@stop and frisk when a Columbia student eventually gets shot by an illegal handgun in the community, maybe campus politics may shift rightward ever so slightly…
@Anonymous You gotta work on your trolling dude, even I could tell what you were up to. Be a bit more subtle and maybe you’ll actually fool someone into giving an earnest reply.
@Anonymous Liberals never learn.
@Anon Why was this not also sent via text?
@Anonymous Because it involved non Columbia people in a non Columbia area.
@Anonymous When grammar goes to the wayside, these things seem much more frightening.
@puelto rico lo hace mejol kbron Big deal, when I was in my hometown for June I heard gunshots at least twice a week, almost always between midnight and 3AM.
…that is the most depressing thing I’ve ever written.
@Great Neck I feel you, brother.
@Anon It’s a big deal to that person who was shot and his family. The one upmanship is tired.
@Anonimal Where was my further updates?
@Anonymous > further updates
> copy-pasting more email blasts if they come
@Anonymous Holy shit, these events always seem distant and inconsequential, but this one is actually scaring me. 123rd and Amsterdam is not far away and I am in that area frequently.
