Shooting Kills 20 29 32 at VA Tech

Allahpundit is following closely. So far the shooter is described as an Asian man in his 20's. No word yet on motive, but the shooter is reported to be dead. Derek O'Dell, a student who was shot in the arm, has his account on MSNBC here.

Here are some AP images Via ABCNEWS. The first image matches Derek O'Dell's description of the shooter. (update this man only matches the desciption and was not the shooter, he was later released).

Hat Tip :Will

It is reported that the man used two 9mm semi auto pistols. No motive is known at this time. Some reports that he was, "looking for his girlfiend," and a bomb threat was made yesterday. We'll update when we know more.

Cell phone video of from the scene here.

Michelle Malkin reports that a bill designed to stop universitys from making rules to prohibit people with a concealed carry permit from bringing their weapons on capus died in Committee last week.

HB 1572, which would have allowed handguns on college campuses, died in subcommittee.

A bill that would have given college students and employees the right to carry handguns on campus died with nary a shot being fired in the General Assembly.

House Bill 1572 didn't get through the House Committee on Militia, Police and Public Safety. It died Monday in the subcommittee stage, the first of several hurdles bills must overcome before becoming laws.

The bill was proposed by Del. Todd Gilbert, R-Shenandoah County, on behalf of the Virginia Citizens Defense League. Gilbert was unavailable Monday and spokesman Gary Frink would not comment on the bill's defeat other than to say the issue was dead for this General Assembly session.

Virginia Tech spokesman Larry Hincker was happy to hear the bill was defeated. "I'm sure the university community is appreciative of the General Assembly's actions because this will help parents, students, faculty and visitors feel safe on our campus."...

...Last spring a Virginia Tech student was disciplined for bringing a handgun to class, despite having a concealed handgun permit. Some gun owners questioned the university's authority, while the Virginia Association of Chiefs of Police came out against the presence of guns on campus.

If you outlaw guns then only outlaws will have guns. So Mr. Hincker, feel safe now? If just a few law abiding citizens had been allowed to carry, maybe a few lives would have been saved.

1 cnn reports the shooter was a filthy gook. typical, just typical. we let these disgusting foreigners on our soil and hand them the keys to the country and wonder when these yellow dogs end up shooting our precious children.

2 Cut the racism man. And the number has risen to 31 or 32.

3 The man in the first picture is obviously not the shooter.

Posted by: John Doe at April 16, 2007 01:35 PM (TmLg9)

4 the man in the first picture looks pretty suspect the cops definately should have shot him.

this is a terrible day

Posted by: Jake Caywood at April 16, 2007 01:39 PM (Nhfns)

5 It is a terrible day but not all Asians are socipathic murderers. Don't offend any Asian readers.

Posted by: John Doe at April 16, 2007 01:40 PM (TmLg9)

6 The death toll is now 32. Why cut the racism? Racism was probably behind the entire event. Great job academia. Don't tell these foreigners/minorities they are lucky to live in America. Brainwash them into thinking they are discriminated against.  Academia. The other Islam.

7 Notice how the MSM feels it can safely identify the shooter as Asian, yet never will they identify the ethnicity of the killer if he's Arab or muslim.  Very revealing.

Posted by: Jesusland Carlos at April 16, 2007 01:46 PM (8e/V4)

8 And be sure not to offend any muslim readers either. Not all are socipatic killers. Their mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers and supporters are quilty of nothing. As the look at the suicide killer's picture, sitting on their mantle, with admiration in their eyes.

Posted by: greyrooster at April 16, 2007 01:47 PM (/s5d9)

9 greyrooster is 110% right. it is good to know there are educated people still out there that can see through the MSM lies and the PC noose around Americas neck.

the problem right now is we are NOT offending anyone we just roll over and cower to these inferior mongrels and suicide killers under the guise of sensitivity.

stand up, call a spade a spade and deal with these animals head on. thats the only way to win.

how much money do you think this yellow dog's family is going to earn sueing VA Tech, the state of Virginia, and the Feds a couple years down the line as they cry racism and inequality?

Posted by: Jake Caywood at April 16, 2007 01:53 PM (Nhfns)

10 Carlos: Bullshit. You can bet they have known who he is when they pulled his wallet from his pocket early this morning. probably contained his drivers license (can't buy automatic pistols without one) and student ID (he knew his way around campus). No way man. They have another reason for not giving more info.

Posted by: greyrooster at April 16, 2007 01:53 PM (/s5d9)

11 The death toll is now reported at 32.

See #6. Don't blame you Kafir. I'm going to get drunk myself. I would like to add that Columbine was not done by foreigners or minorities. Columbine was commited by white kids sick and tired of the academic brainwashing  forced on them. Frustration begot violence.  This shit seems to flow from one extreme to the other. Whites are forced to accept academic bullshit that places anything not white first and minorities are brainwashed into believing they are discriminated against. Academia needs re-education. Please note, makes no difference, Calif, Texas, Miss. W. Virgina. The killing always takes place in an academic setting. Who are they really striking at. People they don't know or an institution that has frustrated them?

13 Risk factor:
Remember the DC sniper, now someone just walks on to a campus and starts shooting.

Hammas, Qods, AQ, others are noticing this.

Over half the FBI have been assigned to terrorists duties, criminal prosecutions are way down.

A reason to keep his ID secret would be if he was of Middle East origin.

They will try and do a compete investigation before anything leaks.

"Asian", covers many countries.

Maybe some "girlfriend" spin going on now.

14 Any reports of mobs burning buddhist temples ?

Posted by: John Ryan at April 16, 2007 02:34 PM (TcoRJ)

15 Note they had two hours to lock down campus and didn't. If they had they migh have been able to prevent the shootings at the second location.

16 Something that makes the "girlfriend" story unlikely...
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/16/us/16cnd-shooting.html?_r=1&hp&oref=slogin
 
"The identification of the gunman was proving difficult because the suspected shooter did not have identification among his effects and was further complicated because of the severity of an apparently self-inflicted wound to the head, according to a federal law enforcement official. He said investigators were trying to trace purchase records for two handguns found near the body. "
 
They will have identification soon, but I am afraid we are not going to like it.

18 Wonder how long it'll be before the media starts blaming violent television shows, movies, and video games for his actions.

Posted by: haffee at April 16, 2007 03:23 PM (JQjo+)

19 I'm trying to figure out how he was able to kill so many people with (supposedly) a pair of 9mm. Plus, a 9mm shot to his face would not make ID impossible. Some other weapon or abnormal ammo would need to be involved here.

probably contained his drivers license (can't buy automatic pistols without one) and student ID (he knew his way around campus)

greyrooster, it is very simple to buy pistols without a license.  Now, if Virginia hadn't blocked the proposed law permitting CC on campus, the death toll would probably be single digits.  But alas, the gun control morons succeeded in disarming an entire campus, making this massacre that much easier.

22 I'm not buying the girlfriend angle for this reason: we don't have a name.  If someone actually knew that "Jackie Chan got his girlfriend Kobe Tai in bed with Marc Davis," then the supposed 'first hand' reports relayed by Dan Riehl would actually have some names attached. The lack of any names in these 'lovers spat' reports makes me doubt them.

Posted by: wooga at April 16, 2007 03:59 PM (t9sT5)

23 got = caught.

I was distracted by that scene between Kobe Tai and Marc Davis. Wow...

Posted by: wooga at April 16, 2007 03:59 PM (t9sT5)

24 Last time I checked, the carrying position demonstrated by the police in photo number 2 was not an authorized one.

Posted by: scouts out at April 16, 2007 04:08 PM (wxWnR)

25 The toll is now 33. 32 victims and the gunman who killed himself.

Posted by: John Doe at April 16, 2007 04:19 PM (TmLg9)

26 "The lack of any names in these 'lovers spat' reports makes me doubt them."


I'd say all names are being withheld due to next of kin notification.  No conspiracy.  You have 32 or 33 dead.  Big checklist.  I imagine it will take some time ot verify everyone has been notified and release the names...

Posted by: Ryan Seagrave at April 16, 2007 04:27 PM (1Xr9i)

28 Where have you been? Anyway, the shooter did not have any ID on him and a fingerprint analysis did not match up so they don't know who he is.
 
And I don't want any race to be discriminated. I was just referring to the Asians because of the shooter being Asian.

31 John Ryan,
People with gun shot wounds /= lying about being shot.
Drunken whore with no evidence of rape = might possibly be lying about rape, so we should investigate to confirm.

Posted by: wooga at April 16, 2007 04:39 PM (t9sT5)

32 Willing to bet that he isn't muslim. They ain't that smart. However, the Europeans refer to middle east muslims as Asian to avoid hurting their feelings. Why? Who knows.
 
 
 
 
Wooga: Where can I buy these automatics with 15 shot clips without ID. I want at least ten. The nearest town  to me is in Louisiana. I have a Ms drivers license and therefore cannot even buy a gun from Academy Sports. Sure would like to buy some. Remember, I'm white and not gang affiliated.

33 K Bear: Don't believe everything you hear. Just remember " I never had sex with that woman, Ms Lewinski, never, not one time".

Posted by: greyrooster at April 16, 2007 04:57 PM (tdfeo)

34 I'm so pissed at the people who think the number of rounds in a clip matters.  He obviously loaded his clips head of time. You get 15 then change clips or you get 30 and change clips.  If you are carrying a bunch of clips against unarmed people it don't matter.  Six or 9 15 or 30. Guns vs unarmed people always wins.  You can hold them with one and reload the other even if it's a six shot revolver.

Posted by: Darth Odie at April 16, 2007 04:58 PM (YHZAl)

35 Darth: He had two of them. No problem at all shooting 30 people if they laid on the floor for him. Somehow people just lie there and hope for mercy. Strange. I'd rush him or at least say something nasty about his mother. Some did escape by jumping out of windows.

Posted by: greyrooster at April 16, 2007 05:11 PM (tdfeo)

36 Where can I buy these automatics with 15 shot clips without ID.

Lots of places in LA, or - for me in SD, I can mosey on over to National City, or even down to TJ (Tijuana, and yes, you can still buy guns there even though Mexico has much stricter gun control than America.  You can buy anything in TJ if you have enough money and the right cab driver.  The harder part is getting stuff back across the border).

Remember, I'm white and not gang affiliated.

greyrooster, then you're SOL. No illegal guns for you.

this piece of shit asian gook that perpetrated this should have never been let in the country. the only justice that can come of this is if his entire family is identified and slaughtered.

those poor white students my heart goes out to their families.

38 Nice. Folks like "Jake Caywood" and "Gary Meadows" are always easy to spot moby trolls.  Try coming up with better fake names that don't scream "latent homosexual looking to stir up trouble."

Gary Meadows: How do you know all the dead students were white? No Latinos, Asians or (God forbid) blacks at Virginia Tech. A school with 26,000 students. I'm the only racist allowed on this blog. Get lost punk!

41 Wooga: My Mexican is going to Nuevo Laredo next week to bring his wife and his daughter back. Maybe, I can get him to sneak some automatics back with him. I mean if he can get himself and two others across the border why not a little hardware? What's the odds. Will I ever see my pickup again? And how do I find a good immigration lawyer.

Posted by: greyrooster at April 16, 2007 06:39 PM (tdfeo)

42 Greyrooster ... "Where can I buy these automatics with 15 shot clips without ID. "  I'm not sure where you can get them, IN YOUR TOWN. Every region has it's own 'markets' for things. If he was in touch a meth distribution ring he could probably have scored fully automatic weapons, and explosives.  people who tell you a criminal needs ID to get a gun are just wrong. They only need ID's to buy them over the counter, like regular people.

47 I'm serious. He's going. I figure the nappy headed hos got Don Imus fired and he made 10,000,000 per year. Therefore, there's an extra $10,000,000 going around. My man only wants $30,000 per year and can out work Imus anyday. Besides, I'm feelings very good for me about helping my friend and you're not going to ruin it.

48 mdmarine,
a "moby toll" is named after the musician/activist Moby.

Primarily, a moby troll is someone, "who purposely posts inflammatory and offensive comments for the purpose of discrediting the blog in question"
