More than 10,000 students are at the North Harris campus of Lone Star College, spokesman Jed Young said.


[Initial post, 1:50 p.m. ET] A shooting has been reported at a Lone Star College campus in Houston, Texas, CNN affiliates KTRK and KPRC reported.

Footage from KPRC showed a large number of law enforcement personnel on campus, and at least two people being wheeled on gurneys toward ambulances.

This story is developing. We'll post more details as we get them.

stop the madness!!!

I might not ever leave the house again. Just not worth it....

Who cares?

can you home school through college?

My friend just posted this on facebook:

Glad that your friend is ok. Hopefully they aren't significantly traumatized.

Yet Bob Dole, who has his CHL, is prohibited by the state from arming and protecting himself on a university campus.

I would just like to say I'm glad that my profession now seems to carry the same life expectancy as a 1980s hemophiliac Haitian chimney sweep who moonlights as a heroin-addicted power bottom.

Glad your friend is ok guess I should clarify my comment. I believe the media/society pays waaaay too much attention to this shit. Like someone said shooting up a place has became the new way to attention whore.

****OFFICIAL SCHOOL SHOOTING THREAD****

Hate to LMAO at a time like this, but that dark humor rings true.

I've got friends that work at that library...and I know the director (I used to work there). Scary stuff.

From the latest info, it appears that it was two people shooting at each and a couple unarmed people were caught in the crossfire. Still bad shit, but not your typical guy walking into a classroom blazing like Rambo scenario.

The media overreacting? No way.

possibly using an AR-15 / Fox News

Nobody cares.

Like Archie Bunker said we just need to give everyone a machine gun on planes (and in this case schools)

How do you expect them to proliferate an agenda by reporting facts?

anyone who doesn't think the media is entertainment and not journalism, should watch the coverage of the inaguration yesterday. They were like teen girls seeing the Beetles for the first time. Disgusting.

So, in essence, your friend is saying that his prayer daily kept him safe, and those that did not pray were... vulnerable?

I can't stand people who make this connection between their prayer and daily events, regardless of what you do or don't believe in.

Well, he tithes and fasts too, for that little extra protection.

Shooter probably consumed too much HFCS.

Latest update is that this was a gunfight between two idiots in the library and a few innocent bystanders got caught in the crossfire. More here from KTRK (local station).

they most assuredly were in the AR-15 section of the Library.

LMAOLMAO

OUTLAW SCHOOLS NOW!!!!

This doesn't support the agenda...please disregard. DISREGARD...focus on the possible possibilities!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bob Dole is pretty sure Congress removed that section from the Dewey Decimal System back in the late 1980's.

Assault Weapons!!!!!!! Ban all guns!..........thanks from deer everywhere!

In the library? Someone must have been trying to walk off with the last copy of Fifty Shades of Grey.

Either way, there's still too many guns in this country and therefore too many stupid/crazy people with guns. But I'm long past the point of thinking it prudent to get in a debate about such things.

JFC..................you better arm yourself. Guns dont kill people....Assault weapons Kill people!

Oh, you are?

So, you entered the thread and made the comment (that sparks a debate 100% of the time), but you are long past debating?

Makes sense.:drool:

Why is this news?

Two thugs, I'm guessing likely gang bangers got into a fight and started shooting each other. The only thing that sucks is that they can't aim so they hit a bystander. This shit happens not just every day but every HOUR in major cities.. What makes this incident news????

Is it because it happened a community college that somehow it can be marketed as being scarier and therefore pushed to support the agenda of the reporters for gun control?

It would be interesting, has there actually been a statistically significant increase in shootings or has there been a statistically significant increase in the reporting of shootings?

It's because it happened at a school and the media has to go totally overboard in reporting it...If it would have happened out in a street, it wouldn't have even been reported.

Is it any wonder that more and more shootings are taking place at schools and on college campuses?

Guns certainly make it easier to kill people, I'd say.

Yep, it's not worth it.
