Va. Tech Shootings

Wow 32 people died in this rampage. The worst in massacre in this country's history. I am a little surprised that the school officials didn't get the entire school on lock down regardless of what they thought after the first shooting.
There was a man with a gun in Dayton the other day and the police locked down a couple of blocks worth of buildings and businesses until it was resolved.
So why in the hell didn't they do a better job of letting the students know what was going on. On the news tonight they said that the school had emailed the students telling them about it. Do they not have an intercom system in the school??
I know that you can't always predict what is going to happen so it is very hard to prepare for something like this. But since all of the terrorist talk and everybody is beefing up there security they should have had a better protocol to handle this.
I can guarantee that every other school in the country should learn from this and develop some sort of system to be better prepared. Unfortunately there has to be one example for others to learn the mistake.
My deepest condolences go out to all of the departed and there families. Those who were injured I hope a speedy recovery to you all.
Let us always be prepared for the worst, even if nothing happens.
