IF I NEED A DEPUTY-—I would be happy if one got here in less than 20 minutes.

LARGE COUNTY

I used to work with a woman who lived in a little town at the far end of the county; no police department in the town. She had an evil ex-brother-in-law who actually burned down one house she lived in, and kept threatening her with all kinds of property mischief, including trying to burn down the house she then lived in. I asked her if she had called the cops, and she said yes, but it wouldn’t help, because it would take them 20 minutes to get there, and he was long gone by the time they arrived. Thankfully, though I live in a small town of 3,000, it’s the county seat, plus we also have a police department. But even at that, we have our own means of protection, should the need arise.

However, mass school shootings are 95% white bread teenagers on psychiatric med

Depending on how you define "mass shooting." If you take out all the urban and gang shootings, yeah.

He looks like a white dork, and dorks around here are usually leftists/progressives.

The last tranny shooter was able to buy the weapon using the other gender/ID.

"they have a cultural propensity to not value formal education."

All one needs to do to confirm this is to look at when a society/country/continent established schools and universities.

These pre-date the trans-atlantic slave trade (which also includes black African's being involved, typically kidnapping and selling other tribes' people)...so "white oppression" or "white supremacy" on the African continent can't be used as a valid excuse as to why they didn't build and maintain universities or similar institutions of learning across the African continent.

List of oldest schools

First overall...in England - The King's School, Canterbury, England (597)
Then Switzerland - Flade [de], St. Gallen, Switzerland (ending 7th century, exact date not clear), founded by Saint Othmar
Germany - Willibald-Gymnasium [de], Eichstätt, Germany (c. 740), founded by Willibald

And so on...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_oldest_schools

List of medieval universities

1088 - University of Bologna - Kingdom of Italy (Holy Roman Empire) - Bologna, Italy - "The first university in the sense of a higher-learning, degree-awarding institute, the word universitas having been coined at its foundation"

Several other European Countries named.

Nothing in Africa.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_medieval_universities

List of oldest universities in continuous operation

1088 University of Bologna - Italy
1096 University of Oxford - England

...

1909 French Algeria (Algiers) - University of Algiers

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_oldest_universities_in_continuous_operation

The oldest University on the African continent, circa 1337 was the University of Timbuktu. It was actually the combination of 3 mosques...naturally, run by muslims teaching islam. It ceases to exist after 1591.

Someone on the radio said they think this is the 5th trans or LGBTQ+ identified shooter. A trend like that for white supremacists would get wall to wall media coverage and WH denunciations. Not on this one.

Keep listening....

His name was Colby Butler... can’t find FB page... he has facial hair (not very successfully).

Another article posted here said he was Dylan Butler, not Colby.

Someone online said only the principal was killed. Take it with a grain of salt.

Another article (or poster?) said a 6th grader had been killed. Obviously this is a high school though, so dunno if he took a stray round walking by outside, or this is incorrect, or what.
