Prayers for FSU

We all woke up to sad news from Tallassee this morning.

A gunman was fatally shot after opening fire in a library on Florida State University’s campus early Thursday, sending hundreds of students who’d been studying for final exams running for their lives and cowering behind bookshelves. Three students were found suffering gunshot wounds at the scene.

Police received a call about an “armed subject” at the Strozier Library on the school’s main campus in Tallahassee at 12.30 a.m. ET. Officers confronted the gunman and ordered him to drop his weapon, according to Tallahassee Police spokesman Dave Northway. “The suspect did not comply with the commands and shot at the officers,” he added. “They returned fire and the suspect was killed.”

During a press conference at 6 a.m. ET, Police Chief Michael DeLeo described the shooting as an “isolated incident with one person acting alone.” It was unclear whether the gunman was a student.

Something tells me that guns are ‘banned’ in the library at FSU and there are probably signs everywhere telling criminals, and crazy people, and law abiding citizens to not bring their handguns to the library. I wonder which of these three groups followed the rules?

From the sports side of this story, it looks like someone is going to be in hot water:

Just for clarification:

    Not really sure why you chose to politicize this immediately.

    Yes……. Amen.

    Like most campuses… everything at FSU is pretty much within walking distance…
    and everybody there… knows somebody who knows somebody who….

    I was living in the old SigEp house on Copeland Ave in 1978… when Ted Bundy broke into the ChiO house 2 blocks away and…
    Nothing was ever the same again… I’m sure the kids, faculty and staff feel the same way today.
