Shooting at North Carolina university leaves 1 dead, 6 injured
lite CNN ^ | 4/27/25 | Zoe Sottile

One person was killed and six injured during an overnight shooting at Elizabeth City State University, a historically Black university in North Carolina.

The shooting took place in the early hours of Sunday morning at the center of campus following events for “Viking Fest,” a week of school spirit events, according to a statement from the university.

A 24-year-old man, who was not an Elizabeth City State University student, was killed, according to the statement. His identity is being withheld until his next of kin can be notified.

Additionally, six people were injured, four of them with gunshot wounds, the statement said. Three of the gunshot victims were Elizabeth City State University students. None of the injuries are life-threatening and all victims were transported to a hospital for treatment, according to the university.

The university instituted a campus lockdown and a shelter-in-place order for all students after the shooting, which was lifted later on Sunday.

“The university is deeply saddened by this senseless act,” an update from the university said. “Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims, their families, and all members of the Viking community affected by this tragedy.”

Another shooting. Is it them Yogi?

People no longer have impulse control. There are many parents not teaching that important trait to their children.

Far too many. And I’ll bet it’s them again, Yogi.

98+% of mass shootings occur in “gun-free zones.”

The most logical course of action would be to terminate the gun-free status of schools and universities.

But it’s not about protecting students.

It’s about ginning up an excuse to take our guns.

Black people commit more crimes than white people. They should go to prison for committing crimes.

If you’re a cop, arrest them. If you’re a judge, convict them, and if you’re a teacher, teach them. But speaking against them on a forum like this doesn’t solve the problem, it only makes it worse.

Maybe you like to point out the flaws in others because it makes you feel better about yourselves.

B.S.

If your culture is one of degradation, crime, and creating chaos, you should be called out and mocked.

The problem is they are more often than not excused from being arrested, and if arrested the judges let them go free because they just can’t be expected to do better.

A young female twerking on a car fell off and was run over by a fire truck. Why haven’t cops put a stop to the intersection take-overs and car meets where “youths” ride on top of cars that spin around in circles blocking traffic? Because it is accepted as their “culture” and would be considered racist to stop them. I’ll mock them day and night and point out their criminal stupidity.

We’ve allowed an entire segment of our population to act like animals, commit horrendous crimes, and live solely on tax-payer dollars just because of the color of their skin. THAT’S the systemic racism in our society. Low expectations results in low performance.

“the Viking community” not teaching self-discipline. Norse-splaining was academically defined to be “racist”.

Isn't that exactly what you are doing?

CORRECT:
"We’ve allowed an entire segment of our population to act like animals, commit horrendous crimes, and live solely on tax-payer dollars just because of the color of their skin."

I think the reason people point it out stems from exasperation that while we must worry about being caught in the violence, we are simultaneously being presented with a fake counter narrative.

Google burglar and you'll be offered nothing but stock images of white burglars.

I searched for "gangsta holds a gun sideways" and was offered some blacks but also plenty of whites

And we know how criminals are portrayed by the entertainment media.

So people here post about these unfortunate stats, because official channels lie about it.

The reality is bad enough without having to deal with official denials.
