up to 18 shot at Northern Illinois University
Breaking on CNN


My deepest sympathies to NIU. I pray the fatality number is low... :-(

7. I remember when that guy walked into a McDonalds maybe 25 years ago
He shot up the place. Many died.

It was shocking.

Now shootings like that are ... commonplace.

What the hell has happened to this country?

10. It's another rich legacy of Reaganomics.
Better to build jails and prisons than to actually deal with the mentally ill in this country. :eyes:

On edit: On CNN, they're saying it was a shotgun, and that most were shot in the head. What a fucking sick world we live in.
