The very place they'd had a significant incident?<BR/><BR/>I finally talked to Richard this afternoon and he said universities are stunned everywhere. The place he worked had a shooting a few weeks ago and the police/admin focus had been on that event, not on shutting down the very large campus.

And for people who say the police should have shut campus down - how? A campus 4x the size of Central Park? Over 100 buildings? Would a panic have occurred? Where would people have gone that would have been safe? Who could have guessed the gunman could have gone to another building to kill more?<BR/><BR/>For what it's worth, from what he wrote (rich kids, debauchery, etc), I think the reason he killed the girl and the RA was because he saw her boyfriend leave her room that morning - a convenient trigger, and a way to 'punish' her for her sluttish ways. I'm surprised he didn't go for the boyfriend as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8703107.post-70031742520657361952007-04-17T21:49:00.000-05:002007-04-17T21:49:00.000-05:00I agree.
