I just got home from there. We heard someone had a gun and slowly began to panic a bit. We were led in various directions trying to find somewhere to go. Some teachers and staff members led us around and brought us to the exit on Sherbrooke street, where I heard several shots go off. We stayed in that area for a bit when police began to tape the area off. More gunshots were fired a bit later. Overall just scariness and a lot of traffic, cop cars, and ambulances downtown. I'm hoping that I don't know any of the victims.

RIP to the ones killed in this tragedy. I don't know anyone directly who was hurt, but I know people who know people who were injured by shots.

jenderfazz, do you go to Dawson?

Someone call Michael Moore.

On a more serious note, where did he get those guns from? Don't Canucks have a ban on them or something?

That's really scary. I would have thought colleges would be pretty much immune from those kinds of things, since nobody's forcing you to go or anything and puberty is over.

Last report I heard was 2 deads (a girl+the shooter) and 19 injured I think.

That's a really sad story...

That sucks, i know what it feels like when there are people that you know at a tragedy like this.

When i was in primary school i knew a number of people from Dunblane primary, and, fortunatly none of them were hurt. This world is full of sick wierdo's

Getting so tired of all these psychopaths/sociopaths running free in society. If only there were a way to stop this kind of thing from ever happening again.

Yeah, I do go there, on my third year. Everyone I know is safe and I'm thankful for that. It's surreal.

I don't think it's possible. The larger a society gets, the more alone everybody is. Think about it. In a small town in the South or something, everybody knows eachother. You go to New York, and everybody's a stranger.

That just causes more stress. Too much stress on an unstable mind...

At least those people are always bad shots.

But it's just weird that it happened on a college campus.

It's the 3rd time that there is a shooting in a Montreal's school.

(polytechnique 14 women dead, Concordia 4 dead and Dawson 2 dead, so far)

After Polytechnique they put some very strict laws about fire gun, but since then there was 2 others shooting.

I don't think it could be stopped.
