Subject: Another Shooting Leaves 3 Dead On College Campus

~Thread-killer~

Article

The attack occurred before 9 a.m. (7 a.m. ET) at the physical science center, said Rich Fujita, a spokesman for the college. Police indicated that the weapon on campus was a "bow and arrow type," Fujita told NBC News.

Interesting choice of weaponry. Silent and deadly. After all the hoopla surrounding recent firearm casualties in the US, do you think this will affect the debate on such items in public hands? I wonder if people will still blame the weapon itself and not the person wielding it, as they've done in so many firearm cases....

Unsure. The guy may have just noticed a lack of security and was simply trying to make more guards for the school.

The argument still stands that some weapons are way too efficient at mowing down crowds of people and way too easy to get ahold of.

My stance on the whol gun thing is that they're fine, but people really don't need to be owning automatic weapons.

What does that have to do with a 3 people dead by bow and arrow?

At least the killer has good sportsmanship. It does take skill to use a bow.

Title said shooting, I assumed it was a firearm.

My bad for not properly reading.

Recon Number 54 -
If they are still looking, then while holding the snarl, I let drool start to drip from my mouth, I stand, curl my fingers into claws and with a hunched over crouch, I then make slow and deliberate steps towards them. When I get close enough, I let them hear my agonized and gasping growls and then, if they continue to stare, when I get within arm's reach? I kiss them on the nose, and run away giggling.

So when bows are banned, what next?

Slings and Pebbles?

Wouldn't it be an archering and not a shooting? Also I expect anti-gun people to jump on guns in this situation without reading the article.

  • 11.30.2012 11:44 AM PDT

Well that changes things... Next thing we know they're going to be anti bow and arrow people.

Already had one poster do just that. I expect more. I originally had "Bow and Arrow..." in the title, but then I wanted to see how many anti-gun nuts i could bait in here by just saying " Another Shooting".

"Shooting" is correct for both the act of firing a firearm and bow. " Launching " or "Releasing" is also correct when referring to archery.

Dude, grow up and move on. Krunch made a mistake and has already apologized after another user pointed it out politely to him. There was no need for you rudely mock him after he apologized for his mistake, and there is no need for you to continue to bring it up. It comes off as very petty, especially since YOU are the one who purposely created your topic in a way that would mislead posters. Don't be an asshat.

So I' an asshat based on what now?

My response was posted at the same time of his, and by the looks of it, he knew I wasn't mocking him for the sake of making fun. I only changed the wording of the thread title after the first guy responded, but either way, no matter how I word it, the story is the same. Your perception of what you link the word shooting with is what I was after.

I simply wanted to see how many would actually read the OP and content without having a kneejerk reaction like some people are want to. Yes in your mind, I need to 'grow up' . Interesting logic.
