You guys slacking or what? Can't believe there isn't a thread about it yet.
Sorry, can't get a link to post from my phone.
Kill my other thread please. Apparently we were typing around the same time.
Oh, and I think the whole situation is fabricated and make believe.
California has some pretty strict gun laws so there's no way this could ever happen.
If it is real [Sarcasm2] they're just gonna create more laws that aren't gonna work and then claim they are tough on crime to get reelected.

A murder-suicide happens in an apartment building ... only a local story.
A murder-suicide happens on a college campus ... national story.
I guess that's what you get with agenda "journalism".
Just goes to show, their strict gun laws just aren't strict enough and they should do more. [Sarcasm2]
Hint to libtards: Criminals don't obey laws.

FIFY. IF they ended their lives with "medical assistance" after fighting a bad 'disease', they'd be heroes*! Otherwise, we'd never have heard a peep...
*This IS coming to Colorado, btw. Take note.

Murder - suicide. Just one more nail in the coffin, of what use to be a constitutional right in CA.
It's a story because of how many Police were called in, which is kind of scary on its own.

Oh don't worry about it, it's coming to the whole country, so the fact that it's coming to Colorado is irrelevant according to some....

Fail
Once again, there you go trying to inject logic into an illogical argument.

I only caught a 30 second or so blurb on the radio earlier today. The big news seemed to be about the number of police involved. SWAT, bomb squad, and somebody else.... The reporter also said something about Los Angeles being on a "tactical alert". Is that a LA thing, a California thing, something made up to instigate fear and panic, or do such alerts take place around the country and are a non-event? I had images from "The Fifth Element" when the good subjects are told to put their hands in the yellow circles go through my mind.....
Sad day for ucla students and faculty/staff.
At least I didn't have to hear any news about that gorilla today.

Police officers in riot gear ran across campus, guns and battering rams drawn...
That must've been like a Tactical Level VII "tactial alert". It's the highest level. Requires not only guns, but battering rams as well, be drawn as officers run across campus. It's known to strike fear in even the most hardened of criminals.
Hey ladies, two new openings in the STEM fields!
Yes yes, I know that was tacky, but I couldn't resist.

The battering ram that I saw on a local news clip was attached to an MRAP type vehicle & only protruded about 3 ft. Beyond the front of the vehicle.
It's always comforting to know when the innocent get killed in Kali we can rest assured it was a criminal that perpetrated the crime. Because Kali has seen fit to take the guns away from the law abiding and made it a crime to protect themselves.

That is how I was alerted. I have my scanner set to alert to any "agency/org" that has more than 5,000 people listening to their scanner channel.
It alerted @ 5000, I acknowledged it without reading/listening, 20 mins later it was at 18,000, three mins later it was at 20,000. That was LAPD, couple other channels were starting to climb fast too.

On the one hand, I want to be outraged at blatant overreaction. On the other hand, Californians dug their own bed long ago. If they are frightened or inconvenienced by a full-on SWAT raid for a murder/suicide ... they got what they voted for. I feel bad for the murder victim, the rest of UCLA can go do something biologically impossible.

Nothing. Cloning dogs is possible.
At the risk of derailing this thread, when did they get past that milestone? It's been awhile since I've really read any cloning news.

And in similar news...
In Chicago, the other bastion of "gun safety", as of May 31st here's their stats so far this year:
Year to Date
Shot & Killed: 232
Shot & Wounded: 1307
Total Shot: 1539
Total Homicides: 259
Memorial Day weekend alone there were 69 people shot, 6 of which died.
Anyone with common sense would step back and look at these stats and realize that their anti-gun policies are not only not working but they're getting people killed.

Point taken but you're talking about Democrats. If they had any common sense, they'd be Republicans or Libertarians or God D-----d Independents ...

Yeah, that's why I prefaced it with "Anyone with common sense", knowing the Dem's just don't possess it.

Oh Stu, you need help.

Shooter has been identified as Mainak Sarkar
Interesting viewpoint:
http://heavy.com/news/2016/06/mainak-sarkar-william-klug-suspect-ucla-professor-shooting-blog-post/
This whole thing makes alot of sense now. Two good guys with different senses of what is right. The Professor took the students code. What the student didn’t understand is that when you work for a Professor, your work becomes his property. This is where the system failed. Sarkar’s problem is that he worked in industry before coming to UCLA to do his PhD. So, in his mind his work was his own, until someone paid him cash for the work. What he failed to grasp, is that the PhD is the reward for giving the professor your ideas. The Professor saw that another student could use Sarkar’s excellent code to help the group progress on the path of the research. It’s a group effort. This upset Sarkar, who kept thinking it was his own code. Nobody explained to Sarkar that all work done under the Professor’s guidance was the Professor’s to do with as he thought best. So, Sarkar thought the Professor was just evil. With a smile and handshake, the Professor seemed to befriend to decieve and steal. That was Sarkar’s “interpretation” of what was happening. Hence Sarkar sought justice, and executed the Professor, because only he and the Professor had proof of the work and transfer of ideas going on in the group, and who would believe the student over the more important professor? The fault is with UCLA graduate committee. They should clearly explain to every entering PhD student, the reality, that the work they do for their Professor, is automatically transfered to the research program in return for the eventual PhD they get at the end. Had UCLA done that, this would never have happened. IMHO
That's still a tortured reasoning of the situation. Still no reason to murder someone, and what's the benefit for the killer if they're also dead?
It's not unusual that the work done for a PhD is sold as product, even if it's just on paper.

So no fault with the guy who believed that it was OK to kill someone over some code that he wrote? [facepalm]
Yeah, that's what's wrong with this nation...
I misspoke in my previous post, he was not a common Kali criminal with guns. He's a murderer from another state who brought the guns with him.
Here's what we should soon see in the news:
People of Kali, a force of police officers highly trained (unlike you) in the use of weapons have rendered this evil man harmless. Kali has again been determined to be gun safe. People of Kali you may now go about your "normal" life, we have determined that it is again safe for you to frolic in the sun light. We, your leaders of Kali, vow to launch a full investigation as to how an evil man like this got real guns into a gun free zone in a gun free state, unchecked. Have a nice day!
When you enter a graduate program, you sign a (several) documents relenquishing your intellectual work and assign all rights to the university. There is NO ambiguity.
