It’s a college. Most have unlocked doors.

We went on 20 different campuses on tour and could walk in pretty much anywhere on campuses except student housing.
That's dangerous and absurd.
How old are you?
You are crazy.
And you cannot protect against random whack jobs. I know it makes you feel better to think any random whacko with a gun can be stopped before anything happens. It’s not the world we live in unless you never leave the house.
We just had the army reserve shot and killed right near the White House.

Talk about trauma.
The UVA students were on lockdown for 12 hours so this isn’t new.
Can you say a little more about why you posted this?
Exactly. Why?
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.
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.
And "good guys with guns" wouldn't have stopped it - rarely ever have.

One of the reasons Rhode Island used to be a hot bed of auto theft was the ability to be outside state lines in any direction within an hour
I don’t know what it’s like today with things like GPS and Onstar but the simplest thing to do would be to jump into your vehicle and hit 95 within a few minutes
I didn’t go to Brown but I was a lawyer in Providence on Dyer St. for about ten years and lived next to campus. The only hotel I even remember was the Marriott downtown
You have been gone a very long time. Providence is filled with luxury hotels now.
You are correct, I was there in the 90s. That whole mall complex that’s there today was still a giant abandoned factory building called the Foundry. I used to have to go there maybe once a week. Nice to hear it has been so revitalized since then. The law firm I worked at doesn’t exist anymore, either.
Neither here nor there, I guess, it’s just got me remembering the area in general. Felt like very short distances to everything and I remember the thing about “everyone knowing everyone else” being very true. Very sorry for those families of those students who will never again have holidays that are the same.

“ BREAKING - Police now have a suspect in the mass shooting at Brown University but are refusing to provide the suspect’s age, race, or motive, only stating that the shooter “yelled something” before the attack and that the weapon used has a “unique characteristic” on it.”
If it was a white male, we’d know it. They only delay the id when it’s not
