I don't know how you guys in NWI stay.... I don't like to get within 100 miles of IL.
Due to the 'ongoing situation' the Tri-Creek School Corporation in Lowell will remain closed for the day. School is scheduled to resume on Thursday . . .
My wife got the above call this morning shortly after 5pm telling her not to report to school today.
Umm bob have you been hitting the kahlua laced cigars? I mean how could she get the call at 5PM this morning??
I read his post and missed that! In fact had to read yours three times to understand what you were implying!!! The only good thing from this story!
Have to go to Merrillville today to take wife to foot doctor. Taurus 9 riding shotgun today with the Kel Tec.
... call at 5PM this morning??
. . . It's silly to up arm yourself today because of the chance of running into this guy is far less than running into someone else who could harm you.

Yup, totally agree with you. The odds of running into anyone on any given day who will do you harm are fairly low for most people. This varies by occupation, location, etc. But the fact is that it can happen anywhere, anytime. To arm up now is illogical. To arm up everyday is, however, the only logical conclusion one can come to when assessing the facts.

gmercer308, sorry to hear about your friend. As I hear it he was shot 4 times in the right side/shoulder/arm but is in stable condition at St Anthony's in Crown Point. Hopefully he will continue to remain stable and improve.
Just talked to my wife.
The Lowell schools are apparently still locked down. Parents are able to come get their kids but the kids are locked in the classrooms and are released to the parent, 1 by 1, as parents arrive.
My wife HAD plans for this afternoon. Apparently she is going to be at the school for quite a while.
Thank you for your words.
My dad just called me today at noon. he told me Mr. Dahl called the grain elevator where my dad works and asked what the grain prices were. He also said he wasn't feeling much pain right now since he is still in the hospital and receiving medication right now. He was shot three times, 2 in the upper shoulder and then right below it. But he said he's doing pretty good. They didn't want ask any more than what he was going to tell besides just asking him how he was doing. I'm glad he's doing good and my prayers go out to him and to the other victims as well as catching this scum bag.
