Talk about trauma. [/quote]

The UVA students were on lockdown for 12 hours so this isn’t new.[/quote]

Can you say a little more about why you posted this? [/quote]

Exactly. Why?[/quote]

To illustrate that school shootings and long lockdowns are not a one-off in the US, particularly when the shooter doesn't commit suicide or get shot by police. [/quote]

And not even student related. This was a 30-year old extremist, unrelated to Brown.

Campus police were there immediately according to students.

You can’t protect against this stuff. The alert systems worked. The school was prepared.

You can’t predict this stuff and very little you can do with random attacks. [/quote]

And "good guys with guns" wouldn't have stopped it - rarely ever have.[/quote]

Every cop that kills a shooter is a good guy with a gun. Every shooter that cowardly offs themselves when the cops arrive are killed by the specter of a good guy with a gun.[/quote]

Not exactly.  First, we have a problem with wrongful shootings by cops, to the point where we've had national protests about it, in case you weren't paying attention to the last 30 years.

Second, the cops at least have some training.  It's the MAGA bozos who think because they have a gun they are now an action hero who will stop crime who are the problem.  For all their guns, they prevent nothing.  [/quote]
