Penn’s Great Year Gets Even Brighter: Law Student Unloads Glock on Spies

Penn's Great Year Gets Even Brighter: Law Student Unloads Glock on SpiesLaw students scare us. They’re really smart, they work insane hours, and are obsessed with how precisely a class rank of 16 and GPA of 3.84 in their third year will land them the second clerkship with a senior justice in the ninth circuit court of appeals.

Law students also scare us when they fire 15 shots from their Glock into the apartment of other students they are convinced are spies, as a Penn second-year did Wednesday afternoon. The targets, two Drexel kids whose Indian nationality and biomedical engineering focus apparently enraged the Quaker, were unharmed. The suspect (no name yet) will be charged with aggravated assault and other crimes, the DP reports.

Let’s recap Penn’s year, shall we?

To be fair, Penn did produce the bosomy star of Box in a Box, so the year hasn’t been a total wash.

    What the article forgets to mention is that the guy who fired the 15 shots . . . drumroll, please . . . was a Yale undergrad.

    Mystery solved.

    Do you prefer a semi-wadcutter at 185 grain, the round nose at 230, or the copper jacketed hollow point. You are all really so gangster, especially to us foreignors, President Hugo Chavez called you satan at the UN and the whole world laughed, gallows humor as we wait for america to kill us all. We're dead men walking and you're discussing the subtleties of tough ivy leaguers. The dissociative state you're in killed us all.

    A Quaker, too? Aren't they supposed to be all about peace and stuff?

    Then again, Nixon was a Quaker...

    We're so gangsta. Though anyone's more gangsta than cornell, that's for sure. TO be fair though, the visiting student who got shot wasn't near campus. But we're still badass.

    As a Princeton undergrad and handgun enthusiast, I have to say new jersey gun laws suck balls.

    Fortunately, I am just a hobbiest and living in princeton I do not need a glock to protect myself, since I wouldn't be able to get one if i wanted. I shoot on weekends in Bucks County, PA.

    If I lived in PA, though, I would be strapped. Especially if I lived where Penn is.

    Hey, they forgot about the bottle smashing damaged ear guys and the screwdriver guy and the continued murder trial of that Wharton girl. Also, west Philly is always fun.
  • honestly...
    Penn is so badass.

    Please look into how to use that expression.
