Texas legislators have been trying to get a law pass that allows concealed weapons on college campuses. Maybe the government conducted this so that gun bill will pass. Wait...am I doing this wrong?

For the record they have said there was two shooters. Just making sure we recognize this in case they say their was one shooter in the future.

I thought these wild-west shoot-outs were a 'right of passage' in Texas :manny:

How many armed security guards were on duty?


not enough apparently



I have a great idea lets get rid of colleges and instead have conscription.
Nobody is coming home from Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan etc anyways so they won't need an education.

yeah, this is looking like an argument that escalated to guns. not really a 'school shooting' per se

I used to work there a while back. Damn am I glad I missed all of that action. I'm pretty sure all of the campuses that had shootings were like this, but that place was so laid back and peaceful. Its a shame.
