I’m expecting the liberals to pull a school shooting in mid-to-late October or first week in November, at the latest. To rally the leftist forces for the mid-terms.

Now that is major tinfoil, I readily admit it.

However, INCREASE school security ESPECIALLY during those times.

Let’s say I’m wrong and I hope that I am. It won’t hurt to have additional security measures in place. And these days, there’s no excuse for it not being there.

Count on it.

Oh, of course. Liberals are nothing if not ridiculously-hypocritical.

I wonder if at least one concealed permit holder may have helped the death toll from being any higher? Or is this another place where carrying concealed is not permitted?

The body count... they tend to underestimate these things when a killer or killers are on the loose...
