    Dude, I just keep praying that one of what I would call us "more proficient" shooters don't ever loose it...
    Possibly when you crack you lose grip of all your mental abilities... I sure a hell hope so!!

    CNN says shooter is dead. Not sure if he was shot or killed himself.

    loonies like this blowing away people with a shotgun is not a reason for "gun control". no reason to take away people's 2nd amendment rights.

    its on the tv here about it now..they are saying the shooter is dead, and at least 3 victims.
    then of course the reporter starts going on about..." the main question now is how long are the authorities here in the u.s going to allow this kind of thing to keep happening before they do something to stop it?" ...as i said in my previous post , and a lot of you have said before...let teachers and students carry guns legally and their wont be many killed before the shooter gets whacked!!
    maybe its time for students to ALL turn up carrying and put pressure on the authorities to change the law to allow people to defend themselves!!

    WTH is with all the shootings lately... every time there is an election.
    Now there is a Supreme court ruling too.

    The consistent timing of all these shootings just seems to defy random chance. Any statistician could tell there is a high probability of a correlation...

    Election time gets people PO'd, and they go nuts?
    Or some form of conspiracy theory?

    5 people now listeed as dead, he had more then 2 weapons they are sayin.
    To me this is exactly the reason to carry, but it wont be precieved like that.

    I'm sure the media will glamorize this for a month or so. Long enough for some other sick SOB To start fantasizing about his own 10 minutes of fame.

    Of course the anti-gun side will offer actions like this as reasons why even more lawful, peaceful gun owners should be disarrmed. Disarmed and thereby offering up even more helpless victims to the crazy, murdering gunmen and women.

    You would think that the fact that these nutcases never ever launch such attacks at a police station or military compound (both places where lots of the potential victims have access to guns) would be obvious reasons why the lawful citizens should not have their gun rights infringed ANYWHERE.

    Wish there was someway I could show that anti-gun side that, for example, murder is already outlawed, yet we suffer from plenty of that. My point is that more laws will not solve the problem because only the already lawful people obey laws.

    Just what I was going to ask was it a gun free zone. See how well those work.

    Makes me wonder..
    Has anyone did a study or even checked into if these people are Muslim or Muslim converts?

    Since they are suppose to be fighting us infidels makes me wonder if it is not all part of the plan.

    Back in the mid 80's i worked college security, we had a student go around campus shooting and we were unarmed, the adm was up in arms and when we requested to be armed due to the open field of the campus to people the adms got even more uptight.

    Could you imagine being this shooter's parents, and how they must feel! I just hope the kid didn't take one or more of his dad's guns to do this, i hope he got them illegaly.

    Another shot in the arm for Illinois gun owners!

    You know, it's very interesting. Everybody on here is the world's biggest Christian, and all about Jesus and all the rest of it, and a bunch of people are killed and people instantly start talking about how their gun rights are in peril and the Democrats and gun-free zones and is it Muslim terrorism and all the rest of it.

    We do these prayers requested things for people looking for a job, for those with back pain, for people who are down on their luck. A bunch of innocent people got killed, and many more are wounded. Could we please perhaps wait at least a day before exhibiting the same sort of callous behavior we criticize the anti-gun crowd for, and could we please have a few prayers for the victims and their families?
