Yup - probably Wolf BLitzer’s direct line

“,,he said they have trained officers in the school at all times (2 or 3 officers). ..”

More Scott Petersons.

From that Daily Mail article on Cruz's brother: "It added that the teen had 'surpassed all locked doors and gates and proceeded to ride his skateboard through school grounds'."

Not true. Our 2A rights are severely infringed but we can and do own firearms.

Most of Maryland is actually pretty red conservative. My county went 70% Trump and with only one exception has all Republican political leadership.

Whoever the shooter is certainly broke numerous laws before ever pulling the trigger.

In Maryland’s case, transport alone was technically illegal.

For transport, one must be going to or from a legitimate shooting activity (range), a gunsmith, a gun show or to purchase or sell said gun.

The firearm must be unloaded and inaccessible to the driver. Ammunition must be separate.

Then there’s carrying a gun onto school property. Also illegal.

Entering the building. Also illegal

If the gun was recently purchased, did he take the 8 hour Handgun Qualification Safety class, get fingerprinted, obtain his NICS check and wait the prescribed 7 day waiting period? Or, did he just go buy one from some guy?

I despise all of the restrictions in this state. This situation won’t help. The general asylum in Annapolis is still in session so they may try to speed ram more gun control down our throats. I’m sure they are feverishly writing down more infringements before rigor mortis even sets in

Clearly we need to march against violent teens, right?

Local ABC 7 Brad Bell (@ABC7Brad) tweeted this:
“#BREAKING confirmed with sources at #greatmillsshooting : 3 students injured. 1 is the shooter. A school resource officer was on duty and took action to end threat. No final word on conditions.”

I haven’t seen anything else about how a good guy with a gun ended this relatively quickly. Everyone else seems to be pointing to the “March for Our Lives” coming up next weekend.

Hmmm... given that this is CNN, what’s the likelihood of Johnathon not being a student there?

It was weird - the anchor first addressed the student with the teachers name...

And - I thought that caller was sketchy as heck...

CNN has a history of being pranked during these events.

I forget the exact event but one time, a caller sounded legit for the whole call - but was able to slip “they say the killer is Sam Hyde” in.

I swear its the same guy every time too!

According to Broadcastify EMS communications at 9:15 Eastern, two ambulances remain stationed at the school.
Several others had been staged at a nearby location. From context, it sounds like at least one went to a hospital.

The news is reporting that a school resource officer took action and contained the threat. I assume he was armed. Amazing how that works.

They must not have laws against guns in schools in Maryland.

Dominoes are stating to fall with Comey, Mueller, McCabe, etc.

Need some distractions to keep the focus off the Dems. Lamestream press will oblige.

Could have been a prank, but the kid was saying how he felt safe because the school has trained officers - kind of against the CNN narrative

Just saw on Twitter that shooter, his intended female target and a student were shot.

Sounds like a domestic deal, not a random shooting.

Hogg droppings and the Lesbian skinhead are going to have serious problems with this.

Maryland has every gun law that the Soros turds claim that they want to enact. Maryland bans standard capacity magazines. You can’t even buy a handgun without a separate permit from the government. Want to conceal carry? Forget about it. Maryland is MAY issue and almost never issues CCW permits. “Assault weapons” are banned. All handgun transfers, including person to person sales must go through a background check at a dealer.

In short, everything that the activists CLAIM that they want is in place.

However it looks like having competent trained and non-cowardly good guys with guns, on scene, who acted immediately, stopped the incident cold. The thing that worked is what the leftist clowns say will never work.

“The Florida thing failed so they need a fresh one if the stars are going to show up.”............

I made the same statement a week ago. should the Maryland shooting produce less than anticipated, there will be another and another until attempts are made towards total gun confiscation. I BELIEVE THERE IS A PLAN AND IT IS BEING CARRIED OUT BY HAVING THE MULTIPLE SCHOOL SHOOTINGS. THERE WILL BE MORE.
