in light of recent events

I received this email tonight, at 10:45pm (though I didn't check it until now).

"SAFETY ALERT

KU PUBLIC SAFETY HAS RECEIVED AN UNCONFIRMED REPORT OF A MAN CARRYING A
RIFLE NEAR WESCOE HALL. KU AND LAWRENCE POLICE HAVE RESPONDED TO THE
AREA AND ARE CONDUCTING A PERMETER SEARCH. REPEAT— THIS IS AN
UNCONFIRMED REPORT.

THE CAMPUS IS NOT IN LOCKDOWN BUT IF YOU SEE ANY SUSPICIOUS BEHAVIOR ON
CAMPUS, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY. IF YOU ARE IN THE CENTRAL CAMPUS AREA,
PLEASE REMAIN INDOORS UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE."

(it has little relevance, but I can't help notice they spelled "perimeter" wrong.)

And shortly after,

"UPDATE: 10:55
UNIVERSITY POLICE HAVE COMPLETED A COMPREHENSIVE SEARCH OF CAMPUS IN
RESPONSE TO AN UCONFIRMED REPORT.
THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF ANY THREAT AND EVERYONE ON CAMPUS IS ADVISED TO
RETURN TO NORMAL OPERATIONS."'

(and a typo)

I feel completely at ease in this world.
Maybe I should check my email before I EVER go ANYWHERE. Maybe people should stop being so batshit insane and/or paranoid. This combination makes for bad things.
