My prediction is over Thanksgiving when some male gets pissed over anti-Groper Don the Con comments from a family member.

(29,674 posts)On grounds with a few weapons. He tweeted that it would be a day the town would always remember. A teacher forgot something in her car, saw him in the parking lot messing with a weapon and immediately went inside and called for a lockdown. The young man led police on a Chase until he stopped at a parking lot at the local university,where he committed suicide by cop. His original plan was to take out as many as possible.
The local university has had issues with weapons on campus.
