Remember this, because I have a feeling this information will "disappear" shortly, it is already being ignored...

BLACKSBURG, Va. -- A shooting at a Virginia Tech dorm Monday left one person dead and one wounded, a state government official with knowledge of the case told The Associated Press.
A government official with knowledge of the shooting said the gunman had been arrested.

Now, I can understand if witnesses said "an Asian man" did the shooting, and in the chaos and confusion the nearest Asian man was grabbed...
BUT, we aren't hearing ANYTHING about the "mistake", about the arrested guy being released, about any statement he might have made regarding his arrest... Things which WOULD be newsworthy items to report.
BUT, we have a "main stream news source" claiming "A government official with knowledge of the shooting" reporting the shooter had been arrested. Not reporting "a suspect has been arrested", not reporting "we have someone in custody who we are looking at", but "THE GUNMAN" had been ARRESTED.
Early reports indicated that there were TWO SUSPECTS in this incident.
When you combine these early reports with the fact that the FIRST shooting took place at about 7:!5 am, then there is a lag time of a couple hours, and then the SECOND shooting taking place about 9:30, a half mile away, and supposedly the gunman (Cho) spent that lag time going to the PO to mail videos and pics to NBC (of all places), it looks like we really are NOT getting the "full scoop" here.
I'm not even going to go into the fact that the school and police bungled this thing so badly - first shooting, dorm locked down, no information given to the rest of the community, "lock down lifted" then the shootings recommence, police late late LATE on scene, hiding behind trees wasting time etc, coupled with the fact that early in the school year the same campus experienced a SHOOTING (in which a police officer DIED), combined with the fact that Friday the whole place was CRAWLING with law enforcement due to SEVERAL bomb threats that had been made...
I heard from a student on the campus that many of the local police officers are EXTREMELY UPSET because they were commanded to WAIT until a FEDERAL agency shmuck showed up on scene to "handle the incident"...
And to top it all off, the neo-commies are starting to make their incessant bleating for "gun control"... despite the fact that Virginia Tech HAD GUN CONTROL IN PLACE... which is WHY nobody was able to do ANYTHING except DIE at the hands of a mass murderer.
Oh, and nevermind the fact that in 2002 at another college, a shooter went on a rampage and was SHOT BY STUDENTS before he killed more than 2 or 3 people...
