Not a fan of mob justice, but on the other hand I can't get too worked up over it. I just hope he was guilty and they didn't grab the wrong man.

That's the issue I have with it. Everything should be decided in a court of law, and efforts should be made at all times to remove any corruption or bias that would impede this.
If they start attacking people who were wrongly accused, it's going to hurt their cause and reduce sympathy for them. This seemed pretty clear-cut though, but I. agree with the police that dispensing justice isn't the job of the people.
After all, this kind of thing is all too common in what should be a very good system...

Just in case murdering people who happen to disagree with their political views/be in the wrong place at the wrong time wasn't enough for the IRA! Their crimes apparently extend to traumatising alleged rape victims.

So some scumbags right to carry a gun is more important than the right to exercise freedom of speech, further evidence that anti-gun control people should die in a ****ing fire.Quote:
A 2004 law prohibits Utah’s universities from enacting policy that "in any way inhibits or restricts the possession or use of firearms."
An email to Utah State University threatened "the deadliest school shooting in American history" if the school did not cancel a lecture Wednesday morning by a well-known feminist writer and video game critic.
"Feminists have ruined my life, and I will have my revenge, for my sake and the sake of all others they’ve wronged," read the message from a sender who claimed to be a USU student.
The message threatened to rain gunfire and shrapnel upon a lecture by Sarkeesian, who created a feminist video blog and a video series on misogyny in video games. She was scheduled to speak at 11:30 a.m. at the Taggart Student Center Auditorium.
"A Montreal Massacre style attack will be carried out," warned the message, sent to multiple departments and individuals around campus. "I have at my disposal a semi-automatic rifle, multiple pistols, and a collection of pipe bombs."
After consulting with local, state and federal law enforcement agencies, the university decided to host Sarkeesian’s lecture as scheduled, said USU spokesman Tim Vitale. The university planned to increase security for the lecture and forbid backpacks in the auditorium.
However, they wouldn’t forbid guns.
"Requested pat downs or metal detectors after mass shooting threat but because of Utah’s open carry laws, police wouldn’t do firearm searches," Sarkeesian tweeted from the account @femfreq.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, IF PEOPLE ARE TO OWN A FRIKEN GUN MAKE THEM HAVE A LICESNCE LIKE WE DO IN AUSTRALIA, seriously we went from having 8 mass shooting in as many months to 0 for at least 10 years I know of
None since the one that caused your ban if the facts that pop up after any US shooting are true.
