What’s with all the school shooting scares in the last few weeks? First, there was a situation at Western Kentucky University. Then, two students were killed at the University of Central Arkansas. And, just the other day, there were rumors of a gunshot at Upper Iowa University that turned out to be just a firecracker.
 

C’mon, keep the guns for killing poor defenseless animals and leave them out of schools.
