(Emphasis added).

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.

Inside the bathroom, campus police found a $100 bill taped to a mirror along with a note that said, “For the janitor,” according to Bird’s arrest report. On the floor of the restroom was a black-and-white, .22-caliber pistol and one spent shell casing.

...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.

A campus-wide alert was sent about 9 a.m. the day of the shooting, deeming the scene safe and alerting students that the firearm had been recovered. Except for a short mention in the lengthy September edition of “The Chronicle,” the college president’s monthly newsletter emailed to staff, the college did not disclose any more details about the shooting.

The brief update was at the bottom of the newsletter and did not name Bird as the suspect. Federico Zaragoza, who in August was named the college’s ninth president, wrote at the end of his newsletter, “I appreciate all of the expressions of concern and interest, and I pledge to keep everyone updated should the situation change.

Should have buried the idiot professor.

 

[LockStocksAndBarrel]

Almost a bit of a clean up to the gene pool.

Next time, up the caliber.

This is what we're up against? How the hell do we not have Constitutional carry in all 50 states? These people give idiots a bad name.

If only they would all do this.

 

[femurphy77]

Too bad he missed.

The remarkable thing to me is the reaction of the college. This guy did something that pretty much all of us recognize as rather loony and has been charged with several crimes as a result of it. Nonetheless, according to the article, the college tried to cover it up and hasn't imposed any disciplinary actions.

If only they would all do this.

Yep, I am okay with all angry leftists shooting them selves.

 

[GodFearinGunTotin]

Well...this proves the anti-gun people right in one respect: there are some people that just have no business with guns, they're a danger to themselves [strike]and others[/strike].

what a dumbass!!!!.......he should have practiced more.....

Yep, I am okay with all angry leftists shooting them selves.

I just wish they had better aim.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

what a dumbass!!!!.......he should have practiced more.....

Maybe they could practice on each other.

 

[ghitch75]

Maybe they could practice on each other.

great idea!!!!!...

Clearly he's not a gunny, or he would've used a .25ACP.

 

[Hatin Since 87]

At least he thought of the janitor.

 

[DeadeyeChrista'sdad]

So stupid it hurts. Fortunately, it also hurts him this time.
Will he learn from it?
The world waits in horrified anticipation.

 

[Bennettjh]

So... He wasn't successful. I wonder if he meant to be.
