What kind of reporting is this?

No photo of the carrot-top? No digging into the perp’s background? Facebook rantings etc etc?

Heard an interview with one of the students that goes to that college. He stated he would feel a lot safer if concealed carry were permitted because he would have the means to defend himself against this kind of attack.

Yup. That’s the thing about Texans. They cut through the BS to come up with effective solutions.
