1. But it's only guns. Gun protect people. The NRA tell us that all the time. Must have been

the children's fault.

2. They (the guns) didn't do their job properly...

the kids were only wounded.

3. Yes. There oughta be a law against faulty equipment. Of course, no law against who can use

the equipment. That's too much gummint.

4. here's a puzzle?

what two types of kilings do we know we are going to read about everyday? And which when pointed out angers some on this board?

5. The would-be murderer must have thought the weekend would never end,

wanting so badly to get back to school and shoot up the students who are more or less forced to attend school until they graduate.

It's somewhat like the filthy, underhanded canned hunts the Republican politicians love so much.

6. Luckily, he has crappy aim

and they were only wounded.

7. Well, then...

... this simply shows the kids need more practice!

"C'mon kids... hold 'em and squeeze 'em!"

9. I live under 10 miles from there

Heard as I wokeup. A friend of my has kids that go there. The k-12 is all one building. Too close to home. Also in middletown, at another HS, a lock down from the Madison event produced someone carrying a handgun.

10. wow. That is scary close

And to have all the kids under one roof. I'm glad no one died.
