I wish there was a Dem running to take guns away. I would vote for him/her!

We have their thoughts and prayers. Doesn't that stop bullets or do they just call fake news when children actually die?


Idiot. Blame the shooter, please.


I blame the shooter and the easy access to weapons.


I blame the shooter and the easy access to weapons, especially assault-style rifles which make it even easier to shoot more people efficiently.

This past week in my hometown, I saw a man with a gun on his hip coming out of a restaurant. No problems, peaceful. Same week, another man robbed a local grocery store at gunpoint and took the police on a chase with girlfriend and baby in the car. Care to guess who'd more likely to own the legal gun? I wonder what would have happened if peaceful gun-owner was in the store at the same time that robber was there. He surely would have noticed the gun on peaceful man's hip. Would he have committed the crime as a result?

Per the perusal of Foxnews comments every time something like this happens, it's:

-That we don't have enough armed guards at schools ("lots of retired veterans would be happy to guard schools!") ignoring that we have mass shootings with armed guards anyways, and at other locations besides schools including concerts, malls, movie theaters, workplaces, churches, and on and on
-That we don't arm teachers (most teachers don't want to be armed, I know many of them and they have enough to worry about let alone carrying a loaded gun that kids could easily get ahold of)
-That it's our lack of family values as a country/society in the USA that is to blame (specifically democratic erosion of traditional family values)... basically a "shrug, can't do nothing about that till we have better morals!" response that is useless
-We have enough gun laws, more won't do anything

blah blah blah. Conservatives have absolutely nothing helpful to say and it keeps happening and rinse and repeat.


Tbh I just pray it happens at schools filled with the kids of Republican elites. Then only way they change their tune is when it happens to them. They don’t give a f#ck about anyone else.

That said, I wish for a world with strong gun control and an absence of school shootings.


Wow. Just wow.


Yes, I am also shocked at how ghoulish the Republican elites conduct themselves. Democrats have been begging for 20 years for sensible gun reforms and the Republicans just grow more extreme, egged on by our lunatic Supreme Court.

If we are going to have a country with mass shootings, I’m going to pray that it mostly affects those who enable it to happen and block good-faith reforms. Reap what you sow, and all that.


Multiple posters on this thread have literally said they hope the dead children have Republican parents, and you're calling Republicans "ghoulish?" I've never seen/heard Republicans hoping for dead children.


1. Multiple?
2. I have read way worse on FoxNews, so please don't think these anecdotes on either side make any one better.

What are your proposed solutions to prevent mass shootings, not just at schools but grocery stores, churches, concerts, and more, as even armed guards have failed??

Well, the individual came in through a side door which must've been unlocked. So start by locking doors.

Faux News bobble head just said it’s because “SIDE DOORS”. If we could just control those now going forward, we could prevent this type of thing from happening in the future. SIDE DOORS.


If the side door was not locked, it's a lesson sadly unlearned.

Yet another comment that ignores that mass shootings happen in lots of places that don't just include schools. Grocery stores, movie theaters, malls, concerts, churches, and on and on.

Let’s hope her parents will be charged if it is found those guns were theirs


Her parents should be locked up for life with no parole. The are responsible for their daughters actions. Let them rot.


Their daughter was 28. At what point are parents no longer responsible for their kids' actions?


Come on. The PP probably assumed the shooter was a current student as that is often the case. My guess is if the PP knew the shooter's age, then they would not have suggested it.


That's what you get for assuming, especially since the school stops at 6th grade. Why wait for facts? Just assume and spout off!



Even if her parents aren't legally responsible, they clearly did a crappy job raising her. They definitely are to blame..parents that are loving, present and strong, don't raise school shooters.

So lucky there were not more casualties. Shooter likely stopped herself.


That's not long at all, actually.

Why do you demand to know


Cheap way to get people mad at the authorities and skeptical of the news.

Police took her down. That has been reported.


Don't get in the way of a good PP story. I like to see the perhapses and maybes here.

If only the forest had more trees, the wolves would take slightly longer to get to the footpaths. But, look, it's much too early to talk about who has been flooding the forest with wolves.

Most likely suicide by cop.

But 14 minutes is a long time from first shot to her death. Shooter likely voluntarily quit once she snapped out of her fugue state. People are not prepared for what happens when they shoot individuals.

All I’m saying is that 14 minutes is a looooong time with a more motivated shooter armed with two assault rifles. Casualty count should’ve been much higher, but something happened to disrupt her.


Good ol' DCUM

Why is it so important that I’m the shooter was female when the vast majority of shooters are male? The problem isn’t men either. It’s guns!

It's not a comment It's simply an observation. I secure the entrances to my own homes.
