The victim was reportedly shot in the ankle. So here’s my question. Two dumbasses are fooling around in the school parking lot with a loaded gun and it goes off. Is that a school shooting? or just two dumbassess fooling around?
How many school days will be left, after the endless walkouts on anniversaries of school shootings? I guess this will prompt yet another one. Just organize a walkout and boycott anyone who thinks it’s stupid.
“The shooting happened just minutes before thousands of students across the country were set to rally against school gun violence in an event called the National School Walkout. “
Talk about timing.

Kids growing void of accountability, respect & responsibility.
That was my rival high school growing up in Ocala - most of the rich kids went there.
“A 17-year-old student was injured in the shooting and has non-life-threatening injuries, Sheriff Billy Woods said Friday. The shooter was taken into custody within three minutes of the shooting, he said.
The sheriff said at 8:39 a.m., the school resource officer heard a large loud sound and rushed to the scene where he found the victim shot. By 8:42, Sheriff Woods said the deputy engaged the shooter, identified as a 19-year-old non-student, and took him into custody.
The suspect did not resist arrest, Sheriff Woods said.
Hundreds of law enforcement officers rushed to the scene within minutes, and the first responders on scene saved lives, Sheriff Woods said. “In 3 minutes (the school resource officer) engaged the shooter, took him into custody,” he said.”
“The sheriff said the shooting was intentional, but did not offer a motive or release the identities of the victim or the shooter.”
Deputy James “Jimmy” Long of the Marion County Sheriff’s Office was hailed a hero by his colleagues Friday after he arrested the suspected gunman Sky Bouche just three minutes after he opened fire at Forest high School in Ocala, Fla. Bouche allegedly shot through a classroom door and pellets hit a 17-year-old student in the ankle. The student was taken to the hospital with a non-life-threatening wound to his ankle.
Bouche, 19, said, “Sorry,” followed by, “It doesn’t matter anyway,” to reporters as he was led from the school in handcuffs by several deputies.
“I didn't shoot anyone,” he said to reporters. He ignored most of the other questions until asked what he'd say to the shooting victim. That's when he said, “Sorry.”
Bouche was held on charges of “terrorism, aggravated assault with a firearm, culpable negligence, carrying a concealed firearm, possession of a firearm on school property, possession of a short-barrelled shotgun, interference in school function and armed trespass on school property,” the Ocala Star-Banner reported.
