The man with the gun is white, slim in build, about 5 feet 9 inches, 50 to 52 years old and has blond hair, police said. He is clean shaven, wearing glasses and a blue-grey shirt with grey or blue jeans.

2 shots fired, no reported injuries. Man is reported to be barricaded in a room, but authorities don't know where in the building at this time, or even if he's still alive.

Some are reported unaccounted-for, but it can't be confirmed. They still have to talk to everyone and make sure that they didn't just leave early or something.

See this post for the newer developments.

This hasn't been a very good week at all in recent American history.

A local station in Houston reports that the gunman killed a hostage, then killed himself. No official word yet.

Edit: Police report that one man was shot and killed, probably during the first minutes of the shooting - Not just now. They also say that the gunman killed himself and had one woman taped up, who is unharmed. It is presumed that the first shot was the hostage shooting, the second was the suicide.

Gunman dead.
One male hostage dead.
One female hostage unharmed.

Well, I can't say I didn't expect more shootings quickly after the VT incident.

I'm with ravnzcroft. If all these psychos see how much attention Cho got, they will probably say "Oh hey! I want that kind of attention too!" or whatever it is that psychos say.

I feel dumb, I live in a suburb from Houston and haven't heard anything about this.

I hate to be an American
Where at most I know I'm screwed.
And I won't forget, the men who died
Who shot and killed themselves
And I'd never stand up
to defend those men
'cause there ain't no doubt
I hate this land
Oh, fuck the USA

That's the dumbest parodic rendition of a song I've probably ever read.

Are you FUCKING kidding me? I am so DAMN sick of these messed up jackasses with guns who decide it would be a nice to kill someone before they die. Why the hell can't they just shove the gun in their mouth, and pull the trigger when they even consider doing some messed up, disgusting shit like this? I am so sick of these scumbag jackasses, I don't get how someone could just do something like this.... just wake up one morning and decide to go kill someone, it's so messed up; just like this fucking world....

Aww, c'mon guys. He was just curious.
Hell, I'd want to meet the astronaut monkies too.

I also think it'd be neat if the centrifuge was means of capital punishment.
I wonder how you'd die? Suffocation? Burst veins? Lack of blood because your heart can't keep up?
Kinda graphic... but it'd be hella fun for the first few seconds.

Wee desu!
Vomit desu!
*dead* desu!

Not a very good week indeed. Seriously, stuff like this just sucks for everything but seems to be an unfortunate part of life that's not going away.

Everything this week would make me absolutely depressed if I wouldn't have had fun in a hot tub with my friends last night while listening to Year Zero. I encourage everyone else to gogogo and do the same.

Yesterday was my birthday, that gives me the right to post a shitty song.

Yes, life appears to be sucking quite a lot now. But then, look back through history: This time has a lot of bad occurances.

Jeez America's crimes are going crazy lately.
I hope it all calms down, may those who have been lost rest in peace, and lets hope these acts don't continue.

I am wondering if there is something going on now, first Virgina Tech, then NASA. I think someone is trying to scare all of the United States.
But thats just what I think.
