Another High School Shooting

  • gut
    These manic-depressed kids used to just off themselves, now they go out in a blaze of glory and it won't stop until every student at every school has to go thru a metal detector.

    That's not going to be enough to stop a school shooting. Someone wanting to do something like this could figure out a way to get their weapon(s) of choice into the building another way.

    I suppose a shooting is worse than getting an air hose shoved up your ass in shop class.

    This can't be real. Murder is banned in this country, so no way it could have happened.

    Or they just shoot kids in the parking lot or on the bus or just outside the school. There has to be some kind of cultural change in America that we just aren't going to accept this shit. A good place to start would be being able to prosecute parents / guardians of shooters whether they off themselves or not. And I mean extreme hard "wipe them financially out" kind of federal prosecution. A few of those and it would start to grab some idiot parents attention and make them more aware of what the dark, sullen, argumentative, Goth little shit living unnder their roof is up to.

    What has change in America over the past 30 years?
    That would compel individual to think, act out and do this?

    Few thoughts
    Thirty years ago … We went hunting
    Learned early the responsibility of a weapon
    Saw what a weapon could do and the devastation of our action
    Our action and behavior of violence had consequences
    Grow up hard or just get your ass kicked
    You don’t make the team you earned the right to be on a team
    Parents took responsibility and control
    Disappoints is a fact of life, get over it and do better
    Set down dinners at home with family
    You fuck up don’t call mom or dad ..
    your ass will get beat when you get home
    Work, physical hard work … achievement
    Failure good don’t let same thing happen again
    No excuses, No blaming … it’s all you

    Kid was Native American and an accomplished hunter - saw pics of him with elk he'd killed. Parents are well known and affluent in the community. Bring them to their knees and start setting examples.

    Sheriff said the little shit invited the 5 people he shot to lunch and then showed up at the table and pulled out a .40cal. These kinds of shootings have to become Fed Offenses and whoever was this POS legal guardians need to do serious time. Will it stop this crap? Probably not...but somebody is aware these kinds of kids are fucked up and capable of pulling something like this and if people thought they might be held responsible for what their kids might do, they'd start keeping better tabs on them...or hopefully the damn kid just wipes them out and not innocent kids at school.

    Fify. Black kids are killed by black kids every day and it doesn't reach the media. It kind of does away with their racial divide agenda.

    After I started this thread, I found out a person from my hometown and high school, had a kid that attends this school. Knew the former schoolmate lived in Wash. but never thought about a connection. Makes this type of BS hit home a little more

    Had that happen with the Sandy Hook shooting. I have a friend and occasional business partner whose son goes there. Fortunately, he wasn't injured.

    Quite frankly, I don't think this can be stopped by means of preventative measures. Metal detectors won't ultimately solve the problem, as there will be alternative means for getting weapons in the building. If you're not going alone, you can have someone go in clean, open a bathroom window (or any window to which they have access), and get the guns in that way.

    Or hell, maybe people will simply walk in after getting their hands on explosives, most of which won't set off a metal detector unless encased in metal.

    I think Pandora's box is wide open.

    Around the same time Columbine happened, there was a shooting in Arkansas where there were two kids, one went in the building pulled the fire alarm and the other was outside picking kids off as they came outside.

    I see the Warden has lost his job in Lima after the Chardon kid escaped a couple weeks ago. That little fuck is one twisted mofo.
