I hope this doesn’t cut into the OJ coverage!

It was reported on Fox News that they have shut down the university telling any students in buildings should remain there.

Dr. Sessoms’ Statement Concerning N.J. Shooting Arrests
August 10, 2007

Delaware State University President Allen L. Sessoms released the following statement today in light of the announced arrests of two suspects in the Newark, N.J. shooting tragedy that resulted in the death of two DSU students and one prospective DSU student, as well as seriously wounded another DSU student:

“While we continue to grieve over the loss of the DSU students, we commend Mayor Corey Booker and the Newark NJ police authorities for their diligent investigation that has resulted in the arrest of a 15-year-old suspect and the subsequent surrender of a 31-year-old suspect,” Dr. Sessoms said. “The police clearly moved very quickly and in non-stop fashion to find those suspected this heinous and senseless act of violence.

“We look forward to the apprehension of any other perpetrators in the case. We applaud Natasha Aerial for her courage in providing law enforcement with invaluable assistance. We are hopeful for her complete physical and emotional recovery and look forward to embracing her upon eventual return to DSU.

“Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with the families as they grieve the losses of their loved ones. I, along with a group of more than 60 DSU students, faculty and administrators, will be joining them on Saturday to pay our respects at the funerals of Dashon Harvey, Terrance Aeriel, and Lofemi Hightower.

“We will continue to keep their memories alive through a Memorial Service being organized on campus Aug. 28 when the full student body returns for the first day of fall semester. We have also established a Scholarship Fund to benefit students from New Jersey and a Relief Fund to provide assistance with the expenses to the families of these students. We encourage anyone who would like to donate to go to the DSU website (www.desu.edu).

A representative from the university noted that while the school will gladly accommodate crack babies with lengthy histories of violence and mental illness, firearms are prohibited and students who violate the free speech code will be expelled . . .

Jeez, and all the news trucks are in Vegas and Miami so who is around to cover REAL news when it happens?

I love these Cable News morons. “The shooting is very similiar to the Va Tech shootings,...except that only two people were shot...” Yeah, and the VA. Tech shooting killed 30 plus, the shooter was an Asian psycho, etc., etc.

The 400-acre campus was surrounded Friday by groups of recreational vehicles belonging to NASCAR fans in town for this weekend's races at the Dover Downs Speedway.

See, these NASCAR fans, with their missing teeth and guns, they just break and kill everything. If this event wasn't happening no students would have been hurt. /mainstream media
