I'll take it further, what do you want to bet the lamestream media will say the guy was using a gun.

Typical liberal media, always assuming it's a gun and always focusing on the gun. Why can't they report the story and not mention the gun??

Yes that's what we need, students with CCW just what we need at institutions of higher learning.The college already has campus police, we don't need some self annointed Rambo helping them out. Thank goodness intelligent thinking prevailed in the Texas congress instead of Sen. Birdwell.

I'm in London and Sky News said 14, but you're right local Houston news is saying 3.

What about all the black youth killing each other in Chicago (gun free city). Are you going to post a thread for each of those shootings?

Don't need to, the White supremacists already do that.

Yes it can.

But you inadvertently may have hit the nail on the head. I wonder if the shooter was on meds? Seems like a ton of people are. The quick fix.
Treat symptoms instead of the cause.

Based on that comment I'd suppose that you'd like to ban carrying guns everywhere.

They said the alleged shooter was wearing a Atlanta Falcons shirt. That indicates what race the guy is.
