Update On The Va. Tech. Shooter!

Source: Chicago Sun Times

I just had a feeling this story would send a little business our way...
Authorities were investigating whether the gunman who killed 32 people on the Virginia Tech campus in the deadliest shooting rampage in U.S. history was a Chinese man who arrived in the United States last year on a student visa.

The 24-year-old man arrived in San Francisco on United Airlines on Aug. 7 on a visa issued in Shanghai, the source said. Investigators have not linked him to any terrorist groups, the source said.

Police believe three bomb threats on the campus last week may have been attempts by the man to test the campus’ security response, the source said.

The exits to the buildings where the shootings occurred were chained by the shooter, the source said.
Though it appears to have entered the 'memory hole' let's recall that "experts" assured us this morning that this had nothing to do with terrorism.

***UPDATE***

I'm not saying this does have anything to do with terrorism, it occurred to me I should make my point a little more clear. All I'm saying is there are several elements here that could, could appear like the work of a terrorist, chaining the door, multiple weapons, possibly pre-testing security. Again, not saying it is, simply that it could be and I would love our nations law enforcement agencies to stop assuring us something isn't terrorism when they cannot possibly know that to be true.
