The Story Starts to Stink

Such as the fact that just one guy supposedly killed 32 victims with a HANDGUN. Think about it-- if he was shooting at close range, why on earth didn't anyone tackle him? If he was shooting from a distance, how on earth did he get off so many shots to kill and injure several dozen people? A Glock 9mm carries 17 rounds, he must have had to reload multiple times.

There are of course rumors of a second shooter.

It's also more than a bit odd that this deranged English major official shooter killed several engineering professors and students.

From an acquaintance:

"NPR is on right now and I'm listening about the shootings in Virginia. Seems most of them took place in the engineering department. They were interviewing a Professor Hendricks; an assistant professor from that department and the interviewer asked him if he could think of any political motivation for the shootings, if anything controversial was studied there and he said "oh heavens no!" and then he was asked what they study and he said fluid mechanics, and how airplanes fly..."

Here's one specific thing they work on at "Techsburg":

Tech faculty members seem glad to have guidelines. One is Wing Ng, an endowed professor of mechanical engineering. He has a 2-year-old research development business called Technology in Blacksburg — Techsburg for short — that employs 15 people, mostly students and former students. It’s best known for the miniature remote control airplane he developed for military and rescue reconnaissance. "I feel that my business adds depth and credibility to my teaching role. I am a practicing engineer as well as a researcher," Ng says.

It's not yet clear if Ng was a victim.

Further:

Among the dead in Monday's shooting were professors Liviu Librescu and Kevin Granata, said Ishwar K. Puri, the head of the engineering science and mechanics department. Librescu, an Israeli, was born in Romania and was known internationally for his research in aeronautical engineering, Puri wrote in an e-mail to the Associated Press.
