I've said it before...

the only time I watch the news is on presidential election night, and that's for the laughs. I get my news from AW. I have no desire or interest in watching everything that's awful in the world. 

A good deal of wisdom and restraint in this imo.

This whole incident is making me sick. I don’t even want to turn on the news. This was done to small children

Dumb fucks don’t have anything to say anyway

I should follow your lead with this

I have gotten to the point where I almost never watch national news of any stripe.

We all want everyone to be safer from this kind of evil and violence. We just differ on the means to achieve it 

Because you have a tiny little cock.

If only those children were armed than this shit would have never happened.

I think you just agreed with me that the 2nd amendment is bad.  You maybe don’t realize it -  But you just did that.  

Jason doesn’t understand most things he says.

How do you know he's yelling? Maybe he softly whispered into its ear.

Was he also wearing a gas mask, a crash helmet, and an electricity repellant? If they were only carrying guns then they're just dumb enough to be Texas school cops

Just as suspected this kid’s family was all fucked up. 

Neighbor says gunman had fraught home life

Ruben Flores, 41, who lived next to Salvador Ramos and his mother, tried to be a kind of father figure to Ramos, who had ”a pretty rough life with his mom,” he said.

Ramos grew up living with his mother and his older sister in a home on Hood Street, in what Flores called a “quiet neighborhood.” Flores and his wife, Becky Flores, would invite Ramos to barbecues at their house and for sleepovers with their son, who was a few years younger.

Ramos was a quiet child, who went by the nickname “pelon,” Spanish for bald, because his hair was often cut so short when he was younger, Flores said. But as Ramos grew older, Flores said, problems at home became more acute and more apparent to neighbors. He said his son’s friendship with Ramos fizzled about four years ago. He described seeing police at the house and witnessing blowups between Ramos and his mother.

Ramos moved from the Hood Street home to his grandmother’s home across town a few months ago, Flores said. He said he last saw the grandmother on Sunday, when she stopped by the Hood Street property, which she also owned. She told him she was in the process of evicting Ramos’s mother, Flores said.

According to the Houston Chronicle the kid was wearing an empty plate carrier. Basically just playing dress up.

homeschool or private school. the overwhelming majority of these shootings seem to happen at public schools.

100% of church shootings happen at churches. So she should probably avoid those as well.

Props to him for hiring Jose Mota to write his talking points.

Ramos had hinted on social media that an attack could be coming, according to state Sen. Roland Gutierrez, who said he had been briefed by state police. He said that the gunman “suggested the kids should watch out” and that he had bought two “assault weapons” after turning 18.

“assault weapons”

They were shot not lit on fire. It’s a horrible situation but this is sensationalism. 

They were shot with 5.56 ammunition at close range. He had some 375 rounds on him according to some reports that I've seen. Who knows how many rounds he fired at these poor children and their teachers. Once he got into that classroom they didn't have a chance. Once again, it took a long time for police to get in there, much too long.
