To be blunt, people on average are much bigger pussies than ever.

It was pretty crazy here today. Earlier this evening I was riding my bike around to campus just for the exercise since it was nice out. When I got to the south part of campus (the north part is where everything was going on) I saw a few people talking on cell phones, didn't think much of it, then right after that I saw a group of eight or so all talking on cell phones so I thought that was really strange. I look at my phone and noticed it was on silent, then I got the message about there possibly being a gunman on campus. So I turned around and went on my bike ride in another direction to go see what was going on at the towers, the place where the girl got that message. There were so many cop cars it was pretty crazy. Luckilly no one was hurt. I lived in the towers last year so needless to say it's so surprising something like that can happen, but yet at the same time it's not because it seems like threats and actually shootings, stabbings, bombs, whatever else, are happening more and more often.
