VA - Virginia Tech Shooting, 32 murdered, 23 injured, 16 April 2007

I just noticed that, too, Maura. Very sad for the entire family, but it will be devastating for his twin.

Yes he has pictures of himself with tons of guns. Someone on another message board found his page early today. I don't know how. He also says some really odd things on the page.

Is this suppose to be the 1st killer? Thanks Sweetie. I know that sounds like a dumb question!

I just read through 11 pages - wasn't online earlier and didn't have the t.v. on - didn't hear about this tragedy until around 7 p.m. and am just catching up.

This is unbelievably sad, and it sickens me to read that other people out there (the other MySpace account) use this kind of stuff as a way to get attention. If the MySpace account is a hoax, then I hope that person gets some serious psychiatric care - if it's true, then I hope LE nails him for all they can.

I saw Dr. Phil on LKL and he made such a good comment about kids today being our future and how they're exposed to violence in video games and movies and it "numbs them" (I forget the word he used, that's my own description). I sadly agree with that and I wish more parents would take the time to care about what their children are seeing and playing. IMO, too many parents nowadays just take the "easy way out" and let their kids play whatever they want and watch whatever they want, just so they're out of their hair. I fear it's only going to get worse in our world as this next generation grows up.

Prayers to everyone affected by this terrible tragedy.

ETA: The thread is still "off" - I posted this around 11:30 p.m. EST and the post time states 9:30 p.m. ??

wow, he has a twin brother
Prayers for his family

I bet his twin brother is beside himself tonight. Thanks for posting that Elphaba. Scandi

Just a quick note about bomb threats. Every single place I've worked, there have been numerous reports of bomb threats called in, mostly to high schools, and mostly on test days. Governments get their share as well, but it's really rampant at high schools.

I don't think a string of three bomb threats would truly would make anyone suspect something like this.

Well he's asian if that means anything. I think they are still saying there is just one killer. At least on my local news.

Ok, they have posted on the death:

Do you think this guy is the same guy as Ryan?




I found two My Space pages for a Ryan Clark at Virginia Tech but I would hate to post the wrong person.

The first picture makes me think it is him... he was reported as being a member of the VTech marching band. What a handsome young man he was...

I found that myspace earlier today when I looked for Ryan Clark. I wasn't sure if it was him or not though.

Thanks Absolut. What kind of person can this guy be? they are trying to get him in an interview on my radio But I am not interested in hearng from this guy.

 

[curiositycat]

It sure looks like him Maura. Thanks for the link! If it is, how sad...the last time he checked his myspace page was 04/15.

 

[JBean]

Does he have photos of himself with guns and he is Asian? Geraldo won't name him because it is not confirned {can you believe that ;} but FOX News is in the process of checking this out real thoroughly!

Hi BEAN!

HI scandi!

Well apparently this guy is alive b/c he posted that he is not the shooter. I think someone just found his space, he is asian and likes guns so they assumed he was the shooter.

There have been many posts throughout the day that are apparently gone now.

So, I guess that this guy's name is Wayne Chiang. That is the name that was engraved on one of the machine guns. Where did this guy get these guns??

Wow, this poor guy.... look at the way they are carrying him!

 

[curiositycat]

Husband says that they have already found the dealer that sold the guy this gun. Someone on Free Republic linked it:http://www.black-rifles.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=19283&st=40&p=195862&#entry195862
Don't know if its legit or not but that you all might find it interesting.

Yes I know. That's what I mean when I ask what kind of guy must he be?
He intentionally left that to appear as though it belonged to the shooter.

He is reported to be one of the victims... poor guy.
