[QUOTE="ups_vette, post: 187525, member: 2125"] The massacre at VT ranks as the worst mass college killing in American history.. But it is not the deadliest rampage at a U.S. school That terrible distinction belongs to the horror that befell the Bath Consolidated School in Bath Twonship, Mich., nearly 80 years ago. On May 18, 1927, school baord member Andrew Kehoe wet on a rampage apparently triggered by his anger over a property tax that had been levied to build the school. Blaming the tax for pushing his farm into forclosure, Koehoe killed his wife and torched his farm buildings. He then turned to the school building, where he had surreptitiously hidden dynamite over several weeks, and detonated the explosives. When rescuers arrived, Koehoe drove to the school and detonated a firebomb he had with him in his car, killing himself and the school superintendent. Most of the $# others killed in the bombings were children. The world hasn't changed much in the last 80 years. There are insane people today as there were then. [/QUOTE]
