There needs to be people on campus at every school with guns to prevent such things from occuring. Either we need to have armed security officers, or give guns to the teachers as well as the Dean or Principle. Then the casualties would be reduced as the shooter could be taken out sooner.

I take it you like western movies.

while our boys are in the middle east fighting allah, satan has a heyday in America promoting domestic terrorism. :rolleyes:

Right on. The only thing that stops a nut with a gun, is the arrival of more guns.

:rolleyes: When will people get a clue: more guns mean less crime?

No, more guns = more fear. How do you have a trusting academic community when there are guns everywhere? Remember how rare these things are - this is the biggest college campus shooting ever. I'm not saying that safety things couldn't have been handled differently, because it appears that there were some major problems and delays. But as a current college student living 550 miles from home, I can say honestly that I would never give up a gun-free campus for some marginal gain in feeling safe. Let's call this what it is - an atrocity, an abomination, a nightmare - and not make it a case study.

Lousy stuff, hopefully we'll learn more about it as time goes on.

It sounds like a lot of the information isn't really clarified yet, I would love to see more details in the future.

Any news as to what caused him to start shooting?
