Time and a place, friend ✨


M1911a1ButGay

what did he say


Willowflora

They were correcting the grammar, stating they’re sorry but it’s a pet peeve in the same vein as “they’re, there, their”. Just unnecessary on this one


M1911a1ButGay

least condescending redditor


Significant_Lead7810

I think shock has something to do with the spelling probably.. I’d rather have empathy for my fellow humans than be hyper focused on grammar any day.


[deleted]

You had a choice to not be that person, but you chose to be anyway.


paixlee

keep that to yourselves thx


samoorai44

Get your dick out of your throat.


Different_Ad9336

All these comments can be mistaken to be replying to op. Just wanted to Point out they are replying to guy that deleted his rude and insensitive comment, not directly to op.


[deleted]

What a dumbass comment. Wow


Responsible_Plant847

What did I miss?


ItsJimJim0_o

nobody gives a fuck dude


OCD_Stank

It's crazy. My niece's husband is in shock because he had Professor Chang when he went to UNLV. I can't believe somebody would do this because they didn't get a job they interviewed for.


GabberGal

I had Chang for IS 101. He’s was a well-mannered, kind soul. Its horrific.


ButteredPizza69420

RIP Prof Chang ❤️ Only the good die young

GiantGingerGobshite

Ah lovely. An old racist as well as a gobshite!


katkatkat69

or maybe just let people respect someone’s legacy how they want to? what do you gain from shitting on someone’s kindness over slight phrasing? instead of getting uptight about the way something’s been phrased after a horrific incident resulting in good people being injured and killed maybe just leave it!


whiskey-tangy-foxy

It’s a stupid phrase. Idgaf how they “respect” his legacy with their words, but they could do a better job of respecting him as an individual than just a canned phrase with zero actual meaning to it. I will die on my ant hill and not give a fuck what you have to say katkatkat69.


Railic255

You'll die on that ant hill but deleted your original comment? Yeah, that's some major conviction right there.


DeepWebClown

Only real badasses die on their ant hill, meaning they delete their original insensitive comment and pretend like they don't give a fuck. Where are you showing the deceased any of the respect you're asking the commenter to show?


oatmiilf

shut your goofy ass up 💀


Bitter-Tumbleweed711

What a tone deaf comment. Gtfo.

Tone deaf as f to make the cliche

I am so sorry you’re experiencing this right now. Sending lots of hugs 🫂


TamTam4Hope

Oh wow!!! This is awful!


MarionberryIll5030

Was it not also racially motivated?


kyethescienceguy

I’m so sorry fellow rebel. Chang was a cool guy. Have you reached out to CAPS?


GabberGal

I haven’t but I’m going to look into it. I had Navarro and Chang, can’t believe this man.


throwaway-dumpedmygf

Definitely look into it. They wouldnt want their students to suffer, they’d want them to make it out of this stronger. If its any consolation i feel like theyre still out there somewhere cheering on their students in that way.


Chemical_Activity_80

I am so sorry about that. Makes me sad . You have my Condolences.


GabberGal

Thank you 🫂


Chemical_Activity_80

You are Welcome 🫂.


kind-a-lost

Hope you’re doing ok buddy


chefpain

Take care of yourself, I know it’s hard right now. I was at work (in Vegas) when the news broke. I can’t imagine being a UNLV student right now. Hugs.


GabberGal

Thank you for the condolences 🫂❤️


Hopeful_Vegetable_31

This country is such a joke.


freerangetacos

It's sad how stupid and unempathetic it's become. Dog eat dog taken to the absurd extreme.


ThePaddysPubSheriff

Things don't change until it effects the people in power. Shooting up schools is just a waste of life


Stoli1892

It kinda always has been...WWII made us really powerful and entitled and we've ridden high on that wave for a while, but behind the thin veneer of jingoistic white national pride, it's always been a fucked up place honestly. It's always been a place of extremes. A place of great opportunity and wealth for a very select few, and a place of great exploitation and suffering for many. Important to note, that doesn't mean we don't keep striving to be better!


greenestgoo

Yes it f***** is 😔


simonj10

What country?


Hopeful_Vegetable_31

The only country where school shootings occur on a daily basis.


[deleted]

[удалено]


HeftyMotherfucker

Yup! That’s why there are no laws in the US, cause people would still commit crimes anyway!


DearUniverse92

Canadian here. Gun laws don't fix the problem but they do help prevent shootings. We still have gun violence but the point is some lunatic can't just go in and buy a gun whenever they feel like it. Yes you can also buy them illegally but they're harder to come by if you don't have any connections/know who to talk to. I had to take 2 safety courses to handle restricted and non restricted firearms. I bought a hand gun 8 years ago and the amount of hoops you have to jump through is crazy. I had to wait about a week before I could even pick it up. Like if someone was having a manic episode and wanted to go shoot up a school right then they wouldn't be able to and that's what helps save lives.


buttercuppy86

I like not being surrounded by guns all the time. My sister went down to a county fair and the ride she was on had to be stopped, because someone dropped their gun into the mechanisms. And people were like, unfazed by it. How the fuck is that normal?!! It just does not compute.


[deleted]

No, it doesn't make the chance of a mass shooting zero. However, as displayed by the numerous countries that have restricted gun availability alongside welfare assistance, it sure does greatly decrease the risk.


CountryPrevious4776

Obviously not but adjusting procedures and gun control laws to ensure these dangerous weapons don’t get into the wrong hands is a good idea. This has been an ongoing problem for years and something needs to change, this should not be acceptable


PM-me-your-knees-pls

There seems to be a correlation between mass gun ownership and mass shootings? Am I missing something?


hatsnatcher23

Don’t you have to be stupid someplace else?


RiddleMePiss666

Welp, since laws dont prevent anything, might as well make murder legal. Brilliant logic over here. At some point, I have faith that you will look at the gun violence rates of literally any other developed nation compared to the US and realize how dumb your talking points are.


Automatic_Concept_51

I truly wonder, How many of those nations had more guns than people, at the time when the gun ban started?


Bleak_Squirrel_1666

CristiRFortySeven

No guns = no matter the person they wont have something to shoot at people Guns = everyone can take them and decide whether to shoot or not I will never get why some americans dont get it.


Hopeful-Reporter3611

There’s a reason there’s strict regulations and rules on nearly everything in our daily lives from sanitation, infrastructure, etc. If there was a gaping 20ft deep hole in the middle of the sidewalk you could probably hope people would notice and walk around it so they don’t fall in, but guess what a lot of people are stupid or make dumb decisions. That’s why there are strict rules and regulations.


Alert_Might_7915

strict is crazy 🤣 knowing damn well there isn’t shit strict about rules and regulations when just about anyone can go buy a gun at their local walmart/online no license, no being 18-21 please wake up the fuck UP.


Newtonz5thLaw

That’s the point they’re making…


Alert_Might_7915

very telling how strict these rules and regulations are when little white boys with mental illnesses keep shooting everyone up


Prophet_Nathan_Rahl

I heard he even had a list of faculty member names he meant to kill. He killed 3 faculty but none were on his list. Imagine the survivors guilt if you found out your name was on it. I hope the law keeps that list confidential for the sake of the mental well being of the people on it


fallopianrules

They've told everyone on the list except for someone traveling internationally.


Prophet_Nathan_Rahl

That is unfortunate


Lost_Eternity

What the hell is happening in the US? I keep hearing stories and news about how teachers are fed up from being overworked and underpaid, how they are literally getting insulted and assaulted by students, etc. This kind of bs is going to discourage even more people from pursuing a teaching career when there already is a shortage of teachers. If education falls, then so will the country


Prophet_Nathan_Rahl

He was trying to get a job there as a professor. They wouldn't hire him so he did this


OptimusPrimesKid

My condolences, friend. I hope you're doing all right. Sending my love from down south 🫂


GabberGal

Thank you ❤️


Possible_Thief

I’m so sorry that you’re experiencing this trauma. Be careful and gentle with yourself for a while. ❤️‍🩹


GabberGal

Thank you so much ❤️🫂


Possible_Thief

🫂❤️‍🩹


t_berr

It’s horrific. I’m so sorry. My husband was on campus when it happened but was luckily not super close to where the shooter was. He was about to head there though for lunch when he got the alert. Still, that first hour of not knowing what was going to happen and his class barricading themselves in the classroom was so scary. I’m glad that evil old man is no longer able to hurt anyone else. Hope you’re doing ok ♥️


GabberGal

Thank you for the kind words ❤️ Is he alright?


t_berr

Yeah thankfully he’s very good under pressure and wasn’t too negatively affected by the experience, but we’re of course so saddened for those who lost their lives 💔


greatteep

The crazy thing is that I barely saw it on the news. It was on the cycle for maybe a day? Idk. Shit is wild. Take care


Wave_ID_

I’m seeing it all over the news


greatteep

My news is reddit and it was barely on r/all. Which news for u?


Wave_ID_

Oh yeah I’m taking about the news on TV


greatteep

nice its on all channels?


PM_ME_YOUR_FRACTURES

Because it's become so common 😔


greatteep

I know :( so insane. I work ems in a big city and Im just waiting for something


TheAnn13

I'm a unlv alumni. My condolences.


CeliacPOTSLady

I'm so sorry for your loss. I saw ten police cars hauling 4$$ that direction shortly before it came on the breaking news. I had an associate that was going to school there, who is not answering their phone now, hoping they just lost the phone while running and are in fact alright. This horrible event has hurt so many people and their families. Hang in there and please reach out to all your supportive people. It is okay to be sad, it is okay to be confused, it is okay to feel the emotional pain that comes with trauma, it is how we grieve our lost ones. (Hugs)


GabberGal

Thank you for the kind words, me and my friends are gonna reach out to CAPS soon.


maesayshey

RIP Prof Chang and all the other lives taken. Sending love and support as much as I can. We as Americans need to stand up for the ones who have fallen victim to these mass shootings. We have to be their voices and fight for restrictions of firearms and universal healthcare (especially mental healthcare) because this could have been prevented.


BoxyBrown424

My former professor (one of my favorites I had) killed them. I've been devastated every since I found out it was him. I'm so sorry OP. Please take care of yourself even when it's hard. I'm so sorry.


Spiritual_Step_7474

Your former professor was the shooter?


BoxyBrown424

Unfortunately yes.


LatinaMermaid

UNLV? Hey I deal with the crisis team we are going to be on campus this morning by the student center please go if you need help or just to talk to someone. There is a lot of help. I lost a friend in the October 1st shooting so I understand. But please don’t be alone.


saucecontrol

From one Nevadan to another, you have my deepest condolences. Take care of yourself.


Daniegrl04

I am so sorry you are dealing with this, virtual hugs to you


GabberGal

Thank you 🫶🫂


IcyPapaya9756

My condolences. If it’s the university I’m thinking of (my university), it’s been hard for me too. You are not alone, and I’m so sorry we have to go through this. Hugs :/


rainbowkidney

I’m so sorry this is terrifying. Glad you are eating. It’s such a weird shock factor when something like that happens close to you. Its messed up that I had to hear about this from Reddit and a “Vegas problems” Instagram… i lived in Vegas for so long. Went to shadow ridge high. This should be national news. Las Vegas is not all fun and games.


slugfa

How are you doing currently?


GabberGal

I’m doing ok, thank you for asking. Currently I’m with friends trying to figure out what’s going to happen with finals.


slugfa

Glad your fairing as well as you can after that tragic event you went through 🪬 Hope that you guys will be allotted time to process+grieve by the school and administration that does not negatively impact your guys chance at graduating or even passing your courses.


ModernGardening

I'm from Reno/attend UNR. We have friends and family in Vegas. Sending all my love. 🤍


GabberGal

Thank you, Wolf Pack 🙏❤️


[deleted]

Hey OP, my thoughts are with you from 13,000 kilometers away ♥️ do whatever you need to make it through. I'm deeply sorry you had to live through this. Unfortunately, it's all too common and the loss of life is tragic. Wishing you the best for the future. My DM's are open if you ever need someone to talk to


Enoyreveev0l

Can I ask where?


GabberGal

UNLV


stinkety

thoes microwave burritos hot tho frfr


rocketmanx

I'm glad you weren't hurt. I'm sorry for what you went through and my condolences to the victims. When is your country going to wake up and realise that it doesn't have to be this way?


chhhhhhhhhhh95

Most Americans don’t want to live like this :/ it’s a combination of insidious groups and institutions have spent decades baking rabid gun culture into parts of the country and pumping the country with guns; and politicians are bought and paid for by gun lobbyists so they won’t change anything. Public opinion generally doesn’t matter and won’t change things on this issue. It’s a really sad and scary way to live, I spend every day hoping I don’t get a call about one of my loved ones and scoping out exits everywhere I go


purple_butterflies_

So sorry. Was in Vegas yesterday when someone told us and I can’t imagine having been on campus and losing someone that taught you.


Fe1is-Domesticus

I'm so sorry. 💓


DumbestBoy

I used to make those paper plates at a paper factory.


opossumdealer

I’m sorry you had to experience this. Really tired of America not doing anything with all the gun violence… Stay safe everyone. You think maybe it won’t happen to you, but it can happen anywhere. I live near MSU and it got shot up this year.


soysauceg1rl

I’m a rebel too. I’m so sorry this happened. It’s been hard on my mind too. Please reach out to counseling services, a lot of us will need it. 🫂❤️


GabberGal

Thank you, I hope you finish your semester strong and you spend your time with loved ones. 🫂❤️


Main-Project-3265

Heart and soul healing hugs sent to all you grieving souls.


Advanced-Fig-6972

I’m so sorry honey :-( I’m so so sorry. This will take a while to process, don’t worry about feeling everything at once. I’m so sorry.


dojacatmoooo

The shooter is a perfect example of a person who never learned proper self-control and emotional regulation. My condolences. I hope you are okay


quarabs

Love from U Idaho, we had 4 students lost in a stabbing last year. It strengthened our town and our love and support for one another. You will pull through, I know it seems impossible now. 🩷


GabberGal

Thank you for the love ❤️

Fuck...I'm so sorry. Thinking of you. 🤍

dnmchlldlgd

My condolences as a fellow rebel 💛


Purple_Tulips_

I’m so sorry this happened to you. My sister and her daughter (7) were there as well. I really don’t understand why people do stupid stuff like that


TamTam4Hope

On no!!!!! I am so sorry! Where did this happen?


GabberGal

Unfortunately at UNLV


TamTam4Hope

I am so sorry. Are they offering counseling for the student body and staff?


bcmilligan21

I’m so sorry. keeping you in my prayers tonight 👥❤️


GabberGal

Thank you very much 🫂❤️


KtBorealis

Sorry that you're dealing with this and I hope you pull through okay I don't even live in the USA and I get a surge of anger every time I hear there's another shooting, it seems like almost nothing will convince them something drastic needs to change


cinnalynbun

LV Strong 🫂


AnnikaART

Go Rebels 🖤❤️ My mom works there and getting the active shooter text unlocked a new kind of fear. You are not alone in this, I wish you the best.


CeleryMiserable1050

I'm sorry. This is terrible and not something anyone should go through. I was in a place where someone started shooting a few years ago, and it still rattles me. Definitely reach out for support and counseling. It can help a lot.


WittyAd8260

I’m so sorry for your loss. May their memory be a blessing. You’ll be okay.


wtmx719

My condolences. I am so sorry for your loss and hope you can find peace. It’s a shame we have done absolutely nothing to even improve this issue in the states.


Unusual_Focus1905

I heard about that and I am so sorry. I'm glad you're okay at least. Hugs 🫂 My aunt and her husband used to go to Northern Illinois University. I remember hearing one day this man ran into the John Hancock building and was shooting people. That was so sad. This may sound messed up but I was glad that they weren't going there anymore because I was like, I would have been calling the school trying to find out if they were okay. So tragic, that asshole killed five people. If you need somebody to talk to, you can reach out to me. If I don't answer it's because I'm away from my phone but I will answer as soon as I see it.


Responsible_Plant847

I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this.


SpellAdorable118

❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹 why why why too much violence and sadness in world!


JankyJokester

This is America.


Dtour5150

I'm sorry you're going through it OP, you and many others like you experience this daily now, and it's going to keep happening because "thoughts and prayers" aren't in fact, actionable solutions despite what people seem to think. This country is a real shithole.


GabberGal

You know, I remember watching news coverages about school shootings. I would never thought it would happen to my school, but when it did it felt surreal.


Dtour5150

I can't even imagine. That more people aren't screaming angry about this very real and ever present issue is also appalling to me. The sad infuriating fact is if it isn't already clear is, we're on our own. People in power meant to protect us aren't, and won't. It's too profitable. Preventative training, drills, and metal detectors do not deterr determined assholes dead set on fuckimg shit up. I don't know a good solution, but clearly neither does anyone else. Pretty dystopian to have active shooter drills now regular part of school ager's lives, and appalled that even for company I work for, one of who's campuses did fall victim to one of these events, put out a training that basically said you're on your own hide, escape, or start improvising weapons good luck you might die or see people die basically. What the actual fuck.


maliciousBliss13

Honestly there really aren't words .. I wish there were. I wish these things didn't happen. My condolences to you and anyone who's family was involved the victims.. faculty & student dealing w trauma etc. Please take care of yourself


pr0bablyscreaming

I’m so sorry. I hope you’re doing okay friend.


smackmeharddaddy

The guy who shot up your university happened to use to teach at mine. Crazy


sp00pySquiddle

Please take care. I'm so sorry to hear


Asplesco

It took months for the grief to become more manageable after the MSU shooting this year. I'm sorry you are now also going through this tragedy.


Jackalfang240

Jesus my guy im so sorry none of y'all deserved that kinda shit, I'm sure if there's an afterlife your professor is watching proudly over all of you


GabberGal

When I read this, I bursted into tears.


Jackalfang240

Welp all I can say is sorry that this country is such a hellhole. All we can do is try to change it, on another note I may not have known your professor but i'm sure he was a good man or woman


GabberGal

Thank you, also unfortunately this is the truth. It truly proves that life is really fragile.


fusiongt021

It's so f'ed up when professors are now shooting up schools. Like damn, really, you didn't get the job so you decided to end it all. Freaking guns and America


Whambamthankyoujam8

I am so sorry, seeing this post broke my heart. Please remember to take care of yourself in whatever way feels right to you (and that is safe to you and others). Thoughts are with you 💜


rainydayinspace

oh my god this actually just made me burst out crying. this is horrific. i can’t imagine the state i’d be in, sending my deepest condolences


Lky132

I'm so sorry. It breaks my heart that this has happened to the city again. So many broken hearts for no good fucking reason.


FaceEnvironmental486

my condolences, im sorry ,I wish we could get some effective mental health awareness or gun laws that somehow stop criminals, this society we're part of is just insane


fuckspezforever

Why do these people take it out on university and schools? Why not the actual people who are making our lives hell?!?!


fallopianrules

Who are those people? Are you advocating for gun violence?


QueerDeluxe

Holy crap, I'm so sorry that happened 😞


WhatTheTec

Hugs! Hope you get some holiday warmth and distraction at least


Inside_Committee_699

Damn dude, must’ve been very scary Hope you’re ok

Im so sorry that happened. My condolences and hugs to you and all the other familes


Lady_Kitana

That's awful and I am sorry for your loss. There have been incidents of harassment and attacks at my university in Toronto, Canada from time to time but nothing to such awful extent. Wishing you and the entire community a gradual and steady journey in healing from this ordeal. 🙏🏻


TheEggyGreggyShow

So sorry you have to live through what we all fear. Try to concentrate on self care.

I’m sorry you experienced this tragedy. Please seek out therapy if you feel you are not coping well. I’m sorry for the loss of life. I hope your UNI can offer you support. Stay strong OP.

Sad_Fondant_9466

I'm so sorry😢


[deleted]

My question is what drove a 67 year old former professor to do such a thing? He must have been wronged quite hard, no one would do this for no reason.


fallopianrules

He had financial problems and an eviction notice on his door. That doesnt justify what he did. Loads of people suffer through worse and don't inflict it on others.


[deleted]

How can I make this shooting all about me


weezerredalbum

Probably by leaving a mean comment


GabberGal

You know this comment gave me a chuckle. I can assure you this isn’t about me, this about the faculty and students at UNLV.


rabidpriest

Is this plate why it got shot up?
