re: 50th Anniversary of the UT-Austin Clock Tower shooting (8/1/66)

I read the entire Wikipedia article the other day after the shooter was mentioned in a thread discussing long-range shots. What sticks out to me the most is that he was able to shoot for 20 minutes before he encountered return fire, and even then the ordeal lasted over an hour and a half. In the modern information age I cannot imagine he would have the same "luxury" before people would know to stay indoors.

Also, the death toll would/could have been much higher had he opted to shoot people more than once. Shot 32 people and killed 17, but he never shot at a target more than once.
