of your misery

[FloyydGayweather]

To tell you the truth, i feel bad for the students and a little bit for the gunman. I just think our society is really messed up.

[966744]

im on cam and bored

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TALK TO ME e3

[DrAss2001]

What is this world coming to??????????????

[meganloves2shop]

that is what I am wondering..

[magog9]

the shooter was Polish but how come the polish community dont get harrased like the korean community after the vtech shooting? is it because he is white or because he didnt kill enough people?

[sweetrevenge12345678]

STEVEN IS A HERO..RIP

[yoda55]

Some of these comments on youtube just make me sick like the people who are supporting this guy who did the shooting and say hes a hero for doing this fuckin people these days.

[ILoveBears86]

At :05 is a milf!!!!!!!!!!

[cjs176]

At least one school shooting happens every year across the globe, majority of them here in Amreica. Which school is next? Maybe Yours!

[YllwFvrPB]

so protect yourself and go buy a pistol so you wont be the next victim, youll be the next survivor and save the lives of those around you.

[Riggro]

I don't know what I would do in a situation like that. hopefully I never have to be in a situation like that, but if I am, I wish I'm armed so I can shot the bitch.

[Ultrad321]

fuck you gregjock. don't expect us to come save you when your piece of shit country gets blown up by muslim terrorists.

like anybody gives a shit about canada either? Canada is like America without a backbone. AMERICA IS FUCKING AWESOME!!

[shonaliprantor2001]

oH yeah, thats why, it is called FUCKING awesome... lolzzz...I cant stop laughing...if you want to watch how awesome they are...write in youtube "Europe is a country and people speak french there"---you are not gonna miss that clip. Do you??? ;-)) World Peace

[arkor7]

Are you allright?

[1curt12]

first of all I live in canada not america here in canada we are doing the peace keeping not the war. I am not a holier then thou person I have my flaws but I think the shit your saying is fucked you are a fucked up person that really needs help.

[1curt12]

your fucking sick! people who have nothing to offer arre people like you who have nothing better to do then put others down to try and make yourself feel better. You are just ask sick as those people who did that no one deserves to die no one has the right to take someone elses life either. so also for you why dont you find something else to do then put sick comments like what you did up.

[lavakava]

if this was a black guy, all the david dukes, and white trash racists on the internet would be spewing racist vile crap. i hope this white trash russian goes to hell.

[1curt12]

really man get a life cmon go shoot urself

[BlackTiger6593]

You're sick. Seek professional help.

[komrade55]

man if i was allowed to carry my gun to campus i wouldnt have to crawl out i wouldnt be a victim and neither would hundreds of other innocent people .. support carry on campus

[BlackTiger6593]

No it's not funny. My brother goes there. He saw someone who was shot lying in the parking lot outside his dorm. That may make me biased, but I remember when I heard about other school-shootings like V-Tech. I wasn't biased then and I still didn't think it was funny. Saying that something like this is funny only makes you seem ignorant. It's not funny when people are killed or seriously injured and it never will be funny.

[amberanddave]

hes famous now, who cares there just americans, its in there dna to kill each other and all life

[AnBon74]

amber, school shootings happen all over the world. google it. You can thank me later for the free education.

[ParapaDrifter]

So, you think he put the gun upon them because he was in the population control business? I think you assume much. But, I would like to know the reasons, it would help us help people like him better.

I cannot believe that if he was in pop. control that he would be doing this in BFE Dekalb. You're just being argumentative.

what is the purpose of life?

[Antonella7494]

Stephen was a fan of Eric Harris, Dylan Klebold, Cho or any other murderer of those massacres and school shootings??

[lilcracka62]

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

[ParapaDrifter]

dang? thank god for a psycho? Their hate is so misplaced it makes me sick...

[lilcracka62]

they make no sense at all, they are the most ignorant people I have ever seen.

[AnBon74]

if the Westboro Baptist Asses come near you, SUE THEM. If enough people do this, they will be tied up in court for years and will have no time to harrass others!

[AnBon74]

lilcracka62, I think we have a Westboro Nutjob Sickfuck RIGHT HERE on this page: greglockca62. if we ignore the loser, maybe he'll go away. This ignorant piece of dog vomit breathes valuable air.

[ParapaDrifter]

hmmm... i disagree. It's my contention that ignoring what people have to say, albeit fringe statements, is what brought upon such a tragedy.

Refuse no one, be understanding to all, and turn the other cheek. The cycle of violence ends with the kind.

[lilcracka62]

he's deff. crazy, wtf is he talking about.

[ParapaDrifter]

I think greglockca is more or less pissed about how we've, as a society, become conditioned to hand personal responsibility to another. we expect cops to keep us safe cause we pay them. we expect health trainers to keep us fit cause we pay them etc

Money buys lot of things but it don't buy safety it buys a safe state of mind.

Point: People like greglockca hates how fleeced and docile people have become and views us all as weak cattle, to be treated with as much respect -At least thats my take.

[lilcracka62]

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.

[AnBon74]

gregsicko: and your solution is?...

[AnBon74]

My dog puked and out came greglockca18.

[AnBon74]

And now we have yet another damn massacre at a school. When are we gonna make it illegal for ANYONE under psychiatric care and/or on anti-depressants to get firearms?? We need to stop being such pussies and stop being afraid of trampling on the 'rights' of sickos. All kinds of red flags on Cho at VT and he still got guns. Now this piece of shit loser was able to get guns. ARM THE TEACHERS, or this will continue to happen. Sad and pathetic. RIP all the victims at NIU.

[chigemini620]

WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU???

[DeSma091]

RIP catalina Garcia class of 06

[bigangelsfan1234]

i totaly agree, the police are under no legal obligation to protect you. until they allow law abiding students have ccw's on campus then need to have an armed guard protecting everyone of us. it is only the law abiding citizens who dont bring weapons the criminals dont care and what happens? law abiding citizens die

[skibbyguy56]

We did what we were trained to do. We were on lock down immediately. NIU cops were there in 29 seconds. The one failure was in the lack of cell service. My Sprint phone was useless in town. We return 2/19 to learn how to help scared students come back 2/25. It our job. We will do it, no matter how bad we feel. Love one another, Peace.

[skibbyguy56]

Ok, everyone calm down. (I swear people will fight over anything.) I work and am a graduate student at NIU. Your sympathy or ideas are great. The rest is not. 20,000 students, a town of 40,000 plus faculty/staff has been traumatized. Nothing was done illegal until a sad young man committed mass murder. Can we look at laws? Yes...do better security? Always room for improvement. ...be totally prevented? No.

[krockettandtubs]

Whenever an innocent person dies - its horrible, no doubt. NO argument.! In regards to the subject not taking his required medicine - this gets very tricky and is handled different from state to state based on laws. In Illinois the law clearly states that the subject must be a threat to himself/herself or others for authorities to step in. Perhaps that law should be revisited.

[landcruiserlarry]

See he was Wearing BLACK!!! arg i have said all along... BAN BLACK it makes you kill, its the presence of all colors... its evil the more you wear the sooner you'll lose it and go on a rampage. BAN BLACK NOW!!! oh yeah and how about bread too... statistics say 90-95% of all murders are commited within 24 hours of eating bread, BAN BREAD TOO!!!

Ban black and Bread!! Ban black and bread...

its a shame, media making him famous

[128013]

Europeans need to start telling their children the truth about their history and the type of people that they come from. You can't expect the people who come from individuals who have hanged people, gassed people and cut off peoples balls to be normal. You should not have to go to college to learn that Europeans all over the globe since the 15th century have participated in nothing less than what the NIU shooter did.

[jevus24]

wtf are u talking about?

stupid bitchh

[saprissa9]

i've taken a few steps for my security 1. when i move from classroom to classroom ima walk in a different way where most people are found. secondly ima start being cool with any "weird" looking kid i see at skool. third step i've taken is to memorize where all the skool alarms are located and memorize them, if something happens that will alert the authorities. let me know if you guys thought of something better ill appreciate it.

[Chunko76]

Everyone immediatly jumps on the "GUNS ARE THE PROBLEM" bandwagon when a shooting occurs. Everyone fails to see that these poeple were on medication and quit or should've been on medication, but never got help. The guy quit taking his meds and went nuts, if he didn't have guns he would've found another way. The US needs to more testing on all these meds they just throw at people and say "This will make all your problems go away"

[nickbendas]

i agree dt089.... God Bless America

[dt089]

You ppl who comment with no sympathy sicken me. You have no idea how the victims and there families are feeling right now. To you fucks dissing America you should all burn and hell. Dont get mad at us cuz were one the richest, most powerful countries in the world with the best Military who will whoop the fuck out of anyone. Next time you guys diss the U.S. jus remember YOU CANT TOUCH US and we own your asses.

[nickbendas]

RIP the victims of NIU... Our prayers are with you

[nickbendas]

u inconsiderate pieces of cr*p.... do u have any compassion for the innocent people that died in that tragic disaster...what if it was your mother, or brother, or sister, or other loved one?? if you have nothing good to say to the people than dont say it at all. O and by the way, God Bless America, we kicked your ass once (or bailed it out) and we'll do it again.

[Touzefihoume]

american poeple realy suck..poor iraqui poeople...

[bigangelsfan1234]

learn how to fucking spell

[slim77limmy]

the problem is obviously the easy gun access in the states.

[ki43hayabusa]

amelikanese just love committing violence, both in and out of their pathetic country.

[loyalj7]

One of my good friends died in this shooting....rip cathy....i knu her from grade skoo to high skoo....and i cant b leave shes gone now...

[semperfi554]

i'm sorry for your loss. Hopefully things like this won't happen again.

[jevus24]

my cousin died in that shooting..

she was the hispanic one..

catalina garcia..her awake is tomorrow..

='[

this too sad..i miss her..

RIP cathy.

<333333333 alwayssss

[theundisputed7]

My deepest condolences to you and your family and friends

[semperfi554]

i'm sorry best wishes to you and your family

[russianpartychick]

Taken too young,

Sorry about your loss.

[KROMEXICAN]

and i was going to go there but ended up at depaul instead

[CindyTanisha87]

When are these shootings are going to stop!!! When is the U.S. goverment going to secure schools and colleges!?!? WAY TO GO BUSH!!!

[Tisdella]

It is reported that the shooter was taken off of a medication and started acting strange. Withdrawel from paxil can cause psychotic problems. My husband withdrew and he is convinced that many of these school shootings are due to paxil withdrawel. So maybe the issue is not "securing our schools" but getting more info out about the danger of paxil withdrawel. Do yourselves a favor and never allow your doctor to prescribe paxil for you.

[russianpartychick]

Never, this senseless act is going to be reanacted over and over into the future, drugs, violent video games, mental problems and and all those other things that allow this stuff to happen. Pretty pathetic isn't it.

[Abohafs]

thats a terrorist attack..

[jevus24]

thats wat my dad said

[davetobys]

great...another blow to the white people...another white shooter

[russianpartychick]

It makes us look really bad, I don't mean to offend anyone, If I do I'm sorry.

[obesewoman]

This is so sad because I live near this university. NIU is one of the best universities in the area.

[sassylipz]

Another school shooting???? Let me guess.... Another white male??????

[mamacal123]

My prayers are with the families of the victim and the shooter...Don't despair because of evil, God will have the last word.

Be strong for the victims and go on with living, doing good unto others.

[Megabuttkicker]

I dont know what to say, shocking :o

[lNeolNomad]

Suicide Bombers in Iraq....Suicide Shooters in America...sad...:(

[nicknicknickj]

well we can't get shot by the same person Aliks777 if that's what you're thinking because after he shot those people he killed himself!!! and my friends mom works there luckily she was off that day!

[Aliks777]

fuck dat shit, we shud bring guns to school and take down these mofakas before he gets us

[Megabuttkicker]

LMao

[7789902]

Now some dude is probably thinking....hmmmm...he got 17 of them - I bet I can break that record.

I give it another 8 months for the next one.

Remember the NRA mantra: Guns don't kill people...guns just make it easier.

Yeee haaaaww!

[SimSutcliff]

Americans should put more cameras in their classrooms. It would be a simple way to produce violent Hollywood type movies.

[TomCat2800]

The reason us American's have so much violence is because stupid foriegners like you come from your shitty countries and start crimes in the U.S.

[SimSutcliff]

How old are you? 13? You reason like a child.

[TomCat2800]

I'm 13? Your the one who thinks that innocent people dieing should be made into Hollywood movies for entertainment you sick fuck.

[7789902]

It's because you guys lack family values and glorify the gun culture. Your country was created under violence with over 12,000 murders per year and growing. And people like you carry an NRA card around wondering why people use guns to resolve their issues. DUH! Go watch some monster truck rally...don't try to think - you sound too retarded.

America IS Iraq.

[Deutschlieber]

You hate America but all of you want to come here and get a piece. According to the Pew Foundation, the US will be majority Hispanic within 40-50 years. So who are you going to blame then?

[7789902]

I don't hate america I just don't understand how a people keep voting in the Republicans who are so pro-elite that they WANT to swamp america with hispanics for the cheap labour. That party is who created free-trade (job outsourcing programs). So, what you get is what you asked for - don't complain now.

[MacattackBadaBingbby]

because that is what is important here? show some respect you clown.

[AnBon74]

Jorge Bushendez Sr. created NAFTA/CAFTA, but Bill Clinton made it become reality. It went out of control under Bushendez Jr. If Billary, Osama or McAmnesty get to be Prez, it will get worse. But i digress...

[AnBon74]

Not so. Hispanics are projected to be about 25% in 2050, whites 55%,blacks 15%, then everyone else.

[MacattackBadaBingbby]

Your from Canada, your entire country copies every damn thing our country does..We set your precedent.

[smeary10]

What's important, muppett, is what your so wonderful precedent setting country is going to do about your ridiculous 2nd ammenment.

You have a gun murder rate higher than any war zone in the world at the moment.

[7789902]

If we copy everything you do then you should be giving your population universal healthcare as we do up here...maybe even produce budget surpluses to the tune of mulitipule BILLIONS every years since the past decade....SOUNDS like you know how to talk the talk but we walk what you talk.

[HAZARDOUS88]

lol, how wrong you are.

[braceface103103]

the event that happened was unfortunte, but we must move on, RIP

[maceyrokks119]

my friends aunt was julianna and she was one that died.:(
