My impression as well. This guy had some training. Shooting is one thing. Killing is another. This guy was very effective.
Of course the ABC poll is worded in a very biased manner. There is no chance that armed citizens could lessen such carnage according to the poll. It only gives anti-control Neanderthals like me the choice of saying that it is an “isolated” event unrelated to gun control.
Massive amounts of basic information are routinely botched in all breaking stories.
Excellent point. Student visas used to be class “F-1”.
thanks
So every time I go anywhere without a wallet and cell phone I'm "sanitized?"
I’m watching Geraldo Live at 12:15. He shows the guy’s site, but won’t show us his face, so he’s got it covered with a piece of paper. Then when he tries to switch to another picture, he pulls the paper off and there’s that guy’s picture.
The guy is completely innocent. He’s just a guy who likes guns, and goes to Virginia Tech. It’s disgusting how Fox is running stuff about him to justify their previous smearing of him “Just look at his picture, it’s understandable that people thought he might be the guy”.
I screwed up. The "no's" (No. Violent shootings are isolated incidents and it's irresponsible to link them to gun control.) are winning.
What does this mean?
As you may be aware, Section 121 of Public Law 105-277, the Omnibus Appropriations Act for 1999, amended the Gun Control Act of 1968 to prohibit, with certain exceptions, the transfer to and possession of firearms by aliens admitted to the United States under a nonimmigrant visa. This definition includes, in large part, persons traveling temporarily in the United States for business or pleasure, persons studying in the United States who maintain a residence abroad, and certain foreign workers. Therefore, you, as a Federal firearms licensee, are prohibited from transferring firearms to aliens that fall within this category.

Fox reporting on the guy with all the guns on the face? site. Do they think this is the real shooter???
Most would rather spend their cash on partying.
I pointed that out as well.
The poll should be worded something like this:
A) No. Law-abiding armed citizens can save lives and prevent tragedies such as this.
B) Yes. Making the crazed killers who already committed tens of gun-related felonies in addition to murdering more than thirty people guilty of a few more felonies will prevent tragedies like this in the future.
If I were a lawyer, I’d be calling the guy right now and negotiating a fee. FoxNews is in big on this on.
They are stalking him....Megan had a photographer and sound guy with her and they went to his house! They can’t find him....
No, they’re saying that they showed it to LEO’s and were told that it isn’t the perp. They were showing the armaments the student had and the things he had said on his webpage (which are inflammatory to say the least).
On Geraldo - that guy said the facebook page has stuff written on it like “God forgive me for killing all my girlfriends?”
Looks like an old fashioned “air raid siren” would have been best. Who’d a thunk it?
