Three students killed in mass shooting at Michigan State University
“This is a uniquely American problem,” Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer remarked about the gun culture.
EAST LANSING (Michigan), Feb 14: Three people were killed in a mass shooting
at the Michigan State University late on Monday night. Two people died at the
Berkey Hall of the academic block and the third was killed at the student union
office. Five others are in critical condition at Sparrow Hospital.
Deputy chief of campus police Chris Rozman said all of those killed and injured
were students.
After a few hours of the shooting incident that took place at 8:30 pm local
time, the police identified the gunman as 43-year-old Anthony McRae who shot
and killed himself at a place about five km away from the campus even as he
was being pursued by the police. McRae was not a student or university employee.
The police have not been able to establish the motive.
The gunman started shooting at the academic block and later at the crowded
student union office. A student told the ABC News that the gunman entered his
classroom and opened two to four rounds of fire forcing students to look for
cover. Some students broke the window glasses to escape.
After the suspect's photo was released by the police, a citizen from Lansing
recognised and identified him. He was on probation for 18 months until May 2021
for possessing a loaded, concealed gun without a permit, said a report.
Michigan university has about 50,000 students, 19,000 of them living on the
campus, 145 km northwest of Detroit. There are 400 buildings on the campus extending
to over 5,300 acres and that has been a problem in responding to the shooting,
police said. The campus will remain closed for two days.
“We have no idea why he came to campus to do this tonight. That is part of
our ongoing investigation,” the police said.
In 2023 so far dozens of people have died in 65 mass shootings. There were
more than 600 mass shootings in the US last year.
“This is a uniquely American problem,” Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer remarked.
WHAT TO DO, WHEN... : IndiaTravelTimes does not guarantee the
authenticity of the video (above) of the episode of the flight turbulence at
Durgapur airport on May 1, yet this is being put out with a view to
familiarising the ordinary fliers with such probabilities lest they are
caught unawares and fail to react rationally to handle such terrible
situations. The 'eternity' can last up to 15 minutes. Tighten your belts,
believe in your pilot and shift your thoughts to reduce disabling anxieties!
Rest assured, the aircraft can rock and fall but not more than a hundred
feet anyway.
During the event, nearly 50 other people, including bull tamers and spectators,
were also injured. Jallikattu is a bull-taming sport, which has been part of the
festival of Pongal in Tamil Nadu.
Whole localities are sent into quarantine in China using force if someone is
symptomatic of covid. The quarantines are metal boxes set up in far away
camps. The authoritarian regime is resorting to draconian methods to check a
new wave of the epidemic in the country that has already locked down three
cities currently. On the other hand, the US presents a contrasting scenario
where in the name freedom large sections of people refuse vaccination and
assault health workers who mandate the covid restrictions.
Virgin Galactic's Richard Branson, who opened a new chapter in
space age last month by launching the first manned private flight

Can we ask the vaccinator, "Do you pull back the plunger and
then push the vaccine? Do you Aspirate?" When the vaccination
for covid started there were reports of worrisome incidents of
adverse events post immunisation, the serious complaints being
non-specific blood clots. These related to viral vector vaccines of
human and non-human source: AstraZeneca and Janssen. How
did it happen. There are various views. But here is a suggestion
how simply it can be prevented.
Marking a fierce but interesting competition among the
billionaires, adventure specialist Richard Branson launched
commercial space travel from his 'Spaceport America' on Sunday,
pipping the world's richest man, Amazon's Jeff Bezos, to the
post, becoming the early bird to fly to the edge of space as the
first private space tourist nine days earlier than his rival.

While the rationalists debunk the episode as a ploy to make up for
the losses in offerings during the corona lockdown, the believers
stick to their claim, they have seen it after all! The claim of
Shankaralinga temple resembles the miracle of Ganesha drinking
milk in Delhi way back in 1995. Although they belong to two
different branches of science.
