RUMOURS of murder-suicide. NOT CONFIRMED!
Just FYI.
Sounds like a targeted hit.
Not likely as that guy was Asian(hmm, wonder if Asian is taking on connotation that English press uses) This at Jackson state may be a way to lure police to the campus so a number of peace loving BLM cowards can shoot a few.
There is a pattern it seems. Every two weeks another one springs up.
UC at Santa Clara. Seems these creatures crawl on Redwood trees. I think students get together and use it as a tongue in cheek offset against what is normally considered a mascot. I always have to smile when I tell people I went to Oregon which is the home of the Fighting Ducks. A goose maybe but Ducks, fighting?
Still no description of the killer. It must be a Dindo.

You mean famed liberal icon author .....I quit reading his books years ago. He jumped the shark.
Bolivar County Coroner Murray Roark confirmed to WLBT-TV that a professor at Delta State University was shot and killed Monday morning. The identity of that person was not immediately released.
As of this posting, Cleveland police said the shooter was still at large.
Delta State tweeted that the campus remains on lock-down; “Please stay inside and and away from windows.”
I started getting the same feeling around July.
Delta State University is a gun free zone. Maybe they need to post some more signs so the crazed killers know not to bring guns on campus where no one is able to defend themselves.

If they bet on this in Vegas, I wouldn’t be surprised it it’s about 900 to 1 odds that the shooter is a Democrat.
