A longtime College of Southern Nevada sociology professor is facing felony gun charges in connection with an on-campus shooting on the second day of classes.
Mark J. Bird was charged last month with discharging a gun within a prohibited structure, carrying a concealed weapon without a permit and possessing a dangerous weapon on school property, court records show. He was found bleeding from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to his arm about 8:15 a.m. on Aug. 28 outside a bathroom in the Charleston campus K building.
It gets much better:
One college employee told police that he held Bird’s hand to calm him down as others tried to stop the bleeding. While waiting for authorities to arrive, Bird said he had shot himself in protest of President Donald Trump, police noted in their report. The report did not elaborate.
Report: Las Vegas professor shot himself in arm to protest Trump
I know you already are thinking about other places this idiot could have placed the muzzle of the gun in order to make a long-lasting impression. But allow me to give you a sobering thought: If they are willing to shoot themselves for small-minded political crap, do you think they will have any compunction shooting you or your loved ones just because you are in the wrong side?
Is no longer a question of “IF” but “When.” And unfortunately, I think it will be sooner than later that we may have to react.
Hat Tip Rick R.
Obviously, he should be fired for Diminished Capacity. Not that the requirements for a professor of “sociology” are all that high, but he doesn’t seem to meet even that very low bar of brain function.
Just think – by no later than the end of the day this will be in the list of school shooting used by Bloomberg, the Demanding Mommies, and all.
Not so far. I am keeping an eye on it

The report did not elaborate.The only reason we haven't see mass political violence on a large scale from the Left is that they are focused on high-profile targets, and most people don't wear their politics on their sleeve for every stranger they encounter. We've already seen that wearing a MAGA hat in public can incite an attack. But most people don't, especially in regions where anti-Trump sentiment is strong.I wouldn't want to be a conservative or Republican in California the day after election day 2020, that's for sure.

Huh, well that’s special.
Not to be confused with the Department of Inhuman Behavior.
