i demand indian govt. to revive the old fashioned arms act and to follow US laws in this regard.Though the above incident happened its very rare to happen.In india to obtain a pistol is a big headache.Its raising concern among indians about their self defence.

Arey chup!!!! Mr. Raj, I think you are also a psycho. How can you talk like a fool thinking about buying a pistol when there is a tragedy happened due to its bloody use. If you want to die....there are many ways but don't hurt others. Think like a man. Not like a Egoistic coward. Have a heart. You can't even make a dead live how can you think of buying a pistol. Sell garam chai on platform if you want to make a living. Nothing comes for free. I expect you to have a nice life and good senses.

yeah right. it is impossible for an ordinary law abiding guy to get a gun in india, but not a problem for criminals or certain kind of people (whom the govt, read bearucrats, can betow ). yep orinary guys in india cannot be trusted with guns, they might actually use them to protect themselves and their families, how dangerous !!

gun culture is the last thing india needs. more guns - more stupid people turning them to innocent people. removing guns wont remove stupid people, it just removes the killing part harder. no mass murders, no such incidents.
It is defenitely shocking to hear this incident.My condolences to the bereaved family.But more shocking is to know that,a weapon can be taken into highly secure University campus and on top of that the weapon gets into the hands of student who is not even the citizen of USA.I preseume to get a gun in america is a cake walk.HATS OF TO THE AMERICANS.

I am sorry Mr. Murali please read the News Carefully He was US green Card Holder...That means he was at par wid citizen.. Do you if NAyone can STOP anyone from taking weapons in Indian Universities?? Do you know every you can find same things in Indian Hostels in UP and else where period.. dont compare and just bash
Ya, its sad... But then it shows where the country is heading towards.. With George W Bush busy in destroying other nations, the countyr has become crammed with maniacs and psychos who kill people without a reason..
And the so called government just talks skyscrapers and gives its condolances only to wait for another maniac act.
Mr. Bush, please stop bothering other nations and look after your own country. So the saying goes, "What you sow, you reap."

Spot on dear friend. America should now concentrate on its own internal security rather then hunting for WMDs in other nations.
It is really macabre to say the least!2 of our friends from India have also become the victim. We all r deeply saddened by the perishing of these young lives who could have brought so much of knowledge and wherwithall to us ! May their soul rest in eternal peace and let the perpretator of such henious crime be given an exemplary punishment.
Hi Hokies (Virginia Techies).... I am a Virginia tech Alumni, working in Bangalore now... Norris Hall was next to my department only..I am deeply saddened by this barbaric act of inhumanity... my heart is full of pain thinking of one of the most beautiful campuses in the world in pain and sorrow... May all the fellow Hokies (Virginia Techies) including our indian fellows, who lost their lives get peace in Heaven and the injured ones recover fast.. You are in my thoughts and prayers... Dr. Nitin K. Goel (ngoel@vt.edu)
Please also spare a thot for the 2 young farmers who committed suicide in Vidharbha due to poverty. They will not even get any relief from anyone or any ex-gratia from the govt. They leave their poor families behind and a dark future.

Get a grip on reality. Watch movies like Hotel Rwanda and Shooting Dogs to see what the white westerners think of black as well as brown people. One guy died in US and the government is bending over backwards to give plane tickets, passports to relatives.
The modern world is going in alarming speed like the guns v have invented. the ethics and the human considerations are lost. the american violent movies on and off of the big and small screens have caused this type of human made tragedy- americans should wake up atleast now !
This is very tragic. The civilized world is moving ahead, but the youngsters are loosing temper and behaving like animals. The Americans are responsible to show such violence on the screen, small screen. this is the prize one has to pay !
It is the duty of US to protect innocent civilians in their territory (especially foreign students). If US does not compensate them they should be hauled before international court of justice.
