Being reported on our board an active shooter on Mississippi State's campus, students being told to seek safety.
Hard to believe

Just don't know why this kind of stuff keeps happening. Prayers for everyone there for their safety.
In custody, but what the hell are people thinking these days. I been around guns my entire life and the thought of randomly going around shooting people has never entered my mind.
Its a mental illness problem IMO. Either that or people are becoming more evil
Could have been, no injuries being reported right now, but you are right about it, complete DAs. Get their 15 minutes of fame I guess.
Our culture of death, lack of individual responsibility and personal interaction all have to be factors. Creating killing zones is the one common denominator.
Sounds more like someone wanting some attention then. I have never thought about killing myself, but if I had a gun I am pretty sure I would be successful, and I wouldn't be running around a college campus either.
When more and more characters on TV and film use guns to hasten their own agendas, the more often certain viewers will believe that it's the proper course to take in real world situations. I'm all for gun ownership, I have several, but why the need to think "if I'm going down, I'm taking a few with me"? That's what folks see on TV, film, and the news everyday. It's pathetic.
I have a family member in western Ky who whenever there is a tragic multiple shooting he runs out to buy thousands of rounds of ammo and new guns. He is a "good guy" and I like him but that is a common mentality that now is considered normal and that is a problem.
His biggest fear is somebody is going to try and take his guns away from him. The culture of death you speak of encompasses the culture of the gun. I am a gun owner and think it's gotten to be nuts. Big bad men with dump trucks of guns and ammo scared of what is going to happen to them.

The people that make guns and ammo love a good high profile killing.
They scream Obama's going to take their guns away.
And then they raise the price of their goods.
What a great racket.

He is not my friend he is family so you don't come across to me to be a very reliable source to rely on for sound advice.
Most studies indicate that there is actually less mass-shootings today than there were historically, but we just have access to more information today which makes the world seem more terrible and scarier than in the past. Nevertheless, I hope everybody at MSU is safe.
The weekend after the elementary school shooting there was a big gun show in town. I decided to go, when I got there, there was a line about 400 yards long to get in the doors, then the line snaked around inside the building probably another 100 yards before you could enter the exhibition hall. Once in there things were so packed you could barely move around and couldn't without pushing someone out of the way. When I finally got to a couple of tables, there laid the assault rifles, that a week earlier were selling for 1200$. That day, they were marked 3500$ and people were actually buying them. All the other guys were jacked up too but nothing like that. I perfer to buy my "new" guns after Thanksgiving, first time hunters are needing Christmas money and willing to part with hunting guns, and occassionally a pistol at a real bargain price. Usually 40 to 50 cents on a dollar, they will take 5 bucks more than a pawn shop will give them. Yes I am a lowlife, but a well armed low life.
Sociopathic people are being incited to commit violence through manipulation by agenda driven radical internet websites and leaders of radical belief systems. This is happening all over the world.
I have a very good friend who is high up in the ATF. I get phone calls time to time like this morning for example. I have much more knowledge than you of what is going on behind the scenes. Let's just say that those in office are trying to circumvent the 2nd amendment. It was put in place to keep the Gov in check and provide deterrent to foreign invaders. It has worked this far.
My friend has attended balls and meetings and has rubbed elbows with those who set policy. Let's just say that they highly despise red blooded Americans like me and would like to see me dead.
Most of the "fear" is not put out by gun companies but by the politicians calling for a ban on guns. Particularly semi auto's. Very little mass shootigs is done by sporting rifles like the Ar15, AK47, Ak 74, AR10, Galial, Vespr, HK91 and variants, Uzi etc etc etc. I assure you more people are killed by shopping carts or some kind of silly means than by these guns they want banned.
Overseas in countries where they have banned guns the crime rates have sky rocketed and it's basically lawless.
But anyhow you can live your life of having no firearms while living in safety by those who supply that safety with their dozen firearms and 100k rounds of ammo.
Ever noticed how the vast majority of these killers are liberals?? Wonder why that is? Hmmm
I didn't know we were related. Sorry. I didn't pay attention to the part where you said W. Ky. Im in C-E Ky.
Lets make laws and inconvenience EVERYONE because of a few SCREWBALLS... YEAH!!!!! hand guns and shot guns? NO... Maybe an AK-47 or something is NOT needed.. This is coming from someone who doesn't own a gun as well. Need to quit already with the regulations based on straight emotions and not rationality as a whole.
every single one of these nutjobs were prescribed a anti-psychotic pill probably as early as their teens and somehow the drugs are never even considered when these events happen. i remember at one time there were 3 school shootings in a row that the perp's were on the same exact medication... but lets all look for a reason somewhere else.
towles throws for 3200 yards this year and boom rushes for 1300.
