Four California High School Students Arrested for Alleged Mass Shooting Plot
People ^ | October 4, 2015 | Lindsay Kimble

Four students at Summerville High School in Tuolumne, California, were arrested for allegedly plotting a school shooting, the Tuolumne County Sheriff said in a press conference on Saturday.

Sheriff Jim Mele claimed that the students involved were planning to "come on campus, and shoot and kill as many people as possible at the campus."

The Summerville High School administration contacted the sheriff's office on Wednesday to report three of the students, who were identified by classmates who found their behavior suspicious. The authorities immediately launched an investigation, which involved interviews with the suspects, as well as school staff and students, and two search warrants. During the investigation the sheriff's office says that they discovered that a fourth student was involved, Mele said on Saturday.

All four students' families were cooperative during the investigation, and the suspects were subsequently turned over to the Tuolumne County Probation Department after arrest on Friday, according to Mele.

Summerville Union High School District Superintendent Robert Griffith said that "within a very short period of time [the school district] knew they didn't have an immediate threat to safety," which is why the school didn't go into lockdown. He added that "about 1,000" phone messages were sent to parents on Thursday relaying information about the incident.

What is wrong with public schools that is making these knuckleheads want to shoot them up. The NRA isn’t the problem here. It’s seems more like the Department of Education is the problem.

The left thinks the state can control evil. This is what they miss:

“Men are qualified for civil liberty in exact proportion to their disposition to put moral chains upon their own appetites—in proportion as their love of justice is above their rapacity;—in proportion as their soundness and sobriety of understanding is above their vanity and presumption;—in proportion as they are more disposed to listen to the counsels of the wise and good, in preference to the flattery of knaves. Society cannot exist, unless a controlling power upon the will and appetite is placed somewhere: and the less of it there is within, the more there must be without. It is ordained in the eternal constitution of things, that men of intemperate minds can not be free. Their passions forge their fetters.” — Edmund Burke

We really need to abolish the current education system and start over from scratch. Local control with full parental involvement should be the new goal.

Current educators couldn’t “educate” their way out of a paper bag and the administrators are much worse. They’ve totally ruined education and are fleecing the taxpayers. Only to feather their own nests.

Most of these mass shooters are on ADHD medication which alters brain function and is often quite harmful to the centers of the brain that control judgement. Psyco-tropic drugs are typically at the heart of these types of acts in our schools.

I believe it all began back in the 70's when they took GOD out of the schools.

Order of priority.

1. Gay/Lesbian/Transgender

2. Muslim

3. Ilegal aliens

4. Black

5. Anyone involved that doesn't fit in categories #1 through 4 but blames guns rather than the students.

The way to do that is to shut down the government schools. Only in private schools can the curriculum and policies fully promote and integrate the religious values taught in the home.

In the very best situation the government schools would promote a lukewarm and generic God. The risk is that the children would learn to be comfortable with lukewarm and generic religiosity.

I find that the left uses that “Burkean” principle. It says that men are of intemperate minds (less control within), and therefore must be controlled (more control from without).

I believe it all began back when Adam and Eve's son killed his brother.

Regardless of their ages, I hope the judicial system gives them very long sentences, as an example to others.

Bread and water, hard labor 6 days per week.

What is needed is complete privatization.

Town controlled socialist-entitlement and monopoly-cartelK-12 schools soon become county controlled socialist-entitlement and monopoly-cartel schools. These then soon fall under the control of the state and then the federal government.

> Mele said there is no further threat to students or staff at Summerville, and said the names of the suspects will not be released as they're juveniles. He added that no further details will be released at this time.

and I recently found out that the government tracks these types of medications and the patients who use them. A medical progession told memthat someone with administrator level access can query the system to generate lists that match whatever criteria they search on. It does make you wonder.

Adding:
6. No conservative Christians or Jews
7. No conservative veterans groups (except a few soldiers who get medals for Photo-Ops with Comrade Obama)
8. No conservative journalists
9. No refugees/exiles from Communism (Cuba, No. Korea, Red China etc) or from Islamic extremists ranging from Boko Haram to ISIS to Somalia to Libya to Hamas and Hezbollah.

10. Anyone else who is an American patriot, esp. if they are white males between the ages of 5 and 90, WW2 veterans are the exception except when it comes to visiting their own memorial in DC during Govt shutdowns. (My daughter and granddaughter went around the barriers at the WW2 Memorial to see it in honor of their then living grandfather/great grandfather Lt. Col. James Lucore (USA ret, IWO).

The Park Service guys just moved aside. As for the rally cry of those patriotic visitors, “YES WE DID”.
