With any luck there won't be too many injuries in this attack. |

When it comes to guns on campus, American University is a lot safer than the University of Texas -- at least it should be safer according to the NRA dictum that an armed student body is the best preventative of gun crimes on college grounds. Will our concealed carry theorists explain how this tragedy could have happened to one of the best armed institutions of higher learning in the whole world? Thank you |

Where's the part about the students all being armed? Help a brother out. |
