This won’t get more than 15 seconds on the news other than to blame the NRA and the Governor.

Yes. It fosters resentment and excuses accountability. It creates rage.

At least four people were hurt Wednesday morning during a shooting at Timberview High School in Arlington, police say.

Arlington police said there was a fight between students on the second floor of the school when one of the students pulled out a gun.

That student has been identified as 18-year-old Timothy George Simpkins who is now at large and considered armed and dangerous.

"Occam’s Razor: The kid was probably recording the teacher’s lecture as it’s more accurate than taking notes. Lots of kids do this and it’s accepted practice in schools where the faculty isn’t afraid of being recorded."

Agreed.

Another reasonable possibility is that kids are nearly constantly recording on their phones for a gazillion different everyday reasons. The fact that one of the hundreds (thousands?) of kids in a high school happened to be recording at that moment in time is pretty unspectacular.

I remember when the High-School age boys would carry 22 rifles on the bus for the gun classes after school.

They also had a collection of rather wimpy looking 22 revolvers for the kids to practice with but for some reason the boys were not allowed to carry them on the bus, they were kept in the coaches office.

All the boys carried knives, some of the girls as well...

No problems at all with violence at the school...

It was a Leave It To Beaver world...

No, but the psychology and programming is right from Hollywood. These children have watched thousands of murders in the movies they cut their teeth on. The Plot is always the same: The story begins with a “moral outrage”, some terrible thing done to ‘innocent’ victims. The Hero of the film then goes about, on a personal rampage of vengeance. The catharsis and resolution of all the pent up tension of the film is achieved by a act of horrific violence. Our children have been conditioned to do this! They are vicariously engaged in the carnage. Did you know that first time mass shooters who have played violent shooting games have been proven to be more accurate that professionally trained law enforcement? Adults have been conditioned as well. It’s deep in the heart. Without National Repentance these slaughters will continue and grow. There is no other path forward.

What kind of gun was it?
I can’t watch the video where I’m at.

Wonder if the Feds are behind this. It was very well executed. A threat at one school. Assets go to that threat while another school is attacked. Not your usual rabid nut case.

Agree...and it's not just the movies/shows and the video games you mentioned, it's also the "music" many of them listen to.

Parenting plays an enormously key role here. With most of these shootings at school, the parent(s) are either completely out of the picture...or they have no clue what their kids are up to because the TV/Phone/Social Media has raised their kids.

Plenty of kids grow up around that trifecta of social degradation but don't even think about shooting up a school or pulling out a gun (or knife) because they don't like what someone else said/did to them. The parents are a big reason why that's the case.

Just wait until AG Garland has his way and the fedgov takes even more control of "parenting."

This the big story on Fox and MSNBC. Not CNN though.
