ABC 15 story here



From the article:

NAU officials have identified the student killed as freshman Colin Brough. Nicholas Prato, Kyle Zientek and Nicholas Piring are currently being treated at Flagstaff Medical Center. Their current conditions are unclear.

NAU tweeted out just before 3 a.m. that the suspect, 18-year-old Steven Jones, is in custody.

1. I guess this one doesn't count since only 1 person was murdered.

Just one person who likely leaves many people behind who loved them.
Just another statistic in GunUSA.

5. Surprised it's getting any coverage at all. Viewers need at least two dead bodies on the ground.

2. Well, at least it isn't a mass shooting

4. Actually it is a Mass Shooting

4 or more victims. No one has to die to meet that definition.

A Mass Killing is 4 or more dead.

Isn't it great that we have such precision in our mayhem discussions?

6. But not what we usually think of as a "school shooting."

I suspect when most people think of a "school shooting," they think of some nut coming into a classroom and opening fire...not two groups of students getting into a deadly fight at 1:20AM out in a parking lot.

Precision in our mayhem discussions, and all that...

8. I'd imagine lots of our resident 2nd Amendment Purists

will consider this a Defensive Gun Use as well. an illegal one, sure, but it validates their numbers and that's what's important.

9. I couldn't say.

To me, it's looking like a drunken brawl by dumbshit college-age lads that turned deadly...but there's still so much unknown about what actually went down.

13. I think of a school shooting as any illegal shooting occurring at a school.

I don't know why anyone other than the NRA would suggest limiting the definition.

7. He died to protect the 2nd Amendment

The 2nd Amendment must be watered daily with the blood of innocents.

10. Where I got my master's degree. Sad day for my graduate school alma mater.

On edit. . .it happened at Mountain View Hall, which is the greek dorm. I wonder if it is chapter related.

11. Stuff happens! Wait! That came out wrong! I didn't mean stuff: I meant bullet holes in people!

Bullet holes in people happen! When somebody points a gun at me, I tell him to shoot someone else instead! Bullet holes in other people is a price I'm willing to pay for my gun-carrying rights! Also, when there's a mass shooting in progress everybody should run at the shooter! How do you think we surgeons make our money?

12. Good News! No Guns were Hurt or Injured!
