It wasn't as bad as some (2 dead, 6 injured).

He originally started with a shotgun but it jammed without firing a shot. He grabbed a pistol from his vehicle and fired into the bystanders.

Police were on scene quickly (FSU is always crawling with plain clothes officers and unmarked cars) and shot and wounded the shooter.

I've seen a full on homeless man, with dreadlocks and scruffy blanket (urban Ghillie suit) sitting outside of a Waffle House. The local clubs were letting out and there were gunshots in the parking lot.

Dude stood up and radioed in shots fired and pulled an AR from the bag he was sitting on.

Tons of unmarked cars around campus with lights mounted in the grill and illegally tinted windows.

It's a heavy security presence that you wouldn't notice unless you were around it a lot.
