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."

you can't script better stuff than that. I mean, how's that shoe leather tasting?

I agree with you, but sadly, they are only going to call for MORE gun control to keep this from happening again. When in reality ONE student with a spine (preferably with a gun) could have stopped this

On hearing of this story, my first thought was "what would ONE student with ANY firearm have done to reduce this?"

Sadly firearms aren't allowed on campuses per state law.

The school I work for (Private Univ) doesn't have a weapons policy that I've been able to find. [EDIT: found that firearms nor pneumatic guns are allowed on campus by students. Nothing for faculty/staff] I know the dean has said he's held firearms for various students in his dorm.

What really amazes me is that there's nearly two hours between the shootings and nobody stopped the bugger while he made his way across campus!
