I know! I'm as shocked as you are!!!!
Unless..... oh no..... I can't believe this might be a possibility... but....
Maybe..... the guy BROKE THE LAW?!?!?!
Unfathomable, I know, that criminals actually Break the law!!!
So far there's no reports of any other injuries or fatalities other than the gunman himself. I hope it stays that way.

I know how angered we are right now because some many were hurt in a "safe" "gun free zone.'
Lets please all say a prayer for those affected.

A tweeter on campus, at UT Law on the north side, says he had an AK47 (who knows).
They are also looking for a second suspect.
