Apologies if this has already been posted, but a quick little search showed nothing. Apparently there has been another college/university shooting...

Not a big deal, I swtiched over to my browser and found the story. Just thought I would let you know in case there was an error in the link.

I haven't read/heard how many are wounded/casualties/etc. Just read a couple security guards / campus police at this point.

CNN is reporting "several wounded" but is reporting no fatalities.

Also it's unclear whether the shooting was actually tied to the school. It happened a block off of it's campus.

Rrrrrrrreeally? I did not know that. Interesting. Wonder if it truly was a "school shooting" then. Regardless, still terrible nonetheless.

How many shootings happen in Chicago and other inner cities each day? Why does the media publicize some shootings and not others? Don't bother answering, I know the answer.

The U.S. averages 20 mass shootings a year.
