We've been told Virginia Tech's mass killing was the most horrific in American history. This is not true. In a Michigan school in 1927, 45 people were killed and 58 injured, most were children.

This was the worse SHOOTING, is what I heard. It is more scary to think about the shooting though, because people were lined up one-by-one and shot execution style. so you knew it was coming... horrible.

I was thinking of the 1927 body count as being much higher in my original post, plus the Virginia Tech recovery of bodies was much easier. Yes Virginia Tech was horrible!

In 1927: "There was a pile of children of about five or six under the roof and some of them had arms sticking out, some legs and some just heads sticking out. They were unrecognizable".

Thanks for the link, Craig. Andrew Kehoe, the guy who perpetrated the Bath massacre was one sick bastard. I found it interesting how he tried to absolve himself of responsibility for his sadistic acts with the sign that he left on his property, which read, "Criminals are made, not born"
