I know tons of people who carry knives around with them on campus all the time. They don't go around slitting throats... heh.
Anyway, yea I know what you mean about crappy searching. The police would've been searching all. night. long for the guy with the fake gun if they hadn't had the good luck to have a lady from the Military Sciences building pipe up and say that she had rented out a hard rubber fake AK-47 to a student not long before the alarm was raised. They then used the information in the system to figure out where the guy lived, and they went there, found him, took him in for interrogation, and then let him go since there was no crime committed, it was just a misunderstanding, lol.
Yea, having guns on campus has it's pros and cons. On one had, yea, you can defend yourself in case the metaphorical lightning strikes (actually, I'm told the chances of having an active shooter situation happen to you is roughly similar to your chance of getting struck by lightning), but when you have guns on campus, it gets substantially harder to tell who's the good guy and who's the bad. *shrug* that's the biggest one anyway
Also, I have to chuckle at Glen's suggestion. "Exciting" would be a good word for it, I suppose...
What a day....
