Yep, heard him say it with my own ears.

Off-duty police officer hired for security at the school. Confronted the student immediately and forced/persuaded him to drop the weapon, then arrested him.

So THAT’S why the mainstream media are not covering it! The official word from democrat central is that only criminals are to be allowed to have guns, not cops, not guards, and not ordinary law-abiding people.

It was all over the news here yesterday while it was happening and until the press conference.

But, (not) oddly enough, the lengthy Atlanta Journal-Constitution article this morning mentions not one word about the shooter being disarmed by a guard.

Had the kid pulled it off....By now, we would have known that it was an assault weapon and the kid had 20 magazines strapped to his body.

“”The obvious question is how did this get past a metal detector?” Davis asked about the gun. “That’s something we do not know yet.”

Probably one of those evil plastic guns that Rats believe can magically avoid detection.

The off-duty officer should have blasted the little creep and we wouldn't have to go through all the liberal hand wringing about this “poor baby” wannabe killer.
