ROTC students subdued and killed a gunman who yelled “Allahu Akbar” before opening fire Thursday in an Old Dominion University classroom, killing one and wounding two, according to the FBI, which said the shooter had been in the Army and pleaded guilty in 2016 to attempting to aid the Islamic State.
Dominique Evans, special agent in charge of the FBI’s Norfolk field office, said at a news conference that the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps students showed “extreme bravery and courage” and prevented further loss of life by stopping the suspect, identified as Mohamed Bailor Jalloh.
The ROTC students subdued him and “rendered him no longer alive,” Evans said. “I don’t know how else to say it.”
She didn’t provide further details about that except to confirm the gunman wasn’t shot. She said Jalloh aspired to conduct a terrorist attack like the killings at Fort Hood.

Catch the latest buzz phrase? They “rendered him un-alive.”
If not for the tragic loss of the instructor's life, that would be LOL funny.
Americans need to know that they need to be ready to become “the next man up”.
Life going forward is going to be existentially tougher.
As the Boy Scouts used to promote, “Be Prepared”.
[They were NOT wrong...]
Well, at least we don’t have to fight judges on deporting him.
They have earned decoration bestowed by the POTUS at the White House!
This is something civilians never understand. They will lay there until they get killed. First Responders and Soldiers will charge the gun man. Maybe one of us will get killed or wounded, but he won’t have enough time to kill all of us charging at him. This is taught in basic training assaulting a fixed position with a M16 using live ammo and practice grenades.
“The ROTC students subdued him and “rendered him no longer alive,” Evans said. “I don’t know how else to say it.””
Killed...say the word kill, you euphemism-spouting FBI wuss.

The fact that this kind of stuff is happening is why Mrs L and I do not go anywhere unarmed.

What are the odds the Va AG Jay Jones will investigate the ROTC student? The kid will have a better chance of avoiding prosecution if he is a minority.
The Cadet will be guaranteed a Ranger school slot after graduation.
Tell a liberal pol that the enemy has a distinct profile, and watch them call you every name in the book.
Liberal pols are every bit as much of a problem as terrorists.
