    At UM-Flint yesterday there was an alert issued about possible gunshots. They immediately went into their lockdown protocols and the police responded. It was quickly discovered that there were no shots fired and the "all clear" was given in a span of 12 minutes. This led to canceled classes well after the incident. Grief counselors and mental health services are being made available. The reaction was as if there was an actual shooting with mass casualties. Some students say they were traumatized by the site of the police with guns. The pussification of society continues and college kids seem to be more afraid of the police than a (possible) school shooter.
    To know our nation is fucked, look at the colleges. What you see there will be mainstream in 5-10 years

        • But I get what some are saying. For a lot of WWII, the average civilian was limited to 4 gallons of gas a week. Sugar, coffee, anything that came in tin cans, were all extremely limited. New cars pretty much didn't exist for years. If your car blew a tire, enjoy the exercise.

              • And my post wasn’t throwing stones at the kids, DSL; rather, it threw stones at the admin. You know, people my age.

                Do you get bonus points for making a certain number of off-target-didn’t get the point posts? If so, you ought to be able to cash them in soon for new pair of yoga pants or a kale crisper or a gallon of almond milk, whatever it is you buy.
