Don’t let satan in. Today is the first day of Lent and he is already stirring up trouble.

Or maybe painting a red tip on a real gun to make someone THINK it’s a toy. A second of confusion on an armed defenders part is very useful for a bad guy.
Never assume. Believe nothing you hear and only half of what you see.

I’d bet on it. From reports from a fellow student, the were in alternative school. In other words, low to no achievement, druggies, problem kids.

Uh, 19? Isn’t there already a law that you have to be 21 to purchase a handgun?

It should be dead. Dead bodies victims everywhere and the armed perp. What questions about guilt? Instant execution. And if its illegal DEPORTATION of the entire family.No mercy for psychos.

A school is a perfect killing field. Many unarmed targets locked into their rooms without any means of defense or escape.


This has to stop. Let’s stop funding illegals in our public schools, and use that money instead to have a significant amount of uniformed and undercover (trained members of the faculty would be perfect) armed security at every school. Make
It so you can’t get in with a weapon and if you do somehow, you won’t get far. Because you don’t know which of the faculty are the armed response.

I would not put my full faith in witness accounts. Why? For various reasons but especially this one. In moments of stress our eyes see what our brain expects to see. So were there several bodies, one in a pile of blood or were there one or two injured students? Both scenarios are horrific but as a kind of self preservation we process what we see to have the worst explanation. The better to get the heck away from there. So who knows what they did see. But a smile suggests either that she was nervous or that she is caught up in the sheer relief of being o.k.

No doubt too in several hours the fact he was a known threat will be lost to push the approved narrative of gun evil.

“Cruz appears to be an AntiFA whack job with his face coverings. It’s the typical model for antiFA terrorists.”

“Pacific Pundit” needs to be real careful with that. Those pictures show him wearing an “U.S. Army” hat and a bandanna across his mouth.

How many school officials on campus were armed with guns ready to use on this armed wacko?

” . . . Cruz, 19, had been identified as a potential threat to fellow students in the past.”

BIG uh-oh. This is scary. I hate that he had such easy access to the school and its students.

In his profile picture, he was wearing a MAGA hat.

Just reported 17 dead with people still in surgery.
