I think because we live within 100 miles of a border (two-thirds of the United Stateā€™s population does) we forfeit our fourth amendment rights.

Iā€™m not exactly sure on the particulars although I do know about it, maybe someone that knows more about it can chime in.

I go to a smaller university, and itā€™s strange they will report when students pass away from heart attacks or natural causes, but when one of our students takes their life (whether that be on campus or at home), very rarely is a school-wide email sent notifying us.

I canā€™t get accommodations in college without jumping through a hundred loops and filling out a six pound packet even though I had a 504 plan in high school, and have endless documentation for my ADHD induced by PTSD, generalized anxiety disorder, and OCD. At that point I gave up.

For a student considering taking their life, the last thing theyā€™re doing is jumping through hoops and taking the time to fill out that much information. If our college was the size of WPI, our rates would be on par with theirs which is sad considering how much smaller of a school we are. I apologize for the rant, it just pisses me off.

ā€œAny lawyers want to explain the legality of thisā€? That made me laugh.

Well, Iā€™m not a lawyer, but the prosecution would destroy any motions to dismiss the case on the grounds of a fourth amendment violations. The firefighters had a duty to make sure nobody else was in that building that could be harmed. They couldā€™ve just overlooked the fact there was enough fentanyl in that apartment to kill thousands of people - and not call police, but a firefighter is most likely not going to keep their mouths shut given they save lives daily. Kind of counterproductive.

If the victims know each other, it could be someone they knew who did it because they knew where theyā€™d be at that time. If the victims were wearing some sort of gang symbols, it could be gang related. If the victims did not know each other that well or if it was random (the person didnā€™t have any reason to shoot all of them/nobody knew theyā€™d be there/etc.) we may have a bigger issue on our hands. Then again anyone that shot six people and is on the run doesnā€™t have much to lose.

Article also didnā€™t specify how many people were at this afterparty, 8 people, 30 people, or 100 people. All of these factors make a difference.

I donā€™t know why you feel the need to keep going but I donā€™t have much scheduled for tonight.

LMAO thatā€™s hilarious - Iā€™m not even going to respond to that because yes I do. Where do you think Iā€™m from? Mars? The United Kingdom? Me and my roommates laughed at your responses.

I thought I was going to get an aneurysm for being concerned about the situation, and the fact law enforcement hasnā€™t released certain information that would let the public know whether or not if they are in danger.

I donā€™t think you want to know what Iā€™m studying. šŸ¤£šŸ˜…

The news article makes it sound like a cake walk, just saying. No mention of if people should be concerned because it was random, if all of the victims know each other, etc.

Iā€™ve realized people in Massachusetts really donā€™t care about something unless it happens to them, a child, etc. Same with the drinks getting laced en masse in MA. But yeah, itā€™s a them problem - not an us problem.

They causally drop they donā€™t have a suspect, or even a description. I mean, how many bullets were fired, was this person intending to kill? Is there any footage from nearby? I heard fireworks and went on the page to see what was happening - and I saw this instead šŸ˜…
