22 or 33?
 

ST says 22, so sad, why allow gun in the first place.
 

33? wow!? is that a new record?

someone must keep track of these things
 

so is it 22 or 33?
local news (BBC) says 33...
Foreign newspaper (ST) says 22...
who is correct? :confused:
 

Managed to contact my friend as soon as I woke up this morning. He's alright but his friend was one of those shot and is currently in ICU...

BBC is not the local news agency. It happend in US not UK.

The latest CNN report stated 33 dead including the gunman. I believe this is the most accurate current figure.
 

ST reported 22 in the papers cos it was still early. People died later, so now higher numbers. Maybe check STi?
 

anyone knows why ?

Guns are illegal on Virginia Tech's grounds. Didn't do anything.

Gun control isn't the solution to the problem anyway. Culture and demographics play a much bigger part. Sweden and the Netherlands are two countries relatively lax with gun control, yet have much lower crime rates than in the US.
