Gunman on Rampage on Illinois Campus?!? - ztirffritz - 02-15-2008
I just read that a guy started shooting people on a college campus in Illinois. Details were thin, but it sounded like 15-20 people shot. The shooter killed himself.

5 shot dead, including gunman, at Northern Illinois University

It is so sick..You do have to wonder if these are copy cat crimes.
In 2 different incidents, 2 teens were shot near their school here in Atlanta.

Killing equals arrogance and a lack of empathy.
This will (and should be) moved to the political forum.

I'm in Chicago and NIU is about 60 miles from downtown. There has been heavy news coverage here.
Last fall there was a racial slur, a threat and a reference to VaTech found written on a wall in one of the residence halls at the school. So far no one has linked this incident to that threat but the news people keep asking anyone they talk to if they think there is a connection.
So scary...

It is not political yet. It is a news story.

Don't worry... it will most likely get there.
