The civilian who died was an Aggie’s mom helping student get moved in for semester. I think student was a freshman.

I live in Bryan/College Station. This is so sad!

What the hell is going on?

We keep having shootings all over!

Maybe we need to re-vamp our “justice” system (not to mention re-institute mental facilities) and get serious.

I know. He’s also got a lot of other “moms” around. I went to A&M, and all my old classmates are vowing to check in on him.

Plus, my 28 year old nephew and his wife are moving to College Station.

It’s just hard being so far away. Maybe it will convince my husband to move out of California!!!

Happened where a lot of students live. A mom helping her daughter move in a house for school was shot. Scary.

It may be a dumpy area, but Aggies live in all of them.

I lived in that area when I attended A&M 30 years ago. It was a dumpy area back then. We called our apartment complex "the projects."

From the information I’ve seen, the female civilian(presumably the mother you mention) was in surgery from being shot in the arm. The fatalities are the constable, a male civilian(possibly landlord), and the shooter.

Maybe a dumpy area now, but more than 30 years ago there were a lot of students living in that area.

I lived in the same area for a semester in 1981. I can't remember the name of the street but it was a very dumpy apartment complex.

“They just announced on the radio that the shooter is dead.”

That should save the taxpayers more than a few bucks.

Sounds like this is being pumped up by the press.
 
Most definitely - looking like this has nothing to do with A&M at all. An eviction gone bad is escalated into a campus massacre before you could spit. Speaks volumes about the media ghouls and their agendas.

Media reporting he has already received the death penalty. Good riddance.

Press reports indicated that one of those shot was a process server attempting to serve an eviction notice. It's been a hot summer, in Texas and elsewhere.

I'm waiting to hear if he'll be identified as one of those white-Hispanics. AZnd, of course, if his deadly assault rifle came from the fast & furious supply chain.

Oh great!

Now anyone getting shot while serving an eviction notice, in a domestic dispute, in a gangland shootout, etc will be on the news:

“LONE GUNMAN SHOOTING SPREE...GUNMAN SHOOTS SOMEONE...CRY FOR GUN CONTROL FROM DOJ!!!”

GHWB's Library is at TAMU.

My husband is currently on a road trip from California to take my son to A&M for his freshman year.

We take our son down day after tomorrow to start his fish year. Will your son be in the Corps?
