Are We Really Safe Here?

So last night I was chillin in my friends room, and we all heard a loud POP. My first instinct was that someone just got shot, but everyone else thought that it was a skateboarder. Since the sound came from a close proximity I looked out the window to see if I could see anything. The first thing I saw was a white car do an immediate u-turn in the Panera parking lot, turn on flashing lights and speed toward the BP gas station. As I am watching the events taking place at the gas station, more cops start speeding down the road in pursuit of the shooter. Everyone at the gas station took one look at the guys body and drove away in a hasty fashion. After we observed the scene for a good while, we made out the persons body lying limp in a puddle of his own blood. This was a sickening thought. It was quite obvious that this person was dead just laying there so lifeless. If he even had a remote chance of survival then they would have brought in an ambulance, which they never did. I know this kind of stuff happens around here quite often, in fact my roommates and I saw the same thing happen right by the Cathedral that we walk past everyday. The chilling part is that it happens so close to campus, and we are never even alerted. After seeing that guys body I'm really going to think twice about what I do at night.
