I am ending my participation in any discussion about guns on campus.

Hey, if you don't like to see threads hijacked, don't post to FR.

1: Stop the bleeding
2: Protect the wound
3: Clear the air passage
4: Treat for shock

My description was overly basic but would have kept most people alive. Traditionally it is airway, breathing, circulation (heart pumping as well as stopping bleeding). Assuming the person has an open airway, is breathing, and their heart is pumping, they can last quite a while even with major trauma.

you’re not doing anything about it.

i REALLY HATE it when FREEPERS lie about me—especially out of ignorance.

The assertion above is extremely far from the truth.

GRRRR

Thanks for that update.

Just got a message on my cellphone from one of my doctor clients who just took over a private hospital in Roanoke Va..

He was notifying me of a referral. When I called his home number, I asked his son if he was treating anybody from the Virginian Tech shooting.

He told me yes, he's treating three right now.

I can’t look at the hate on other websites. That is the problem with our country. HATE HATE HATE. We need to be brought to our knees in a time of healing. I see the left wackos who are so full of hate and just tell myself they are blinded by truth. Our country needs healing. This is a random act of killings, but we have all sat back and let this type of hate fester. I just can see my God with tears dripping from his eyes with the direction our nation has chosen to go down.

They hired a PC president at VT several years ago. Turned out she was a lesbian and she took the job on the condition that her “partner” would be hired as an instructor, or something like that. There was such an outcry when that was revealed that she had to leave (the instructor). Not sure if I have all my facts right, but my mom lives in Roanoke and it was carried in the papers. I don’t know if this woman is still president or not. What VT needs is leadership. Real leadership.

From what I am hearing...on FNC. It sounds like this is all premediated! He locked the doors with a chain and went in and knew just where he was going and what he was going to do. Way too much amo for this to be a disgruntal boyfriend.

Have heard that this guy had some "military" training. This wasn't just a guy upset about a break up.

In england “asian” usually refers to people from the Subcontinent (India, pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri lanka). Many, but far from all, are Muslims. Middle Easterners might also be called Asians, but in England their numbers are far, far smaller than people coming from India and (old East and West)Pakistan.

MSNBC interviewing a freshman in the dorms. Said the fight started at 7:15 AM, was girlfriend/boyfriend conflict.

A resident assistant went to intervene when it got loud and the perp shot both the girl and the RA. Suspect then went to his first class and shot everyone in there

We need to get (our allies?) the Japanese, the Koreans and yes, even the Chinese to protest the use of the word ‘Asian’ to describe these muslim terrorists.

The rest of the world refers to the japanese, koreans and chinese as "orientals". That term became offensive for some reason here in the states.

security on most college campuses is really nonexistent

Most of their time is spent unlocking cars with the keys inside. They do a great job. (Personal experience here.)

I’m just speculating here, but to give the VTI people the benefit of the doubt, it is actually possible to reload one empty gun while holding another (ready) gun in your other hand. It is terribly slow, but it does have the advantage of being able to hold the unarmed at bay while you do it.

are you a democraticunderground plant

As other repliers may have failed to point out, Centurion2000 is a long time prolific freeper who is widely recognized here. Do your homework before flaming.

I don’t have a complete, detailed list. Only what is stored in memory. The Seattle synagogue shooting, the student who blew himself up outside a football game at OU, the Salt Lake City Mall shooting and the UNC muslim who drove his SUV into a group of students. Just random acts that could be the result of what is now known as sudden jihad syndrome. We’ll have to wait and see on this one. Somehow I doubt it’s all about a girlfriend.
