    Default Philadelphia Community College Gunman

    I was watching TV when the news hit. "ACTIVE SHOOTER" in Philadelphia community college.

    then, no ones injured, no shots fired, gunman is missing.

    Turns out, the "gunman" has a permit to carry.

    Witnesses say that someone told security that he had a concealed gun, when confronted, he pulled it out...panic ensued

    Police say he was fighting with a classmate over a girl then "brandished" a firearm, and allegedly threatened classmates and fled the scene.

    "A terrifying ordeal" I think most of the terror came from the heavily armed militant swat going from room to room.

    He may have had a carry license but he broke a bunch of other laws apparently.

    He should be punished by the fullest extent of the law. And if he is in fact an LTCF holder he should be tared and feathered in addition. For giving us all bad publicity.

    Assuming what is reported is actually true.


    I'm sure there are at least four or five versions of this story. Not condoning anyone threatening another person or misusing a firearm and/or committing a crime, just withholding judgement until I know some facts.

    Im with you. Notice how the story just dissolved into the Maya Angelou story. Facts must be coming out that make it not so sensational.

    I bet it was not as bad as they make it seem. But I will wait until the actual facts come out to judge.

    Ok, I meant if found guilty in the court of law.

    I can see him being a re-actor to the agressive opponent, that had to display firearm, given the act of it is a deterrent.

    charging him with four felonies as of this morning. One is possessing a firearm on school property. Why would that be a crime if it isn't a k-12 school?

    got to love the fox 29 reporting too.. one of the interns or something goes there and they had him on camera talking about the experience. he said "a gun in school.. it's crazy".

    Wouldn't it be ironic if the class the student was taking at the community college was gunsmithing? Maybe he was taking a broken pistol to class as a project?
