Crazy hearing things like this happening across the sea,makes me so grateful to live in my country where even the police don't have guns.

Thoughts go out to the victims.

It's all those behavior modification experiments the government's been doing starting to take hold.

How can this happen?  It's a "gun-free zone".

Right because Ireland has been so peaceful. Does the IRA ring a bell?

 

Terrible. Many families destroyed in the blink of an eye.

Am I the only one that finds it odd that when something like this is going down, people immediately start posting to twitter rather than take cover?

Did you hear there was another mass shooting? Too bad there weren't more guns there.

What a terrible tragedy.  


Also how quick people are to point this as a "Gun Free Zone" when in fact it was not a gun free zone.  A 2011 decision in oregon banned public campuses from prohibiting guns on campus.

This certainly makes a lot of sense.

 

Quote: 

Joe Olson, former president of the college, told The Associated Press the school has only one security officer on duty at a time, and that person isn’t armed.
 

This seems reasonable as well.

 

Quote: 

The community college is a gun-free campus.

 

“Possession, use, or threatened use of firearms (including but not limited to BB guns, air guns, water pistols, and paint guns) ammunition, explosives, dangerous chemicals, or any other objects as weapons on college property, except as expressly authorized by law or college regulations, is prohibited,” the college’s security policy states.

Ahem.  Refer to my prior quote from the news article.

So are you saying that the college is in violation of the law?

Or are you stating that someone with a CC permit could have had a firearm and possibly stopped the action sooner?

Sure but, how do you tell the good guys with guns from the bad guys with guns?

Well for starters, the good guys with guns won't be shooting multiple people.
