I read the news on the Internet just now. 31 people are dead after a massacre shooting at Virginia Tech. I bet very few people do not know about it. It is breaking news and it will be on the news channels. This also went for the Salmonella in the Pet Food, etc., and Salmonella in the Peanut Butter.

news.yahoo.com/AP - 8 minutes ago BLACKSBURG, Va. - A gunman opened fire in a Virginia Tech dorm and then, two hours later, shot up a classroom across campus Monday, killing 32 people in the deadliest shooting rampage in U.S. history. The gunman committed suicide, bringing the death toll to 33. This kind of news is so upsetting. My thoughts and prayers go out to the victims and their loved ones. Take the Salmonella reports seriously. Steven and I ended up with 2 jars of the peanut butter that was recalled. Due to the scare and deaths with animal food, we've had to go out and completely change everything for our fur babies. I'm terrified of giving them anything. I check the list on menufoods.com all the time. It's just awful.

i just heard about the shooting on my way home from work. its so sad! i feel for all the families that have lost their loved ones. how sad..and the guy man is dead too.
as for the peanut butter..its not on my diet..but its also not the brand i would buy anyway. but its scary!
i took the pet food thing VERY seriously! i feed my old dog soft food and was really scared. but the brand i buy wasn't one of them. thank god! cause she is part of my family and i would hate to think that what i was feeding her was poisoning her.

Yes that is right. 32 are dead and 15 are wounded. The number of the dead is 33 counting the dead gunman. They will be talking about this for sometime maybe for a long good while.

Yes and now they have updates. They now reveal the identity of the gunman. I can only say Cho(Pronounced Joh) it is a Korean name. I can only remember Cho. The rest is not that easily pronounced. He and his family came to the U.S. for a better life. Now they have the footage that Cho sent to NBC News on the Internet. I just saw it. Crazyness is still going on. Not as bad though. Prayers are needed right now. They also have a timeline of the Virginia Tech Massacre on the Internet. I just saw it. However, it is hard for me to see everything because of slow dial-up. I sometimes hate my computer.

i personally feel that nbc shouldnt have released the video and photos he made. i think it will just be more painful for the families that lost a loved on. i know if i had been one, i wouldnt want to see it everywhere.

I know. It was terrible. All those photos of Cho and that tape. It was bad. Very bad. I saw that on the Internet that they said that looking at Cho's tapes were too painful.
