I would just like to know... This guy had the chance to kill 30 people because there was no alarm or warning to any students... and innocent people died because of this lack of attention to a obvious serious issue.
This stupid had over two hours to plan his second attack... and according to the news... if he would not have killed him self... more people could have died.
It just makes me very upset to see how can anyone not pay attention to a double murder and think of it as a serious issue to set the alarms... PEOPLE DIED BECAUSE THE STUPIDITY OF A FEW

I've heard the news people asking this very question, and it's an easy one to ask with the hindsight that they have. But I'm sure at the time that they considered this to be a single murder. The police were so busy investigating this that the second event took everyone by surprise.
News people always start looking for someone to blame when some unimaginable event like this happens. I feel nothing but sorrow for the officials of the school. Keep this up and the next thing you know, our college campuses will be more like prisons than places for higher learning.
No one ever knows where some nut will strike. If you have to point a finger at someone, blame people who make it so easy for nuts like these to get their hands on guns. I sure don't want a policeman in every classroom!

He shot his girlfriend, the authorities had every reason to assume this was a domestic. You can't shut down an entire university due to one domestic shooting. There is no way to predict that he was a mad gunman. Holy cow what if things were shut down every time a gun was fired. The nation would come to a stand still.

No, law enforcement reacted to what they perceived was an isolated incident. Shootings like that happened everyday. They did their job. The police had no way of knowing such a massacre would subsequently occur. The shooter was a stone-cold killer, incredible kill rate, no one could have predicted that.

I'm willing to bet that you would have reacted in much the same way as the school officials did.
That is, unless you have a psychic link with the gunman and can accurately predict his every move..
No? Yeah, I didn't think so.

Definitely error in judgement and poor assumption. Ignorance . I am equally upset. If no measures taken, such killings will happen again in the future. Next time not 33 but more people will get killed.
I am lost of words...........angry, sad, tears, why ? why ? why ?
33 young and talented previous lifes lost............

It seems to have been an error in judgment, but they thought he had just murdered his girlfriend and a man, and he was finished and wouldn't be back. In 99.9999% of cases they would have been right. This time they were wrong.

Stop listen to the liberal news. Can you walk outside right now and point out one man out of 26,000 who has a gun? Give it a rest
