I was listening to the radio today and one commentator said something that was so interesting...these people had their whooooole lives ahead of them! they weren't bums or druggies or prostitutes (not to value one persons life over another) but they were doing some of the toughest work and had futures that were so bright. The African American RA that was shot first was a TRIPLE MAJOR and going to do his phd in psychology...this fact about how accomplished they were and how they were attending one of the most known schools in the US just adds to the trauama I know and they were only a few weeks away from graduation.. ya3ni this is soooo sad  this is the african american guy.. Interview with friends of RyanRyan Clark, 22, from Martinez, Ga., a biology, English and psychology major. He was a resident adviser on the fourth floor of the dorm where the rampage began. Just a month from graduation, he was a member of the Marching Virginians Band and intended to pursue a PhD in psychology. Called "Stack" by his friends, Clark carried a 4.0 grade-point average, said Vernon Collins, coroner in Columbia County, Ga. "He was just one of the greatest people you could possibly know," Gregory Walton, a friend who graduated last year, said as he fought tears. "He was always smiling, always laughing. I don't think I ever saw him mad in the five years I knew him." Arielle Perlmutter posted on MSNBC.com that she had been friends with Ryan for a decade. "Ryan and I worked at Camp Big Heart, a camp for children and adults with special needs for part of every summer since I was in high school," she posted. "Ryan was one of the most amazing, loving and caring young men I have ever met. He went into every day of camp, trying as it could be, with a smile and a open mind. I rarely, in the years I knew Ryan, saw him frown. "Ryan directed the music/dance program at camp and brought cheer to all the campers around him. He was constantly smiling and dancing, signing and cheering. The campers would gather around Ryan and hug him. We have a picture of a year that Ryan was at camp on his birthday. All of the campers were surrounding him, hugging him, and all you could see of him was his head sticking out above the crowd. They all loved 'Mr. Ryan'. Camp will never be the same and we will all bear the scar of this tragedy for many years to come. Ryan will never be forgotten, and always be missed." Perlmutter, 27 and a teacher in Buford, Ga., later told MSNBC.com that Clark had always wanted to work with kids. “We’d joked about him coming to work at my school, so that we'd be closer." "I don’t think there’s enough words to explain how you feel when someone passes,” she said. "But he was one step above a lot of people." its sad cuz he was coming to HELPPP a female student in the shooting.. |

This is very sad for all the students not only the lebanese . I think this is the result of unnecesssary freedom of gun's obssession. We dont know what kind of brain has this or that obssesor ? time comes to restrict it or more correctly ban it / because of the nonwise rulling politics we are living in an insecure world and everything is expected from anyone .  |

I agree with u flafel..
kids can simply buy guns from K-mart or something with no questions asked..
My mom has actually told me something very interesting.. Imagine if the gunman was an Arab.. not south korean.. Wouldn't the problem be even bigger, and they would've jailed his parents instead of just investegating?? It would've been WAYYYY different.. they would've thought he had something to do with qae3da or something..
I think this cho guy didn't have a really good childhood, and maybe the weird stories he wrote, reflected him in a way.. like he wrote stories that included a lot of violence and sutff about members of the same family.. so maybe he was talking about himself.!

3njd when I found out about the shooting, and the fact that there were 2 lebanese victims. For those that don't know it is the Deadliest US Shooting in our history, it is very tragic, and we are treating it as like 9/11 .. At least my school is, we did many things and sent letters, gave moments of silences, and paid respects. It is really very sad, my whole family was devasted actually, and you would think that I mean a shooting in a state kind of far away, with no known mortalities wouldnt affect you this much, but my mom actually had tears in her eyes as she watched it cnn two days ago. and my dad spent all night watching an interview with the shooters' roomates on cnn bardo.
I just wanted to somehow say sorry for all the victims and there families. 33 deaths [including the shooter] and 15 injuries.
Rabina yi7miko wa yostor 3alaiko.

I know nadz, its a big deal, because the security and police did not shut the college down after the first shooting, b/c there were 2 shootings and a pause between the first and second, and the police actualyl told the students to stay... and didnt take it seriously and their careless fat eating donut like asses caused it to be the Deadliest US shooting ever.....
What makes it so sad is that those lives lost couldve been prevented
