I have an idea! Let's have anti-"bullying" PSAs 24/7 telling kids how victimized they are if somebody laughs at them.

That will surely stop it!

Kentucky wasn’t a mass shooting.

The guns have always been here. Liberalism is what’s new. Shootings are a symptom of a deeper problem.

In a country of over 300 million with liberal gun laws. That’s not many.

🤔. But, but, but.....I thought the antis have been pumping the "fact" that these happen at least once (maybe twice) a day. You know what's coming. 😡

There is an old phrase, “The less virtuous a people, the greater its need for laws.”

And gee, nothing has happened yet in Vermont, Maine, and New Hampshire (but in California though).

"But it was one of at least 11 shootings on school property recorded since Jan. 1, and roughly the 50th of the academic year."

I do not believe the statistics. They may be including in anything they want unrelated to schools.

What is needed is more people shooting back.

Soft targets will always be soft targets.

True, but the article never said that it was. Neither were the other school shootings listed.

As usual the times is wrong. I do not become numb when I hear about another school shooting, I do become numb to the pro gun control bias.

How come we ever hear how these children got access to these guns and what motivated them to kill? I suspect because it doesn’the help the gun control message but I’d also be willing to bet a lot of these problems originate at schools controlled by the left and I doubt the media will ever lay blame at the feet of the NEA.

Says who, .gov? 10 plus people shot and it wasn’t a ‘mass shooting’?

Gunfire ringing out in American schools used to be rare, and shocking. Now it seems to happen all the time.

Probably just a coincidence but it seems to coincide with the time that liberals kicked God out of our schools and started teaching the kids that they can be any sex they want and should spend more time playing with themselves.

But that’s the thing. If falls in line with what is happening all the time in Chicago. In a way, what makes it so special is that it happened in a geographical location where it doesn’t normally happen. And since it’s only one event in that area, it doesn’t make a trend or anything. It’s just another gun crime. And only one.

I guess it’s only “many” if it’s your child.
