RIP all . orang medan tohh . 
in any kind of "situation" you are always told to stay inside or where you are. unless its a fire drill of course. the university/authorities were delayed in their response time but how can you notify all +26K ppl on campus??? its impossible.
and if you have been to college or are planning to go then you would know that most of the students would be sleep until at least 1030am the earliest. that is 3+ hours b4 the first shooting.

Well, if you say .... people died today because of hunger on and today happens to be 9/11, people will think you're rude and have no manners. Why? The answer's simple IMO, 9/11 happened in America, so I'm supposed to care. It's a rather racist point of view in my humble opinion.
Perspective is important in these things.

As much as I think this country has its head screwed on wrong when it comes to access to guns, this whole incident marks two major issues that -- when combined -- constitute a lethal cocktail for American society.
There certainly is, of course, the ready access to major firepower. That's the gasoline added to the fire.
But the ignition and the oxygen comes from mental health services in this country. Ever since the Reagan era government made massive cuts to mental health care programs in this country, homeless populations swelled with mental health cases. Even more dangerous on an individual level, we saved a few government bucks to allow dangerous people to run unchecked and unmonitored in society. People who at the violent extreme, surrounded by ready access to weaponry, are primed for situations like this.
So while you can point fingers at the lack of gun control in this country, that's only part of the problem. Thank you Ronald Reagan, and I'm so glad we named an airport in your honor, for eliminating most of America's mental health programs to turn loose so many homeless on the streets and psychopaths in the Wal-Mart gun stores.

The biblical references and the references towards Jesus were everywhere in his video. Perhaps we should refer to him as a "Christian Terrorist". Had this been someone with Qur'anic references he would surely been called an "Islamic Terrorist" and the nation would have been on high alert.
