Not really. This could happen anywhere. An attack happened in Columbine, but everyone still went to high school. There were Sniper shootings in DC, but people still had to go on living. It just gives a realness to the issue of mortality. This whole incident made me think about if I died today, what would I leave behind, and unfortunately I wouldn't leave anything significantly good. This whole incident helped me realize that death is something that we as individuals can in no way control. The incident at VA Tech is totally isolated and I hope to God that nothing like this happens anywhere else in America. And I thank God that we don't witness events like this everyday, like the people in Iraq and other hostile countries do.

No, I don't let an incident like that scare me off or else if we were all aware of history we probably wouldn't leave our homes if that. We can't live in a cave you know? However, I am not the biggest on clubbing. I've literally clubbed about 5 times since I've turn 18. I don't want to risk a man getting stupid or not making it home because of a drunk driver. So there's paranoia there...

No more than I am scared to go to the mall, supermarket, etc. Violence can happen anywhere at anytime. No reason to stop living life.

No. Just more aware of my surroundings. That was a random act of violence. It could happen at a supermarket or the movie theather.
