Oakland, CA FOX News affiliate KTVU reports that a student walked into a classroom at Oikos University, a small, independent Christian university, and opened fire, killing at least one person and wounding several others.

Just watched an update on FNC. Stated that at least four bodies were outside covered with 'blankets'. Sounds like it took place both inside and outside.

And yet another tragic example of why banning firearms on college campuses is just plain worthless. But it sure helps some folks to sleep at night because they're "keeping everyone safe"...

The suspect being questioned in the mass shooting at an Oakland religious nursing college was detained several miles away in Alameda, officials said
Hooray for quick response times (which, according to a 2002 Federal study and report, [
page 14 https://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles1/jr000248c.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ] are TOTALLY irrelevant, but always praised... it makes everyone *feel* safer)
School Staff & Students Are Often First
Responders
Most shooting incidents were
not resolved by law enforcement
intervention. More than half of the
attacks ended before law enforce-ment responded to the scene—
despite law enforcement ’s often
prompt response. In these cases,
faculty or fellow students stopped
the attacker, or the attacker either
stopped shooting on his own or
committed suicide. Many of the
incidents lasted 20 minutes or less.
Schools can make the best use of
their resources by working with
law enforcement on prevention
efforts as well as critical incident
response plans.

Not only that. the police are doing great job and seemed very relaxed and did the imposible to protect the students. Just 5 are dead so far. That is amazing better than 33.

I am having trouble seeing how there could things like this happening in California. Everyone knows they have very strict laws concerning gun ownership.

I'm curious to hear the motive for this murder spree. I wonder if this was religiously motivated?
