Inefficient and improper use of military weapons on campus can not be tolerated. If the gunman survived, he'd have to repeat the course.

I deleted my posts because they were meant as humour in a situation which became too serious for it.

However I'll tag on to Harld's post and say Yes, Yes, students must be equipped with handguns and laptops going forward.
This is absolute proof we need more guns in the hands of the people.

From January 31, 2006:

"House Bill 1572 didn't get through the House Committee on Militia, Police and Public Safety. It died Monday in the subcommittee stage, the first of several hurdles bills must overcome before becoming laws.

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."

Which one...
I suppose you meant arming all faculty members just in case this happens and hoping none of them are ever pissed off at the school, a colleage, employee, or student enough to fly off the handle.

In the interim you have a Va Tech with weapons.

I'm sure the investigation will show this nutjob could've been helped or stopped before going crazy.

Sure...

Remove all academic pressure on students.

Put all students on drugs designed to control and level their moods.

Prophylactic anti-depressants just in case they're depressed.

Weekly counseling sessions to make sure they're "in touch" with their feelings and, more importantly, to evaluate them to make sure they're not a danger to themselves or others...

No....but allowing those who so desire to be armed.

No, no no ...
it should seem obvious that if EVERY FIREARM is removed from EVERYONE in the US, there would have been NO such happening. This means that simply outlawing ALL firearms is the solution.
