Thats why everyone should carry guns, probably would have been one or two dead, including the shooter.

RIP what a shame

Heard its up to 32 and atleast the gunman is dead. Although you do have to wonder what his motivation was for this.

Dude, the strange thing was there may have been 2 separate shootings. One began at one side of the campus at 7:15 and another 9:15.

Gun man was a young Asian male.

I agree with you 100% on this. If i could carry a handgun i would. It doesn't matter what application or test they would make me take.

Providing you plead self defense I'd say no, but you still might be charged with illegal posession of a firearm, or they might let you go with a stiff fine and a slap on the wrist regarding the circumstances of this situation.

Soda
you would be arrested and charged for the gun and shooting like the other guy, but the DA would probably not pursue the matter and you would get community service and a fine. That's just a guess. It may also become an issue if the handgun was a stolen KGB Tokarev...then you may have other issues to contend with.

You would be charged with having a illegal firearm and using a illegal firearm. Most likey like the others said, you would't be pushed all the way for the maximum penalty. But i'm sure you would still have to get the minimum charges.

Exactly, I'd don't think you'd have a snowball's chance in hell if you whipped a fully loaded Kalishnikoff out of your duffle bag Soda.
