DURHAM, N.C. (AP) — Police shot and killed an armed man who came onto North Carolina Central University's campus after he exchanged gunfire with officers, the public university said Tuesday.

The man was tracked to the school by Durham police late Monday after he took a bus to leave the scene of an earlier police response, university officials said in a statement. Campus officials locked down the school's buildings between 10:15 p.m. Monday and about 1 a.m. Tuesday.

"We have a very open campus," he said. "We want our students to have the freedom to go and come on campus, and if we put barriers up, fences up, gates up, then we become less of a university, and we'd look more like a penitentiary." http://www.wral.com/nccu-police-shoot-kill-gunman/12917832/

They are so close to grasping the illogic of free citizens disarmed, and of the difference between a university and a prison. A mere sign declaring UNIVERSITY doesn't open minds closed by fear and ignorance.

They fully understand...but it is more a matter of control and delusion than anything else.
