Another gun free zone exploited by a bad man. I remember watch the video feed and it was obvious that the local PD had no tactical control of the situation, they were disorganized and running every direction. VT is a great argument for concealed carry. The killer is at the door, and the police are 5 minutes away, none of those kids had a chance.

Thanks for reminding us TSgt Joe C. that on April 16, 2007 mentally disturbed Seung Hui Cho "shot a female freshman and a male resident assistant in a campus dormitory before fleeing the building. Police were soon on the scene; unaware of the gunman’s identity, they initially pursued the female victim’s boyfriend as a suspect in what they believed to be an isolated domestic-violence incident. However, at around 9:40 a.m., Cho, armed with a 9-millimeter handgun, a 22-caliber handgun and hundreds of rounds of ammunition, entered a classroom building, chained and locked several main doors and went from room to room shooting people. Approximately 10 minutes after the rampage began, he committed suicide. The attack left 30 people dead and another 17 wounded. In all, 27 students and five faculty members died as a result of Cho’s actions."
Several family friends had students at that facility during that time. thankfully none of them were killed.
