Thanks everyone for asking about me, I am fine, and all of my close friends have been accounted for. Of the 17 names released so far I do not know any of them.
Right now it is just speculation, 3 people I know are missing, but that could just be because of their cell phones not working or other circumstances. We are keeping positive.
I appreciate all the thoughts and prayers from everyone, it was touching to hear from people I hadn't talked to since high school.
The saddest thing I have heard is one of the guys killed was about to graduate with 3 majors, and was an excellent student and resident adviser.
Physically I am fine, mentally and emotionally I am drained, but enraged at the same time. I will probably stay, finish out the semester, and keep those crazy fkers away from the funerals. If you don't know what I'm talking about I made a facebook group to organize students against it.

My heart goes out to all of the victims of yesterdays shooting.
This is a very sad day and time in America when innocent people can't pursue a career or goal without having to worry about some crazy *** M#####f#r taking their lives!!!!! I know everyone has the right to go to college but I'm starting to think that our great Institutions of Higher Learning are going to have to start doing background checks!!!
What the hell is going on, we have SWAT team patrolling high schools, kids have to pass through metal detectors, takes 3 hours to board the ****ing planes, now the college campuses across the country have to be on alert because of of these ****ing idiots. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE!!!!

Fred Phelps and the Westboro Baptist Church plan on picketing (they call it preaching) at the funerals of the fallen. We are organizing to do everything we can to keep that from happening.
If anyone wants to help let me know, we are open to everyone and any suggestions about how to keep them as far away as possible from the services. We have contacted the patriot guard riders that always show up to "out shout" them.

Interesting charachter, totaly unnecessary for him to show up at an event like this. It would be very disrespectful, is there anywhere we can possibly sign up online to petition his group?

Happy little f*ckers and a positive view on life/the future those people have there. -Sarcasm. I hope they aren't allowed and/or wise up and stay away from the funerals or the football team/other VT people put them under too. That sh*t is outrageous. If I was parent and I heard what they are saying and if they did it at my son/daughter's funeral, I honestly could not control my actions.

My thoughts and prayers are with everyone at VT during this time. It is a terrible world we live in when despicable acts of violence have become more and more frequent.
I hope everyone can get organized to keep the loonies away from the funerals.
You were probably thinking about the UT Tower Sniper. Which was previously the deadliest shooting on a University Campus.

I am going to make a suggestion, go to the local Moose, Elk, VFW, KoC and other groups like that, put up a flier and get them involved. The police will likely surround the area they are in to protect them....but you need to get eyes out in the area to spot them comming in or out of the area. If you can at least get a chain of cars to loosely follow them and see where they end up sleeping on the way back hime, that would be bonus.

Shooters name has been revealed.
They just revealed the POS name.
Cho Seung-Hui, 23, a senior from South Korea who was in the English department.
He's from Centreville, VA. Did anyone know this scum of the earth?
He graduated in 2003 from Westfield High School in Fairfax.

Also killed was Ryan Clark, a student from Martinez, Ga., who had several majors and carried a 4.0 grade-point average, said Vernon Collins, coroner in Columbia County, Ga."
