Hoping my MAC brothers and sisters stay safe.

Good luck brother Chip. Run, hide, fight.

At least two dead. Suspect still at large.

What do you mean "sounds like"?

I doubt it. I've never heard of anyone carrying a weapon into a gun-free zone.

19 year old male illegally in possession of a handgun. Two killed in a dorm, suspect left the scene. Reasons that it is more crime of necessity (drug deal gone bad) or passion (jealous ex or lover's spat) than a copycat or mass shooting.

Not today, obviously.

Only for the law abiding.

Clearly the answer to this problem is to raise the age to purchase handguns to 21, make it illegal to have them on campus, and strictly regulate concealed carry.




Oh wait.....

Something odd here. I guess they could be Campus staff of one sort or another, I just immediately thought students...

Unless there is ongoing abuse involved of some sort, it's just hard to comprehend a child killing his parents (or vice-versa).

It's not a prison...it's a school. In most, family and friends can visit pretty much any time except for the overnight hours. And even then they can stay if they have permission.
