This writer(?) should be ashamed of himself for the title he has picked. Frankly it's a disgusting grab for headline reading morons. I suppose I qualify simply by responding to this dreadfully titled item. Mind you I haven't and won't read it simply because of that.

Many ridiculous comments on this thread. Sylvia is about the most sensible of the comments so far.

Why is it that people on sites like this "know" all the answers, facts and solutions before the authorities have even finished their investigations? It's typical of how judgemental and demanding of others we are.

Do those who expect total security everywhere really expect any law enforcemnet agency, no matter what size, to prevent crimes such as this one? It's ridiculous to expect such.

Take a look at Iraq. The US have what, about 170,000 troops there. As well as the Iraqui troops. They all know that every day the insurgents will strike. Are they able to stop it?

Clearly the answer is NO.

Given the size of that operation how can you possibly expect a rural university to guard against one person who has had whatever reasons for doing what he did? Assuming of course that is the case. So far it's mainly just assumptions based on some facts. There could be more than one person, anything is possible.

Just for once how about waiting until the facts are known. Even then how about considering the impossibility of defending all people against all possibilities. It can't be done. Start thinking instead of reacting. If you do then it may spread and who knows, maybe everyone starts thinking before they react.

hi all,

I noted that this fellows parents had a dry cleaning business ...

perhaps the dry cleaning fluids also effected the mental health
of this fellow

was he living and working around dry cleaning fluids ?

he certainly looked dazed

JHH

Blame the person who actually did the deed.

Gun control is attached to the finger on the trigger.

Ban things that kill people, by design or default, its all the same. Except in the case of (insert specious agenda driven rationale here).

Intention is irrelevant, a figment of a intelligent imagination.

Intentions dont change the facts. Neither do reasons.

When things like guns are outlawed, only the outlaws and the state will have them. A much more dangerous situatuon than public ownership of guns. l'll take the lesser of two evils here.

Heck, l dont even own a gun, never fired one and cant understand why people hunt for sport. But lm not gonna advocate for punishing the 99% of responsible private owners because of a few rotten apples. But that's just me.

Finally, in the absence of whipping the actual offender, bite the hand that feeds and make sure to punish good deeds.
