The Shooter goes in knowing he has a free fire zone until the police come no one is likely to have a weapon to stop him. He can take his time and take careful aim.

To hell with this, I’m a full time student and after today, my .45 is going in my back pack. It is better to be tried by 12 than carried by 8.

Who would have ever thought that a degenerate psycho killer would ignore a “gun free zone”.

Actually, I take this article as progress. When a legislator can propose such a law without being immediately labeled a nutcase, things are changing. It took Missouri a couple of attempts to get concealed carry, but they eventually did. It took an overriden veto in Kansas. Give this a few years and we may see different results.

Virginia Tech spokesman Larry Hincker was happy to hear the bill was defeated. "I'm sure the university community is appreciative of the General Assembly's actions because this will help parents, students, faculty and visitors feel safe on our campus."Tragic liberal idiocy.

This article and the consequences will be ignored by the msm, while the brady bunch will swoop in like vultures to call for more victim disarmament.

Here’s what Hincker’s thinking now: “Man, I’m glad we got that gun rights bill defeated. Can you imagine the outrage at us now if that bill had passed?”

“Virginia Tech spokesman Larry Hincker was happy to hear the bill was defeated.”
Someone needs to ask him how happy he is today.

ban on students or employees carrying guns
I guess that includes university security guards.

If VA Tech had no policy whatever they would be better off.
Virginia Tech spokesman Larry Hincker shot his mouth off and the killer knows it is open season. I am glad Drudge featured this article.
I know the media will publish against gun availability generally and not consider the deterence value or defense value. They are content to let the students lie down and comply like good little sheep while they are duly slaughtered.

How on EARTH could a firearm be present on campus when they’re illegal?? Something just doesn’t add up here! -_-
To: txroadkill
It is better to be tried by 12 than carried by 8. LOL! 8? Better cut back on the Twinkies! It's normally 6.

Sickening. One trained, licensed and armed student, or cop, or for that matter janitor in the right place could have averted this tragedy.

Here’s what would have happened, had the bill passed: the gunman would have killed one or two students, been permanently put out of commission by law abiding heroes, and the whole issue would have been blamed on the passage of this bill: “SEE! We need fewer guns on campus, not more! THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS!!” Nobody but a conservative would have predicted the outcome of twenty dead and dozens injured.
It would be the whole “everyone’s equally guilty” ploy all over again. Guns in the hands of heroes, guns in the hands of bloodthirsty murderers, when will it ever stop!?

Hey, lay off about my Twinkies, I’m just doing my part to help keep an American institution in business and help the American economy. My box of Twinkies a week is Patriotic!

the Virginia Association of Chiefs of Police came out against the presence of guns on campus.
Makes one feel all warm and fuzzy inside, doesn't it?

If you stop eating twinkies, the terrorists have won.
Fight the good fight.
