This has to be a mistake; the UCLA Campus is a Gun-Free Zone.

Quick, everyone to your safe-spaces...

The article just said “injured”

Here is some update (at the same link — it’s Breaking News at the LA Times website}:

“The FBI and ATF are both responding, each agency said. The LAPD placed the city on a tactical alert and shifted hundreds of officers to the Westwood campus and surrounding neighborhoods around 10:30 a.m.

The motive for shooting was not immediately clear, law enforcement officials told The Times.”

I think grades were just handed out and I am willing to bet it was a teacher/student dispute or a doctoral thesis, etc.

Obviously terror related - if it were anything else, they would have already named the shooter and made it clear he is a racist white right wing extremist Trump voter.

No, but I don’t want the gun grabbers coming out for us law abiding Americans and since there are already terrorists here, and the dems are loathe to acknowledge that FACT (or even call them radical Islamic terrorists), I’d rather this cowardly heathen be one of them. I don’t see why that’s so hard to understand....

'Shooting at UCLA: Gun-Free Zone fails again'

All UCLA students will be singing Kumbaya shortly. Or is it maybe 'Choom by ya'?
