Virginia Tech found negligent

maybe using a basic tornado type alarm siren would be better - everyone would hear it and know to take preventative measures

still to blame the University for something that has odds greater than winning the lottery is , IMO, ludicrous

life has dangerous situations, even crossing the street.....I would venture that rape and other drinking-related crimes are a lot more prevalent than a shooting and those can have just as debilitating and life-long damage
 
I still feel that allowing lawful citizens to carry on campus is the best option for deterring another attack.

I have never been against that and never saw that as an option to this situation - I agree, the FASTEST response would be for instructors to be armed, but since most are very anti-gun liberals in most cases, that isn't going to happen

The civil suit wasn't blaming the University for the shooting. It was claiming that the University botched in their response to the shooting. Regardless of my feelings about the validity of the case, I think it's an important distinction.

That is part of our crisis alert system. They test it out a few times a year and it is very loud and noticeable.:)

Sadly, this is true. But for your info - when our faculty Senate wrote a letter against the campus carry bill to the state legislature - one faculty member contacted the Senate to object. Guess who and he wasn't the classic TX conservative gun guy. Those guys didn't say squat.

And who was the prof - who on the faculty internal listserv, spoke up for RKBA? Not the hard core conservatives, strangely quiet.
