Police are getting a bum rap.

TB — 4/19/2007 4:58:36 AM (archived)

Every sign pointed to the first shooting as being a domestic incident, and their first lead was to some other person, a boyfriend or something. It was an obvious lead. No one thought another person was involved, or could have predicted that this other person would go on and shoot up classrooms.

        The shooter was never committed. - Mary Anne - 4/20/2007 8:19:07 PM

        Yes. Imagine letting a schitzo with a hatred of the rich and rich kids in particular, into a college setting. - The Artist formerly known as Scott Evil - 4/18/2007 10:11:49 PM
        
        It's not right to hate the rich. - ER - 4/19/2007 1:57:05 AM
