VT Shooting

Many interesting points were told in this article that I was unaware of. I liked how she went into more detail about the shooting to give us all a better perspective on really how bad it was. Just thinking about it 33 people killed in a shooting by a inexperience student is just mind boggling. I couldn't imagine what kind of gun was used, how many people were in the class rooms, and how long this crisis went on for. I'm not sure why CNN is crowing this man that captured brief video footage on his cell phone and calling him a hero. Yes it certainly is useful video and he was very courage for staying on the scene. Some would call him crazy and others stupid but realistically he might have wanted to be a "hero". Personally, recording this scene on my cell phone would be that last thing on my mind.
