The 17-year-old student shot in the head during the Colorado school shooting is still in critical condition. Claire Davis, a senior at Arapahoe High School in Centennial, was shot at point blank range by fellow student Karl Pierson yesterday afternoon.

Pierson had entered the school armed with a shotgun and petrol bombs, seemingly intent on killing his debate team coach Tracy Murphy.

Claire's father said earlier today that his daughter was 'not doing very well' after having surgery.

The popular teenager would have had no time to get out of the way as Pierson entered the school and started shooting just after 12.30 yesterday.

County Sheriff Grayson Robinson said at a press conference this afternoon that Claire was 'an innocent victim of an evil act of violence', 7News reported. There was no indication that the gunmen knew her or was acquainted with her.

Another US story from the UK. Has this story been covered by the American press?

The US press pretty much dropped it after it was discovered the shooter was a raving Democrat lunatic. I’m sure it is being covered in a few places but not near the national coverage it would be getting had the kid had pro-NRA Facebook posts.

Yeah, it’s a top headline on a number of services.

Prayers up for her recovery.

Only if it somehow glorified Obama. Or the Democrat party.

I notice the stories all mention that the shotgun was “purchased legally”. Methinks they will use that as a lever to make shotguns illegal. Damn gun grabbers never sleep!

Seconded. I can’t imagine being a parent and going through this.

Prayers up for this young, innocent girl and her family. I hope the evil and despicable socialist (not saying that his political beliefs drove his evil actions) is burning in hell now. At least it’s good that he’s gone from the realm of the living.

****Methinks they will use that as a lever to make shotguns illegal. ****

Most gun owners knew that was the ultimate plan when Thomas J Dodd and Emanuel Cellar first proposed a Federal handgun registration scheme back in 1962. “Rifles and shotguns would not be affected” they said.

Two years later they wanted registration of ALL firearms.

And it has gotten worse since.

The leftist perp essentially did have his gun registered when he bought it.

A question is: Did his parental units know he bought one?

In 1975 a two wing radical Democrat fired shots at Gerald Ford, President of the United States in separate acts of mental illness.

In 1981 a registered Democrat shot and wounded Ronald Reagan.

In 1984 James Huberty a disgruntled Democrat shot and killed 22 people in a McDonalds restaurant.

In 1986 Patrick Sherril a disgruntled Democrat shot and killed 15 people in an Oklahoma post office.

In 1990 James Pough a disgruntled Democrat shot and killed 10 people at a GMAC office.

In 1991 George Hennard a disgruntled Democrat shot and killed 23 people in a Lubys cafeteria.

In 1995 James Daniel Simpson a disgruntled Democrat shot and killed 5 coworkers in a Texas laboratory.

In 1999 Larry Asbrook a disgruntled Democrat shot and killed 8 people at a church service.

In 2001 a left wing radical Democrat fired shots at the White House in a failed attempt to kill George W. Bush, President of the US.

In 2003 Douglas Williams a disgruntled Democrat shot and killed 7 people at a Lockheed Martin plant.

In 2007 a registered Democrat named Seung - Hui Cho shot and killed 32 people in Virginia Tech .

In 2011 a mentally ill registered Democrat named Jared Lee Loughner shot Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. The pot smoking Loughner killed 6 and wounded 18 in another liberal shooting tragedy.

In 2011 a registered Democrat named James Holmes went into a Colorado movie theater and shot and killed 12 people.
In 2012 Andrew Engeldinger a disgruntled Democrat shot and killed 7 people in Minneapolis.

On 9/16/2013, another mentally ill liberal, Aaron Alexis, killed 12 innocents at the Navy Yard in Washington DC.

12/14/2013 Karl Pierson entered Arapahoe High School in Centennial, Co. armed with a shotgun with intent to kill one of his teachers. He shot Claire Davis, a senior, @Arapahoe High in the head. Yes, Pierson is/was another mentally ill liberal punk.

We could go on, but you get the point, even if the media and the anti gun pyschos in Congress dos not.

Clearly, there is a problem with Democrats having guns or being around them.

No NRA members, No Tea Party members, or No Republican conservatives are/were involved.

SOLUTION: It should be illegal for any Democrats to own guns or be around them.

My Canadian in-laws are rabidly blaming the NRA. So I asked “Chicago has no guns shops and a staggering murder rate, almost all black and Hispanic. How is that the NRA’s fault?”

Stunned silence.
