VTech Shooting

**Alpha** · 04-18-2007

The media has been totally saturated since this horrible incident occurred....the largerst mass shooting in US history.

Problem, Reaction, Solution

What's behind this incident and the media coverage of it? How did a gunman shoot 2 poor victims first and then return to kill a total of 33?

Now some sources are attempting to describe this as a "terrorist attack" with the alleged "perp" being of Islamic faith.

What really caused this to happen and why? .....a mind controlled "sleeper", some mentally unstable and angry person/s, an act of some revenge, a precursor or "problem, reaction, solution" to push for gun control ...other????

What do you think?

IMO this was the "false flag" attack that those crazy conspiracy theorists have been warning about. They thought it would be Bin Laden and his gang of fanatics but that wasn't necessary; we have a nice home-grown "lone gunman" to do the deed. Now we obviously need more restrictive laws and controls on everyone to prevent future incidents. So how soon will we see more controls on movement (access to "sensitive" areas only to those granted permission to be there) and draconian gun laws. All to "protect the children" of course.

And yes, Alpha, I do believe Cho was controlled. Maybe I'm being paranoid...

Just listened to those songs and don't feel any control. Now for some reason I must load all my guns and shoot all those evil aliens I suddenly see in the street...

Twinkle twinkle litttle star, a key for the "sleepers".

Mebbe I am crazy, but the killer has ties to Islam, lived in D.C..

Do a search on google about this and then tell me I am a total nut. ABCDEFG, same tune! Brainwashing at the highest level."Problem, Reaction, Solution".

Create enough chaos, then pass legislation to pass gun laws, just like the Nazi's did against the Jews.

We all know what happened to them. Defenless, and dead!

And here's what they slipped in when nobody was looking.

Court Upholds Ban on Abortion Procedure
Supreme Court says Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act does not violate constitutional rights.
The Supreme Court today narrowly upheld a nationwide ban on a controversial abortion procedure, handing a major victory to President Bush and his social conservative allies.

In a 5-4 vote, the court ruled that the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act, which Bush signed into law in 2003, does not violate a woman's right to have an abortion under the court's landmark 1973 ruling in Roe v. Wade.

This post is not intended to start an abortion debate but merely to flag the slimey way things are done when we are all "conveniently" preoccupied.

Olbermann interviewed the President of NBC tonight and the guy referred to the shooter as "they", he quickly corrected himself and said "him". A slip maybe? He also said that there would be some limitations on what they would release to the rest of the media regarding the manifesto that was sent to NBC earlier today by the killer.

SAN DIEGO (AP) - A man who allegedly threatened a school attack in Yuba City that would dwarf the Virginia Tech attacks turned himself in, ending a manhunt that prompted school districts in two cities to tighten security, authorities said.

Several schools canceled classes or evacuated students Thursday and at least a dozen people were arrested or under investigation as a wave of campus threats that started soon after the Virginia Tech shootings spread across the country.

In Yuba City, a 28-year-old man told a pastor Wednesday night that "he had some sort of explosive device and he was going to make the incident at Virginia Tech look mild by comparison," Sutter County Sheriff Jim Denney said.

The man surrendered without incident at the sheriff's department around 9:30 p.m. Thursday, shortly after his parents called authorities to tell them he would turn himself in, Denney said. The man was booked on suspicion of making criminal threats and making felony threats while on bail on a previous charge.

Officials canceled classes and activities for Friday at school districts in Yuba and Sutter counties and at Yuba College.

Nationwide, many of the threats - which spread in the time it takes to make a phone call or post a message on the Internet - referred to Monday's massacre in Blacksburg, Va., in which gunman Cho Seung-Hui killed 32 people and himself, or the 1999 Columbine High School killings, authorities said. Friday is the eighth anniversary of the Columbine attacks.

In San Diego, a Web designer was charged with posting on his own site a bogus threat to kill 50 San Diego State University students, then alerting a TV station to try to draw publicity, the FBI said.

Cristobal Fernando Gonzalez, 32, is charged with one felony count of making a threatening communication through the Internet. He was being held on $30,000 bail.

His parents said outside the federal courthouse that he was remorseful. "I hope it doesn't ruin his future," said his mother, Diana Gomez.

In Commerce City, Colo., a Denver suburb about 190 miles from Columbine, a 13-year-old boy stood up in class and said he had a bomb, forcing the evacuation of Kearney Middle School and the lockdown of 13 other Adams County schools, district spokesman John Albright said.

"In his personal effects we found duct tape, a bicycle pump and a couple things that were potentially suspicious," Albright said. "And in his locker they found a box all duct-taped up."

The boy was taken into custody and he told police where they could find "the bomb," which turned out to be a fake, police said.

In Michigan, police said they arrested a former Kalamazoo Valley Community College student who posted Internet messages praising the Virginia Tech shooting. Officials closed the college's two campuses through the weekend.

The 26-year-old man "said his intent was just to evoke a response from other people," sheriff's Lt. Terry VanStreain said. "He got a response from us, I guarantee you that."

Classes at the University of Nevada, Reno, were canceled Thursday night after police received reports that a man made threats referencing the Virginia Tech shootings. Michael James Sheriff, 27, was arrested in Carson City on a probation violation related to a conviction for carrying a concealed weapon.

Officials said Sheriff sent a text message Thursday to a relative saying "the Korean is my hero." He also allegedly told another relative Wednesday that he would be unavailable for the next few days because he would be on a "mission," police said.

Family members contacted authorities expressing concern about Sheriff, who served in the Iraq war and had been treated for post traumatic stress disorder and mental illness, police said

In Camarillo, Calif., a freshman at California State University, Channel Islands, was arrested after a fellow student reported seeing a note on her Facebook.com page that said she planned a "school shooting spree."

Alisha Salazar, 18, was booked for investigation of making criminal threats and was being held at the Ventura County Jail on $20,000 bail, authorities said.

School officials said her online message read: "Alisha Salazar is going on a ... school shooting spree! Watch out kiddies, better hide under that desk! hahaha," the statement said.

Campus police questioned Salazar and searched her dormitory room before transferring her to sheriff's custody, said campus spokeswoman Ceal Potts.

Salazar's statements to police were not released, and it was not known whether she has retained an attorney, Potts said.

Among other arrests and school scares Thursday:

- A high school student in Federal Way, Wash., near Seattle, was arrested after authorities said he brought three loaded guns and extra ammunition.

- A 20-year-old man in Bismarck, N.D., was charged with saying on a blog that the Virginia Tech massacre was funny and that he had plans for a school shooting rampage.

- A high school student in Fort Smith, Ark., was arrested after police said he scrawled a message on a classroom desk saying he wanted to "be a hero" like Cho.

- In St. Augustine, Fla., a 14-year-old high school student was charged with threatening in an e-mail between friends to top the Virginia Tech massacre by killing 100 people, a sheriff's spokesman said.

Something is very fishy!

**Mcnowhere** · 04-20-2007

What suspect? Cho killed himself before the cops got to him.

My brain ain't computing this. I would like to hear your take on this CB if you feel like expounding?

**Judee** · 04-20-2007

Sounds like the guy being arrested in the photo was just an innocent party??? Probably was arrested based on witness ID reports. There is a certain similarity.

Makes sense to me.

**lastconundrum** · 04-20-2007

CB you may be right. Look at the left ear of "Cho" and the guy being cuffed; they both have the same indentation. Different hair, though.

Now people are being arrested for expressing "violent opinions". Can't let "psychopaths" endanger society. Watch what you say.

Do you believe that there are parallel worlds? This could have been true...

In a better world...

When deranged gunman Seung-Hui Cho entered the Virginia Tech classroom he never expected what would happen next.

"He pulled out a gun and started shooting", one student said. "Thank goodness Ms Periwinkle was there".

Pricilla Periwinkle, a 60 year old grandmother, reached into her purse, pulled out her legally registered 44 Magnum and shot Cho 4 times, killing him instantly.

One student was slightly wounded and was treated and released from hospital.

When asked later why she shot Cho with a 44 Magnum, she said "That's because they don't make a 45 Magnum. Now get that microphone out of my face, sonny, or I'll put it where the sun don't shine."

The Board of Directors of Virginia Tech is considering following the example of Kennesaw, Georgia, the town that requires every household to keep and maintain a firearm. Voting will be held tomorrow.
