Shootings at Northern Illinois University


CNN is reporting 15 injured at least. Classes cancelled, naturally.

And what did Obama say about it?

Crickets.

I'll check in later at his site to see what he does.

I met a few JRE supporters last year from NIU. I hope they are safe. My prayers are with the NIU community.

Update on Feb 15: Still nothing on Obama's site. Yeah, the audacity of hope. I also got after Markos, an alum, for not saying anything either.

Here's an eyewitness account.

Daily Illini has a gracious editorial and comments by student leaders and administrators at University of Illinois.
