Didn't this guy know that college campuses are gun free zones?. I guess not.

I used to get emails everyweek about an armed robbery on or near campus when I went to ODU in norfolk.

One of them they held the guy at gunpoint and stole his shoes.

College kids are easy prey and the criminals know it. When I was living in North Carolina the fall was known as freshmen hunting season around Duke university because the criminals knew that idiot kids were easy prey on and off east campus. I remember one night 32 kids got robbed by three different robbers in three separate robberies. The kids thought that at they were safe walking in groups, it just made them bigger targets.

The guy must have missed the signs.



PS: Good move on the officer's part.

I worry about my baby sister, on her college campus. Her dorm is located right next door to a gas station that's frequented by some very shady characters. The employees look shady, too, now that I think about it. I'd feel a hell of a lot better if she was allowed to carry a gun or ten.
