The state controlled “media” has started a new fad. Shooting people. It’s the “next big thing” these days.

High school, likely majority black.

Doesn’t have the pull. Most white libs see it as typical black behavior, and they thank their atheist that they live in a “good” neighborhood.

No deaths? Only injuries? Rhetorical question: Why is this national news?

Then again, AJC isn’t “national news”. ;-)

Just saw, on TV, a young white man in cuffs being put in a police car. Described him as the suspect in the shooting.

Right now any kid with a gun knows he can get instant national fame by shooting up a school.

Thanks MSM/Democrats for all the "gun-free" zones.

The Atlanta Police Department says they have two people in custody in connection with the shooting.

The school is on lockdown, and authorities say parents are not being allowed to pickup their children at this time.

High school, likely majority black.

I'm presuming that Carver High was named after George Washington Carver. Since FReepers are, by far, the most intelligent collection of people on the web, I'm hoping that someone can shed light on whether G.W. Carver was a homosexual or not.

He never married, shunned advances from women (or so the story goes) and did live with a man, Austin Wingate Curtis, from 1934 until Carver's death in 1943. Upon his demise, all of Carver's estate went to Curtis. There are varying views on this and I'm sure a FReeper can set the record straight (pun very much intended). I don't trust the credibility of 95% of what's scattered on the web but I do have near total trust in the Free Republic membership.

Thanks in advance to those I've pinged for their long record of accuracy and for anyone else who may have researched the matter.

Just for clarity the shooting was at Price Middle School, not Carver High School as first reported.

Okay, thus far we have local media ONLY covering the story; we couldn’t even get the right school ID’ed on the first try; and we don’t know how many casualties.

We DO know that the school is locked down, kids separated from their parents, and the mad media dash to the mikes has yet to commence.

According to the radio reporter at the scene the school is surrounded by dozens of parents trying to get their kids and the school won’t release them. Might get ugly.

Thanks MSM/Democrats for all the "gun-free" zones.

There were a dozen or so comments after the article blaming Republicans for the shooting. I posted something about liberals creating "no resistance zones" for lunatics and shortly after the comments were closed.

Yes...that key bit of data came in during the time I was preparing my post. Thanks much.

Still, since at the time I was composing the message it was thought to be Carver High School, the question still stands about the homosexuality (or not) of George Washington Carver. There's so much misinformation out there from people with an agenda that I know I can depend upon FR members to cut through the garbage and provide the truth.

For example, here's one such article from an overtly biased source. That alone may be sufficient to conclude that Carver was not a sodomite since this "Truth Wins Out" website is likely spinning the facts to fit their pro-homosexual (I steadfastly refuse to use the term "gay" for this perversion) stance.
