Not when they're trapped in classroom. Anyone can do that. It's like shooting YOU in a barrel.
Well still. They could have charged or something. And I haven't read much about it, but I thought he went to two different buildings.

He did, but he only had a few handguns. You'd think someone would've kicked his a** and saved 30 lives. From what I've read, this guy only stood about 5 ft 5 inches.


You'd go and attack a guy with a pair of handguns? I don't really think this is a matter of stature. Guy with gun > Guy without a gun

Not if it's 15+ vs. 1 5''5 dude with handguns.


But there is absolutely NO coordination. A guy runs into the room unloading clips, you think the people in the room are going to formulate a plan of attack? My thought pattern would be "s**t s**t GET THE FUX OUTA MY WAY!"

Tatsuman, that's really easy to say when you're not standing in front of the guy who's ready to send a bullet straight through the head of the first guy.

@Brizzle: I hear that he was never seen around any girls. Apparently, he left a letter blaming everybody else for everything.

No, but there are different circumstances.
Say dude "A" plays WoW so much that he actually decides to kill someone with a hatchet. For this to happen, one important thing has happened: He has brought the game into sort of a second life. Therefore, he is now a psychopath, and no longer a gamer. This is no longer a game to him

In the case of this guy that used it for training to shoot, he still brought the game into real life and took someone else's while he was shooting up the place.
I guess. Still, I don't know if video games are to blame, here. I mean, maybe he just loved guns. There are a lot of different circumstances. But I don't think this defines him as a psychopath. People can only take so much for so long until they break under the pressure.


Video Games like guns, don't kill people. People kill people.

sure there is the influance.. but the video game didn't put a gun to your face to tell you to kill people. sheeeeeshs. And boooo for Dr. Phil. <__<;;

Apparently most of the pressure was his own creation. He was a loner by choice. People have said that they made attempts to get to know him but he rejected them.
Perhaps they were reaching out in the wrong way? Reaching out to be congratulated for being nice to a loser. I can see how that would miff me more than being alone altogether.

Possibly... but right now, it's impossible to know, at least until some more details are released.

Apparently he hardly ever spoke to even his roommates.

And his reaction to it is horrifically blown out of proportion.

Fortunately, I have a few friends I can trust to help me.
Diving behind a desk would give me a few seconds to get my head together and get a plan made. Then, I'd execute it. It could fail, but hell, at least I tried. And if I died, I'd die a foolish wannabe hero instead of a crouching victim.

Or alive if you just tried running away like a lot of people did.

Sorry if I sound skeptical, Tats, but... meh. I really don't see that happening at all. I'd rather dive behind a desk and hopefully survive, rather than face certain death by attempting some form of pointless heroism.

Its easier to talk that talk than walk the talk. You know all the people he killed had more then 3 bullets in them. Scary. >_<

We really don't know the circumstances. It's impossible for us to know unless we were the person themself.

Do you have your friends in all your classes? And desks aren't impervious to bullets, not to mention if you dive behind it suspiciously, he could just walk over and blow your brains out.

What could possibly justify killing 33 people? The shooter is NOT a victim here. I don't care what torment he went through.
