Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 one CC with a gun could have saved a lot of misery Or a judicious application of a chair.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoss Posted April 9, 2013 Author Share Posted April 9, 2013 I certainly hope the victims fully recover, and the perp is punished f the full extent of the law. But this should show that criminals or nut jobs don't need guns to do their dirty work. And BMC, you are right about hammers. Believe it or not, we have 2 former employees (both before my time) in prison for killing somebody with a hammer in unrelated incidents! Thst s one reason why I carry. Never know when a disgruntled former employee might show up with an agenda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I just don't understand why people do not defend themselves from these creeps. Have we bred the instint for self preservation out of our young? Has PC overcome reason and the sheep are taking over? It is like a nightmare and I doubt that there will be a wake up call anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uno Mas SASS #80082 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Badg; the moron was run down and tackled by three students who heard the screaming. They then sat on him until the cops finally showed. From some reports, the slasher had a scalpel type knife, used for dissecting animals. If'n I remember my days on the other end of a dead frog, that could be an extremely sharp 1.5" blade. Good on the kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazarus Longshot, SASS #44254 Life Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Another gun-free zone! Local news has already broadcast a couple of interviews of concealed-carry licensed students asking why the law prevents them from carrying on campus. This was the same school, but a different campus (Lone Star College has nine campuses), that had shooting on campus a couple of months ago.

Tell Sackett SASS 18436 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 He was taken down by students, and then Harris county Sheriff Adrian Garcia had the nerve to go on the news and credit campus cops and HC deputies with "protecting" the students!!! Made me sick to hear it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACKFOOT SASS #11947 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 They need to do a extended background check before selling anyone an X-acto knife. Also, they need to prevent having more than 10 extra blades. Lafitte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
