It sucks clearly. I hate how politics are already getting involved into the situation and the media is exploiting it. That is just reality I suppose. I mean this is the second "close to home" situation I had to deal with this school year. Earlier two kids were shot by their father in the Shepherd parking lot.

I'm not all about gun control, I'm kind of go back and forth on the issue. This is irrelevant, but one can buy ammunition with a background check (or so I heard on msnbc when they were talking about the guy's ability to buy a gun). I think that ammunition law is just asking for black market of guns. What do I know though.

I also hate the fact that school security is going to be brought into this issue. I already have to swipe a card key, unlock main doors, then unlock my dorm room door to get in. It is kind of ridiculous. They could do the same with classes I suppose, but that'd be a bit hetic and pointless. There is no way you can prevent nut jobs from tripping out sometimes.
