My son is presently in the Engineering program at A&M. Hopefully this is a mistake but I’ll guarantee you there are more than a few armed students at A&M.

Maybe it’s like the one the other day that turned out to be a NERF gun .....

What do they tell the students if a tornado's coming - to lock and load?!

Actually, there were several people with their hunting rifles keeping the shooter at bay while local officials tracked him down and shot him.

Just went through this with my daughter who goes to UT.

PRAYER UP! for TAMU

“Gunman is white”. Alert the MSM....

Update Poss - gunman on campus is white, wearing green clothing and carrying a backpack. A SWAT team is on its way now. (TWITTER)

Is that anything like a no armed gunman?

They are making great strides in the area of thought-controlled prosthetics...

“Gunman spotted on Texas A&M campus.”

Have there been shots fired? I mean this IS Texas after all, this could be perfectly innocent.

I didn’t realize there was more then one. I had heard that a teacher was firing at him and a student was handing the teacher ammo.

Many people who ran home, got their guns and came back to keep the perp's head down long enough for someone to go up and kill him. Who knows how many lives they saved, as they prevented him from shooting anybody else for quite a while.

Of course, today they'd all be arrested for bringing a weapon on campus, discharging a firearm within city limits, and violating noise ordinances.

“”My bad, thought you wrote prophylactics.”””

Don’t worry, comments like that just go in one ear and out the rubber.

Maybe it was just gun class. A blank went off.
