Well, PVS is about the only person who could possibly insert a news article the right way.

what is it with suburban kids and shooting people at college just cause they're depressed.

It was a 27-year old kid as per police reports who stopped taking his medication and became erratic over the past 2 weeks and bought the guns 6 days ago.

You never see this in California. 131

We kill each other in the streets. 😐

I wonder what it is that causes people to do these manic things, it isn´t exactly normal behavior is it, or is it?

We may consider ourselves an advanced race, with our technology and all, but is the "animal" still within us.

Maybe when the Aliens, other beings, "Gods of old" or whatever, bio engineered us to become more intelligent and like them, probably by mixing thier genes/dna with ours or something like that. They left a door open some where, where the animal lunatic urge still comes through in certian situations. Causing us, now advanced beings to kill others on mass.

So you're saying that our violent reations are the symptoms of alien and human dna.

Who's the guy you're getting this from again? Because it sounds like he "borrowed" a little bit from H.P. Lovecraft.

Gods of old? Bio-engineering? Mixing DNA? Door to animal lunatic urge? 😘

It's called evolution. we only live on survival instincts when we have to.

Some people have work to do on their senses of humor.

You know my friend Christy, right? She goes to UIUC, but her dad teaches at NIU. She was freaking out yesterday over this. And a bunch of people I know from ACen staff go there as well. Thankfully everyone was away from there and okay.

And no, this isn't normal behaviour, but as was mentioned, the guy wasn't exactly normal, mentally. He was supposed to be taking meds and went off them. So he wasn't exactly in a 'normaly' state of mind.

Back in my day. This shiite didn't really happen. All we did was use our hands and legs and maybe a baseball bat or knife. Nowadays all you see is some nutjob just shoot up schools because he has problems or lost his girlfriend or some other frakkin excuse. I'm glad this guy is dead. I have no idea why he went off his meds, but that isn't an excuse either to what he did.

I freaked out when this happend, my half brother just graduated from there about a year and a half ago, and his half brother goes there currently, and no one could get ahold of him for hours after the shooting. Today when the gunman's name was released, my brother found out that it was the kid who lived in the dorm room next to him his sophmore year, i saw the kid when i went and visited him. i just can't belive how much stuff like this is going on lately.

2 hours away or less from me. Pretty bad.

But seriously, you gotta assume for every million or so non-physcopathic killers, theres always one out there. Always been that way, same as any murders.

Uh....yeah. Because batting or knifing someone for those reasons isn't insane. 🙄

The guy certainly shouldn't have gone off his medication, no matter the reason, but I also wouldn't wish death upon him or be glad for his death.

You misinterpreted what I said. When I was in Junior High and High School people protected themselves sometimes using a ball bat or a knife. They're were always bullies, people breaking up with their significant other and yet they didn't return back to school and shoot it up or take said ball bat and try to take people's heads off. Thats all you see nowadays is someone shooting up schools. Times really have changed. Sad really that these things continue to happen.

What is it with 'urban' kids who shoot each other because they stepped on their shoes or insulted their mamas.

Or wore the wrong color.
