There Is NO Place That Is Considered Safe

Everyone is talking about the Virginia Tech tragedy that happened yesterday, and why not? It's an important issue that everyone should know about. Usually, I don't watch the news, but I happened to flip through channels and came across the headlines of Virginia Tech Shooting. So I watched on and listened to the story as it was updated throughout the hour. It's scray to think about the situation if that were to happen here in San Diego. Just imagine being stuck in a building with no way to escape, locked in by none other than the suspect himself, and not knowing what to expect, but the sudden sense of nothing at all, losing air with every bullet entering your body. I'm speechless. I can't believe something like that would ever happen again. The year was going so good until this psychopath decided to take innocent peoples lives and his own. And add to that, the shooter was Asian, and thank God, he wasn't of Filipino descent, but even though, the Asian community will still have a bad reputation.

I walked into my Pyschology class a couple minutes late, but walked into a discussion about none other than the Virginia Tech incident. It's crazy to think about how much time he put into this master plan. We pondered about the fire power that he had equipped, and with all the people that were shot, we came to a conclusion that he had a semi-automatic with lots of ammunition. About 30 or so people were killed, locked in the building as he chained the exits/entrances. What was he thinking? We will soon find out once more information will be provided.

Leading into this horrible mix, we watched a film in class about a killer who goes by the name as Iceman. He was a sadistic murderer killing some 200+ people. It was sickening seeing the pictures that appeared. He killed with no remorse, and to add to that, he felt nothing. No sense of excitement or sadness. The things he does to people, shoot them and make the victim look at him when they die because he wants them to see that he will be the last person they see, and cutting them with a butcher knife. That was the most awful and brutal death ever. How come someone stand chopping a person up? I can't even stand looking at my own puddle of blood. I don't really want to explain more, so possibly if you have the time, rent it. It's called Iceman and the Psychiatrist. It's a HBO original so if you have HBO, catch it when it's on, it's very interesting.

To the victims of the Virginia Tech melee, R.I.P. And to the families of the victims, I can only give my condolenses and my prayers.

There is NO place that is considered safe. It could have happened anywhere. Thank god it wasn't California.
