Columbine. Virginia Tech. University of Texas. Sandy Hook. America’s terrible history of school shootings is a list whose members can’t be named alone. Talk about any single one, and the others always hover on the periphery. But one name rarely gets mentioned among the others, the oldest and deadliest school massacre in U.S. history: the Bath School bombing.

Or an outright liar...lying to yourself.
48 people dead in this massacre.
Interesting sidenote that the Charles Lindbergh Atlantic crossing knocked this story off the front pages.
So NOT the gun lobby but the bomb lobby. Get it straight branDUHn.
> he murderer was determined to say the least. <
And that’s a key point. These monsters are all determined. None of them is going to say, “I can’t get an assault rifle because they are no longer available. So I’m going to forget my massacre plan, and go take a nap instead.”
No, they are just going to look for other lethal means. That’s why we are wasting our time trying to ban these so-called assault rifles.
Banning certain firearms will be about as effective as controlling the flow of fentanyl.
Some jerk will take this as a challenge.
Damn straight, sward. How many innocent kids do you think you could take out dropping 50,000 tons of dirt and grass on them? They’ll outlaw dirt and grass next.
Almost all....
Whenever something is "banned", black markets immediately pop up. During Prohibition, more people than ever were consuming alcohol because drinking at speakeasies became a fashionable trend.
Even at the height of the Soviet Union in the 1970s, forbidden blue jeans and rock music albums could be had at various black markets.
Gun control laws do exactly what they are intended to do, which is to punish and harass lawful gun owners. Liberals’ hatred for those who disagree with them vastly outweighs their concern for innocent lives. Caring about anything beyond their agenda is just a pretext to advance their sick dystopia.
Nearly 300 students in Texas are killed by an explosion of natural gas at their school on March 18, 1937. Due to this tragedy a scent was put into natural gas and other gasses like this such as propane.

Interesting about China: a few years ago a madman went into a school and knifed a bunch of students. He was detained at the scene. Tried, convicted, appeals, and executed within 30 days. We need to do that here of course.
Bttt
Yep, it happens a lot there. They have guards at every kindergarten in China. They have poles so they can trap the knife attackers. The poles have Ys on the end to pin them against the wall.
Oldest woman in Michigan, 113, survivor of 1927 Bath School Bombing, recalls school massacre
8f the lerps are shot y armed teachers and armed guards o. School grounds before they can do damage, or do much damage, the incidents of school shootings will drop to near zero. Those who do decide to go,after schools will be met with deadly force by armed teachers and guards, and will be prevented from doing much damage.
Democrats don’t want solutions because it interferes with their agenda to deny law abiding citizens their inalienable right to self defence
Nice. I think she looks pretty good, too!
A good friend’s father was killed by that mad man.
