My wife works on campus very near Folsom Field and the Champions Center, and saw officers go by the window with drawn sidearms.

Just goes to show that "anywhere, anytime" is in full effect. Funny that the university property boundary does not turn away criminals. I wonder why...

Now the question is whether the now deceased perp was a student, transient, or other??? The Boulder Creek corridor is right next to the building in question, so a scum bag vagrant on a bad trip is not a bad bet.

At least concealed carry is an option for those who choose to protect themselves on campus.

But was he in a clown costume?

Do we get to go protest and get free stuff now?

...and burn-this-bitch-down!!!!

[colorider]

And 9news.com still showing an arrest was made. Nothing about the cops blasting the fool.

If he was, good shoot.

If he wasn't, good shoot.

And cue the "couldn't they just have shot him in the knee" people.

In completely unrelated news...

Good thing we have gun control or this stabbing business could really get out of hand.

Now I guess we need a knife turn in program like they did in the UK.

I just heard that too. Everyone is a little on edge over there right now apparently.
