I agree
Indeed, conservatives have bigger fish to fry, like serving the country against terrorists or minding people or other children who deserve attention.
“We put two and two together,” he said. The professor gave the students chairs to throw if the shooter came in, said King’s friend, Christopher Walker Todd.

Bringing a chair to a gun fight in a gun free zone. Sitting ducks, all of them .... should be a crime to disarm people like this so they can’t defend themselves.
Mississippi Ping!
Was the woman his WIFE??
In microcosm...when History and Geography collide.
Cleveland Police Chief Charles "Buster" Bingham told reporters that Lamb was returning from Arkansas when a license plate reader picked up his plate as he crossed a bridge over the Mississippi River.
Don’t know... all they said was love triangle.
It was something like 2 hours before the swat team showed up and cleared the building.
It’s my understanding the woman was not his wife but rather his current girlfriend.
Also, I’ve read there was no love triangle going on. Could have been work-related in the professor’s case, though locals not sure the Lamb guy even knew the history professor.
Just catching up on articles. Apparently the two professors did know each other well. Sorry for the wrong info above.
Authorities say the suspect in the fatal shooting of his domestic partner and a university professor in Mississippi is dead.
Delta State University police chief Lynn Buford told The Associated Press late Monday that Greenville police were following 45-year-old Shannon Lamb when Lamb pulled over, jumped out of his car, and ran.
Buford says police heard one gunshot and found Lamb with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. They took Lamb to the hospital in Greenville where Buford says he was pronounced dead.
Police say Lamb fatally shot the woman he lived with on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and also fatally shot 39-year-old history professor Ethan Schmidt on the Delta State University campus in Cleveland, Mississippi, on Monday. The woman was identified as 41-year-old Amy Prentiss.
The former husband of a woman shot and killed in southern Mississippi says she was a “good person” and that their daughter is devastated by her death.
Shawn O’Steen said Monday that he was married to Amy Prentiss for about seven years.
Authorities are looking for Shannon Lamb, who is suspected in connection with Prentiss’ death as well as the death of a teacher at a Mississippi university on Monday.
O’Steen said he and Prentiss divorced 15 years ago, but remained friends.
He said the two have a daughter who is 19.
He said his daughter was “devastated” and that she and her mother were “absolutely best friends.”
Police in southern Mississippi say they have spoken with a man suspected in two shooting deaths and that he said he’s “not going to jail.”
Lt. Scott Wilson and another officer whose name was not given said during a news conference Monday in Gautier that they have spoken with Shannon Lamb.
It seems he was really busy that day...
Mississippi police say a man sought in the fatal shooting of a university professor is also a suspect in the shooting death of a woman he lived with 300 miles away.
Investigators in Gautier say 41-year-old Amy Prentiss was found shot to death in a home there Monday and that 45-year-old Shannon Lamb is a suspect.
Lamb is also a suspect in the shooting death of history professor Ethan Schmidt on the Delta State University campus in Cleveland, Mississippi, on Monday.
Cleveland is about 300 miles north of Gautier.
Authorities say they are searching for a car believed to be driven by a person of interest in the slaying of a university professor in Mississippi.
Mississippi Highway Patrol spokesman Johnny Poulos says investigators believe Shannon Lamb is driving a 2011 black Dodge Avenger with a Mississippi license plate and the number STF 015. The license plate also has the word “Stone” as a designation for Stone County.
A story as old as time.

It seems she was really busy as well.
