CNN —
An active shooter is on campus at the University of Oklahoma in the city of Norman, the school said in a tweet Friday night.

“There is an active shooter at the Van Vleet Oval. Take immediate action now. Run. Hide. Fight!” the University of Oklahoma said in a tweet just before 9:30 p.m. CT.

By 9:45 p.m. CT, another tweet indicated that campus police were investigating “possible shots fired” on the campus. “Avoid South Oval area. Shelter in place,” the university said in the tweet.

This is a developing story and will be updated.

And the beat goes on….incredibly sad, so incredibly avoidable and yet so incredibly predictable. Wild West we are, and Wild West we’ll remain, until/unless the people take back their power. By whatever means necessary.
I worry everyday for my granddaughters.

Well apparently we have gone from fake bomb threats to fake active shooter threats. It did sound odd to have it happen after business hours so it makes sense

the founders obviously did not intend for us to address this issue
Well, if you don't fix our complicated mental health system first I can't support doing anything about this. Also, you can't keep mentally ill people from having guns when they are a danger to themselves or others like you can commit them against their will when that's the case because due process (even though there is due process just like with involuntary commitments). Never mind that you want mental health care for all and have advocated that for years. Never mind that every time you propose some potential action for the problem I oppose it for one reason or another. And never mind that I don't want one single cent of new taxes to pay for it until you cut something else. Besides, you aren't a gun expert and no one can take you seriously because of that.

4 dead.

At least 6 others injured including 2 policemen, one in critical condition.

The lone gunman is dead. He was a former bank employee.

The gun was an "AR15 style" rifle.
