Attacks at Community Colleges Has Gone Too Far

Community Colleges are not intended to be the battleground to stage attacks.  Attacks could come in the form of knife, gun, or some violent rampage.

A doctorate thesis requiring years of research is not necessary to come to this conclusion, and to state that the situation needs to be addressed.  Surely there are many that concur to this.

If you were to do all of 10 minutes of research on a history of attacks at community colleges within recent years, you will probably find a bundle.

An example of what is being discussed here, a quick list:
  • Texas
    • Lone Star Community College stabbing rampage earlier this week
    • Lone Star Community College, North Harris, January 22nd this year, shooting
  • Wyoming
    • 3 dead on November 30, 2012, last year, Casper College; bow-and-arrow type weapon reportedly involved
  • Florida
    • Stun Gun attack at Brevard College, June 18-19th, 2012 thereabout
  • Missouri
    • Man found shot near St. Louis Community College, February 20th, 2013, this year
  • Connecticut
    • Threat of Mass shooting at Gateway Community College, this year, same date as immediately above, 20th of February


This list might be updated soon.  Meanwhile there are enough incidents cited that the point has been more than made.
