I don't know guys, what is going on? I teach high school and we don't deal with this stuff. Maybe the kids are leaving high school spoiled and used to getting their way, and when they get to college noone babies them, so they lose it.

This is all I have right now from local news, thank God!


Ferrum College near Rocky Mount, Virginia is currently under lockdown after the school's emergency alert system was activated Tuesday morning.
Ferrum's Web site confirms an emergency alert was issued just after 8 a.m. Tuesday, and that the school is under a lockdown. Students are being asked to stay indoors.
There are preliminary reports that police are on campus searching for a suspicious person. School officials confirm there are NO injuries, but say the school will remain under lockdown until further notice.

I hope everybody stays safe and they catch whoever did the shooting.

What's bad is almost everyone of them has said something to another person about doing it, yet they don't go to the authorities.
