Seems like it is a liberal hoax. Going to bring a 44 magnum? Why? Because the shooter really wants a painful wrist and limited shots? Communist scumbags?

Yeah, someone wanted to avoid a final and punish those evil conservatives.

I’ve spent some time around similar “progressive education” mushbrains. Academic rigor is alien to their world.

Evergreen doesn’t give grades. The “professors” give “meaningful feedback.”

This is the link to the letter/speech the President (who uses He/Him pronouns) posted in response to their demands

They went full SJW, they are a lost cause.

No, it’s not a good option for concealed carry.
I have a Model 28, same gun in .357, great gun to shoot.
I can hit bowling pins at 75 yards.
My brother-in-law has the Model 29, I only shoot it with .44 special I it. It’s great with that load.
Just not comfortable to shoot with magnums.

“programs that explore the many sides of a theme or topic.”

Except, of course, the CONSERVATIVE side!!! ;)

A male caller told a dispatcher: "I'm on my way to Evergreen University now with a .44 Magnum an evil assault weapon like the one Clint Eastwood had in that old movie we had to watch in our 'White Privilege Film History' class."

False flag, for sure.

I shot a center-fire target match with a 4" 629 and 240 gr factory PMC 44mag. First 25 yard target allowed 2 hands. Scored a lousy 76 pts compared to my usual 96 pts with the 38SPL out of 4" 686". 2nd target had to be fired with ONE hand. 25 pts. Sad. The 629 is a bit big for me as a one-handed revolver. Recently fixed that with a Model 69 5-shot 44mag. 4.25" barrel and L frame. Much easier to shoot one-handed...like the 686+. I enjoy 44SPL out of the Model 69.

I suspect the caller is a lefty loony making a false threat.

My .44 Mag is a six shot revolver.

Not the kind of Gun you would use to commit mass murder.

The guy who called probably watched Dirty Harry while putting away a 12 Pack and thought to himself, I think I’ll make a prank phone call.

Ba Ba Booie...

Just shut the place down until fall, and give everyone an “F” for their Spring semester courses.

There are no grades at evergreen. There are peer and professor reviews. In essence, pass fail. That's why so many of them go into civil servant jobs. Private industry can not make sense of the question - so your GPA was a well done? - with these loons.

One more thing - their school mascot is the geoduck clam.

Right out of the leftist playbook: cross a line and then act like YOU are the victim. Kathy Griffin did it today, also.

Oh it takes a lot luck and certain type of pluck just to dig around muck for to get a gooey duck as he doesn’t have a front and doesn’t have back. His name is not Donald and he doesn’t go quack

EVERYTHING the Left does is a lie or a hoax. Global Warming, Russia, Racism, Peaceful Islam...it is an endless list.

For about 18 months, I was stationed up in this region (at McChord) in the early 1980s. What you figured out after a few weeks there was that there were three significant cities in the region and each had some unique character, charm, or screwed-up problem.

Tacoma was this working-class town that desperately survived off Army and Air Force expenditures. As much as the locals hated that...they had to grin and bear it.

Seattle was a yuppie town, that seemed fake. No one with real money lived in the city...they just came to walk around, sip coffee, or discuss art. People with real money lived on Vashon Island.

Finally, Olympia (where Evergreen sits). Even in the 1980s, you regarded Olympia as the place where the mental midgets, nutcases, or radicals lived. My impression was that one in three residents from the area smoked weed on a daily basis (that was the 1980s).

There’s somewhere in the region of 5,000 students that attend Evergreen....most all (I’m willing to bet on this) are from a 100 mile circle of Olympia. It would shock me if you found more than 100 non-Washington state students at the college. Out-of-state tuition is 24,000 compared to in-state levels of 6,000.

Looking for minority students? This just isn’t the region where minorities ever moved into. I would have doubts that you have more than 10-percent who are non-white. So this whole bizarre attitude is mostly from punk kids from the region. My guess is that parents will review options and some who were going to enter as freshmen in the fall....will be going to a second option. By fall of 2018....figure a one-thousand student loss which the school can’t really explain.

And I thought the threat was that the Constitution was going to be taught to the students.
