shooter at UT Austin

just shot himself in the campus library.

Why the library???  We are just trying to be quiet and mind our own business up in here.  can I request hazard pay? 

And why does this stuff go down in schools?  You want to shoot someone, make yourself useful and go find a meth lab.

Re: shooter at UT Austin

  • oh shitt. I freaked really bad for a minute. I have a friend that goes there and the last time they had a shooting at that school it was really bad. I was worried someone was redoing that.
  • One of the libraries at NYU was once a prime spot for jumping suicides, but that was probably because of the multistory atrium.

  • Libraries attract the crazies. When I was in grad school, I worked at the big-ass library at the big-ass state school. We regularly had weirdos in there, both students and the general public from town. One guy was a conspiracy theorist and would approach both students and faculty and trap them in hours-long discussions about how the government had a cure for cancer but didn't want us to know for population control. And we had a lady who would yell at the young girls to cover up and not be whores. It was good times.

    I'm in the middle of nowhere now and the crazy factor is much lower.

  • Someone needs to take Fenton's idea and run with it.  Just think about how the crazy shooter people will be revered after they're dead if they went balls to the wall and took out a meth lab or some gang.

  • You know, I think if I'm offing myself, I think I'd pick a school to be my place of demise.  It's dramatic, there are lots of ppl around, and it probably gets the most press.  The library is an interesting choice though. I think I'd go w/ some sort of assembly hall during an event.  But, that's just me.
