As if any rule against guns on campus would prevent a lunatic from killing someone if he/she really wants to.
UW is a huge campus, with 40,000 students plus professors, staff, other people, walking around. It would be near to impossible to protect someone there from a crazy wielding a gun.
We all criticize in a situation like this, but what would you do to fix the problem? Arrest and jail indefinitely anyone and everyone that verbally threatens someone? I don't think that's a solution, either. And how are you supposed to even arrest someone you can't find?
ETA: what do you mean by "the kids were pissed that professors would act this way"? The victim was a UW graduate now working for the University in an administrative role, and I have no idea what the occupation was of the 40-something ex boyfriend, but he wasn't a UW professor!
