AB, I dont assume the worst in people...lets think about this logically. Please provide a logical explanation for the arsenal this individual possessed. Also please provide a logical explanation for allowing someone who is obviously lacking sanity out on any sort of bond. And finally, if you don’t mind, do you logically believe he would be out on bail if he was a Black male found on a pwc campus? The man said he thought people were after him, is it logical to sane people...no. You are a lawyer does the government lock people up for being out of their mind? Furthermore, if the press clippings are correct he never pointed a gun at campus security or the police. He chased after them asking for assistance, there is doubt that he need professional treatment, but does he deserve to be in jail for having schizophrenia? If it was a black male, I do believe he would be out too.

Bro, you are the only person I know who could look at this event and find a way to make a argument against reverse racism. SMH. This is about a crazy person who was arrested on our campus (your alma mater) with guns, ammo and explosive devices. For some reason it seems like you are now trying to downplay the threat because he happens to be white. Please tell me that is not the case here. I am definitely saying this isnt as big of a threat as you all wnat it to be. He could have killed scores of people but did not. How is this case about race? The only people making this about race are black people. If he were black I would feel the same way...

Not that big of a threat?
The fact there have been a number of mass shooting at schools and colleges in recent months should give you pause.
The fact that A&T and other HBCUS across the country have been targeted recently for bomb threats should give you pause.
The fact that this fool had a makeshift explosive device on a college campus should give you pause.
The fact that this is a crazy man who had a bunch of deadly weapons in his vehicle on a college campus should give you pause.
I understand you enjoy being the devil's advocate on a host of ridiculous issues and you often don't even fully understand your own positions, but this is just embarrassing, man.
Even by your standards.

And also, how do we know for a fact that he is operating alone? He could have been part of a larger conspiracy and just pretended to act like a crazy lone wolf when he got apprehended by the authorities.
Setting an ambush up in the middle of the night would be the perfect time to catch the entire campus off-guard. Thankfully the A&T police department was able to jump to action when they did.
Once again: How does a homeless crazy man who is living in his car find a way to pay 10 percent of a $100,000 bond? And who put up the collateral to secure the other 90 percent of the bond?
So many questions still need to be answered in this case.

That tweet the school sent out was not a good look.

If it was a black male, I do believe he would be out too. The government commits people for being out of their mind daily. If your argument is he was insane while rolling around with that type of weaponry then he should have been Baker acted. 🤷🏾♂️ I have had hundreds upon hundreds of files of people that have done and been found with far less that were committed and/or arrested. That is reality. It is at best extremely irresponsible to let this gentleman out on bond with a simple warning to stay off college campuses. If he has an episode, what will the argument be?

Shut school down until after Easter Break. Let the powers to be get together and try to figure out how to make our campus safer. I know the leaders cannot control everything on campus but we can try to make it safer.

Your heart just breaks for these kids and their families.

Restrict traffic on Sullivan Street between Lindsay and Summit. Require The Cottage to build guard houses and provide guards for that area. I'll be at the next Greensboro City Council meeting

Require The Cottage to build guard houses and provide guards for that area. I'll be at the next Greensboro City Council meeting House parties are dangerous period. A couple of years ago a male student was also killed at a house party in East Greensboro The Cottage is privately owned and the city really can make them due anything. It seems like these shootings only occur at house parties, i haven't heard of issues over there when there is no party. If anything the Cottages ownership group should have a strict no party clause in the housing contract. You will be fined $1K or evicted if the policy is violated.

So they were having a house party at 6 PM on a Tuesday? That is what led to the shooting? I didn't see any mention of an arrest but hopefully they have a suspect.
