And Around We Go Again

Breaking News -

Shooting breaks out at Lone Star (Community) College near Houston Texas. Argument in the library between 2, 3, perhaps 5 people leads to gunfire ... 3 hospitalized, 1 said to be “a” shooter. There may be more than one shooter. Wounded said to be shot in legs. The shooting may have taken place somewhat later than when the argument happened. Gang related? Revenge? All is cloudy right now. The story will emerge over time, then our masters will tell us what the “truth” is in a few days. Cops everywhere, searching nearby woods, school in lockdown. Multiple eye-witnesses to the shootings.

Lone Star College is a Gun Free Zone.

Lone Star is in the home district of (D-TX) Shiela Jackson Lee, who was speaking publicly about the need for more gun control when the story broke, and when interviewed on the phone by Fox, said that the college was “highly diverse”.

At least one of the wounded may have been caught in the crossfire. Updates as they are available.

UPDATE VIA CNN: [Updated at 3:59 p.m. ET] An unidentified Lone Star College student who says she witnessed some of the shooting told CNN affiliate KHOU that an argument between two people preceded the gunfire.

A gunman, she said, told someone: “I don’t want to fight you; I’m not trying to go to jail.”

The witness appeared to reference only one gunman; it wasn’t clear whether she saw a second gunman. She said he “actually turned away from the situation” at first but eventually pulled a gun out of a backpack. She said she heard about nine shots.

“I think it was a bunch of crap that could’ve been resolved and never should have gone that far,” the witness said.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
