That still seems to be the case. The first shooting was about two hours earlier, also. Freaky.

To clarify:

One shooter, one victim, about 7:15 in a dorm - both shooter and victim are dead.

About two hours later - another shooter, right now about 20 dead and 20 wounded, and that shooter is still on the loose.

I'm majorly wigged. But not as much as my sister, whose birthday falls this week. (Waco, Columbine, and now this?)

I'm sorry, there is a shooting in a dorm at 7:15 am and you're still having classes at 9:30? WTF?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Horrible cross-post. Twenty dead? There are no words. Or, plenty of words, but none fully adequate.

It is very wigg worthy. How awful.

Edit: The shootings not whippets.

That is weird. The reports are still pretty chaotic though, maybe it will make more sense once the reporting settles down.

Trust my rage

One of the daughters of my coworker goes to school there. Thankfully, she's okay.

Also the anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing. I always hold my breath at this time of year, because I'd much rather be commemoraring Patriot's Day and the Boston Marathon, and taxes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Damn, that sounds terrible.
