The Johns Hopkins University will become one of the first colleges in the country to use a system of sensors around its campus that will enable police to instantly pinpoint the location of shootings.

Yes.

America is a ****ing warzone. I just saw a 2 year old with a grenade run past my house.

EDIT: Just looked over my fence, I think my neighbor is trying to wire a ****ing bomb to his cat.

I'd think with the proper software, it would be very difficult to replicate the sound of a 9mm gunshot blast.

Reminds me of Hong Kong in Deus Ex.

Haha, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of that.
