Makes you think IQ tests should be required. Too bad about the innocent bystander.

Three people were shot at a community college north of Houston during an argument between a student and another man Tuesday afternoon, authorities said.
The shooting occurred at Lone Star College-North Harris, 20 miles from downtown Houston, about 12:20 p.m. CT (1:30 p.m. ET). Witnesses reported seeing two men arguing in a courtyard outside the library when one man pulled a gun and shot the other, sending students scurrying for cover.
Both men were hospitalized with gunshot wounds, as was a maintenance man who suffered a leg wound from what the sheriff's office said was "crossfire." Authorities have not yet stated clearly whether both men or just one had a gun.
KHOU-TV, citing a law enforcement source, reports that one man shot the other and then accidentally shot himself in the buttocks.

Doesn't make me feel good nor bad. I'm waiting for the details AND the facts before I make a decision.

Apparently, two of them were armed and did hurt themselves.  Make you feel better about it, Wayne?
