Beginner. Good start though.

“This article doesn’t discuss that, and it is entirely possible that the mother was the one that purchased them.”

The media generally avoids putting women in a bad light and/or highlighting when a female engages in wrongdoing or is responsible for a tragedy. Many times the names and pictures are withheld, and no interviews conducted.

The msm behaves similarly with muslims and minorities unless it is somehow in their interest to do so.

I think most people know why this is.

Your points taken, that still doesn’t negate what the real legal issue is here.

NO gun free zones, possibly some no open carry zones but these should probably be voluntary. Constitutional carry, open or concealed to anyone of responsible (voting) age and a citizen except those who have done something to forfeit their Constitutional rights. Firearms ownership is a right, NO taxes on firearms or ammunition. Firearms ownership is a Constitutional right and the Second and Tenth Amendments declare it a RIGHT of individuals, when our Constitution uses the term “people” it means individual rights.

There was another armed student there but the teacher in the class wouldn’t him leave to help.

Unless someone is in immediate proximity to an active shooter, it is NEVER a good idea to take your gun and go looking for him/her. LEO WILL mistake you for the shooter and you’re in deep doo doo then.

1) Hunker down
2) Ensure you have proper cover
3) ONLY fire if the shooter is headed your direction and is closing in.
4) Leave everything else to LEO.

I’ve seen in the paper people charged with having weapons under disability, so I think possession is forbidden to those drawing it.

NO, it’s not that she is a woman.

It’s that she is a BLACK woman with a sister who is an attorney.

“There was another armed student there but the teacher in the class wouldn’t him leave to help.”

1. Must have been a brave teacher to stop an armed man from doing whatever he wanted to do. /S?

2. By what authority did the teacher prevent the student from leaving? Isn’t that unlawful detention or kidnapping or something?

What really pisses me off he was black. His released photograph was altered. Check out his mother.

That’s what I said in post # 3. The security guard was unarmed.

I think he had mace, which would be of little use in the situation that unfolded.

That’s a borderline “arsenal” per the mainstream media. Just so you know what you’ve got.

That’s just me. The rest of the family has more. My favorite is my dad’s WW2 .30 carbine.

In CA, they are comparing lists of mental folks with CA’s list of de facto registered guns.

Then they visit said folks, to get all those guns.

If a handful of the students in the class were carrying concealed weapons, the outcome would have been different.

There may have been a few deaths, but not nine or ten, and fewer people wounded.
