Come to VT, we gettin shootings and bomb threats
By VINNY VT on 04-16-2007 9:25 AM

So there is another shooting on campus this morning.  Check cnn, but in the last week we've had two bomb threats also, and in the beginning of the year a guy broke out of jail and ran lose on campus.  All this happening as HS seniors and their families come to tech to check out the school. 

classes cancelled, poker all day

No not on campus, I have friends that are and they're all just locked in their rooms, cops everywhere of course.  Pretty fucked up indeed.  This must be the same guy that had the bomb threats last week.  Not really sure why CNN is interviewing all of these random students.  They all just did the same thing and ran (smart) but they're just not saying anything.  Here emails we got from VT.

1)  A gunman is loose on campus.  Stay in buildings until further notice.  Stay away from all windows

2) Virginia Tech has canceled all classes. Those on campus are asked to remain where there are, lock their doors and stay away from windows. Persons off campus are asked not to come to campus.

3) In addition to an earlier shooting today in West Ambler Johnston, there has been a multiple shooting with multiple victims in Norris Hall.

Police and EMS are on the scene.

Police have one shooter in custody and as part of routine police procedure, they continue to search for a second shooter.

All people in university buildings are required to stay inside until further notice.

All entrances to campus are closed.

And yes there are a few flurries, good ole bleaksburg

the first person shot was in the same dorm I used to live in
