Shooting Up the House

Well, this year has been kind of screwy to begin with, but this one tops the cake.

At the beginning of the year some criminal escaped in a hospital and shot two people...that stopped the first day of classes. This past month we have had several bomb threats...

And today 32 people were killed.

I was doing foal watch all last night...so when I got back I went straight to sleep. I woke up to sirens and this mess. It started in West A-J - a shooter killed a student in that building. Then they captured him. Three hours later there was shooting in Norris Hall, and that was the big one. 31 people died there including the shooter, and 28 people were wounded.

I dont think this has hit me yet...I might be a little too tired...but this is unbelievable. It is the deadliest campus shooting in America History. The beast lined them up execution style and shot them while looking for his girlfriend.

I dont know how...and I know it must have been frightening and I feel so awful for them...but why didnt someone try and stop him? They could have! There were enough people! But maybe I am tired and dont understand.

I dont know what crazies thought this up, and I dont know if it was related to the bomb threats. I must be in some kind of shock from lack of sleep...because I dont really know if I feel anything right now.

I hope the dead one is rotting in hell right now though.

Sorry for the anger...
