Video - Hit and Run video from CNN.com
'Like a dog they left him there. Nobody did nothing'
HARTFORD, Connecticut (AP) -- A 78-year-old man is tossed like a rag doll by a hit-and-run driver and lies motionless on a busy city street as car after car goes by. Pedestrians gawk but do nothing. One driver stops briefly but then pulls back into traffic. A man on a scooter slowly circles the victim before zipping away.
The video is pretty shocking and shows people just looking at the poor guy laying on the street bleeding. No one could even be bothered to dial 911 on a phone. No wonder we have to have cameras mounted every place to monitor us.

Left in Aboite has a post that sort of leads me to this insane rambling. I didn't want to use his comment area as my soapbox.
It's not gun control we need, it's police that aren't hidding behind trees and cars, all while wearing body armour. Just like Columbine. All the cops are taking cover while the victims are in there getting shot down. Good job chief, have another doughnut.
The thing is the gun used weren't machine guns or anything crazy. I'm not gun expert, but it seems glock 9mm is pretty easy to get, don't all the rappers have them? All the control in the world wouldn't stop this kind of thing. If you want a gun you can get one. I know a guy that knows a guy, and I bet most people do. They might not admit it. Background checks and bs like that won't stop someone from getting a gun or killing people. If it's not a gun then they go with a homemade bomb strapped to their chest.
The problem isn't gun control, the problem is media coverage. NBC has suck bellow Fox news. (If that is possible) They way they show all the video and pictures and ramblings of that Cho guy. Remember before you go on a killing rampage, send a tape to NBC so they can make you famous after you kill yourself. I bet his parents are so proud, after slaving away in thier dry cleaning buisness so Jr. can go to school and make something of himself, he repays them by becomeing a famous killer. Couldn't NBC wait till the victims bodies were cold before they got there "scoop". I am surprised they let police or FBI look at the package before they started showing it on the air.

BBC NEWS | Americas | Gunman kills 30 at US university
Eye witness accounts
MSN report
Other deadly shootings in US Colleges
Eye witness accounts from the Washington Post
All the Cons and their dear leader Bush want everyone to worry so much about terrorist in Iraq they forget about ol' Al-cracker. Alive and well in places like Virginia. I haven't seen enough information to get on a gun control soapbox. I can't find any news source that says what kind of gun he was carrying. I am sure it's going to be a huge call for gun control and there is already a conspiracy therory on how this was set up by the goverment to get more gun control and security at schools. Every time something bad happens some morons have to make it worse with their stupid conspiracy crap.
One last thing to think about, this is what people in Iraq live with EVERY FUCKING DAY because we thought we could make their lives better. It's very sad, we are all shocked because 32 people were killed by one guy today in just a few hours. This happens about every day in Iraq. We don't even bat a eye anymore. Moral superior my ass.
