Wait, its a "Korean" Christian College?

I can't actually imagine something like that existing, and the article doesnt seem to say anything like that.

Founded in 2004, the school's founder and president is pastor Jongin Kim and the Chair of the Board is Youngkyo Choi. It is affiliated with the Praise God Korean Church in Oakland and Shepherd University of San Francisco.[1]

Oikos has a School of Theology, Music, Nursing, and Asian medicine. It was licensed by the California Bureau of Private Postsecondary Education on May 13, 2011. It is also accredited by the state Board of Vocational Nursing and Psychiatric Technicians. In 2011, the school applied for accreditation to teach acupuncture.[2]

guess shooting up somewhere is the fucking norm.

god help us.

who?

No, not shooting up just somewhere, it's shooting up a place where you're unlikely to face armed resistance. Notice how people go on killing sprees in churches and schools, yet nobody ever does it at NRA meetings or rifle ranges. It's location, location, location.

Its not that uncommon in the Bay Area, or any place that has a big Asian population. I have a friend that sends his girls to a Chinese Christian school.

I see that gun controls are the primary debate in the comment sections of the new sites.

What is a Chinese Christian school?

Just like an American Christian school except all the activities are in Chinese??

Means everyone there is (mostly) chinese.

Yeah. The kids are mixed and don't really look Asian, but I believe most of the people who go are either Chinese or have a Chinese (national, not just ethnic) parent. I think they are also learning Chinese language there, as well as some Chinese cultural stuff.

I heard somewhere that in China or Chinese people in general that mixed kids are highly desire and are treated with respect, socially.

Well mixed with White that is. :D

What makes you think I wasn't being serious? There's a reason certain locations are popular for psychos intent on killing people and it's not adequate parking or clean restrooms. The perceived lack of armed response is one of the key elements, people don't go on killing sprees in areas where they're likely to face overwhelming return fire.

Add to this the fact that he took off after his first reload because he didn't want an all out confrontation from SWAT; instead, he ran and hid in a grocery store after hiding the weapon somewhere. If he was truly insane, he would have just kept firing and been taken out by SWAT or a sniper.

He knew exactly what he was doing, and the police have said he has expressed absolutely no remorse whatsoever. He was there to kill someone in particular, and when he found out they weren't there, got even more pissed and took it out on the secretary and a room full of students.

Only Utah has a state law that says it's legal to carry anywhere it's legally permitted, including schools, colleges and universities. The chances of the next school shooting being in Utah are lower than anywhere else, because anyone who isn't literally insane isn't going to go to school with a gun and face the chance that any one of the teachers or administrators (or, in colleges, fellow students 21 and over) could take them out before they fire their first shot.
