Listening to King 5. Current reports indicate that it was an "If I can't have her then nobody can" kind of incident.

Re: Breaking: Investigators are responding to reported school shooting in Marysville,

Sad. I have some predictions.

Student will have showed warning signs. People missed them. And the lesson will be missed. That we need to deal with instability. We need to learn about social media. We need to learn the causes.

Sucks.

Don't listen to that. It will be a day or 2 till we know anything concrete. Just like every other one.

Oh god. Here we go again.
 
Re: Breaking: Investigators are responding to reported school shooting in Marysville,

My favorite News Anchor question of these events, "What made them do it?"
 
Re: Breaking: Investigators are responding to reported school shooting in Marysville,

Alright. I'm taking bets now as to how long it is before this thread degrades into yet another gun control debate.

My prediction - if everyone carried an uzi then this would not have happened. Or something to that effect.

Well maybe we as a populace can be just not bite into the inevitable debates about this that and the other and who is to blame. :eye roll:

But seriously. If we consider this a learning opportunity we can gain a lot if we look into the mentality of this kid and what got him to this point. I'm sure we will have evidence of him devolving.

How long before its the NRA's fault.

Let's try not to even bring that up. It will side track a real discussion on topics like mental health, and what is going on in the lives of our kids. Medication? Facebook? Social media? Drugs? Peer pressure?

There are scores of things that could hve pushed this kid over the brink. The question is why? I hope we talk about it. I'm guessing something like social media.

"LET'S TRY NOT TO EVEN BRING THAT UP" !!!!!!!!!

Amazing!!!! And a white elephant in the room should just be ignored also and it will soon never have been there. Totally amazing.

A story about another school shooting where innocent kids are wounded and die and we are all suppose to pretend we are the three monkey statues?

Truly amazing!!!!!!!

Well, to end your rants. It has nothing to do with the NRA.

Irony.

I never said it did. What is absurd to me is that people here actually want to pretend this incident can be discussed without mentioning the obvious ingredient of guns. Lets face it and lets be brutally honest about this - gun folks want to inoculate themselves against such a discussion. And we already see evidence of that.

look at post 7

Sad. I have some predictions.

Student will have showed warning signs. People missed them. And the lesson will be missed. That we need to deal with instability. We need to learn about social media. We need to learn the causes.

So lets look at a whole bunch of factors - instability - social media - warning signs....... but whisper whisper whisper.....

but please - lets not mention guns at this time.

One factor, the shooter.
 
Re: Breaking: Investigators are responding to reported school shooting in Marysville,

One factor, the shooter.

I disagree. I agree with Stonewall in his post 7 that we need to look at those factors. I just add the other obvious one. To that I would also add bullying, the school rules, and school security.

And I never said a word about gun control or made any suggestions about it here.

And right wing version of their own form of political correctness will not prevent that and should not prevent that.

I also want to add that I was on record a long time ago agreeing with the NRA that there should be at least one armed security person in all schools in the land. Although in this case it seems to early to say if that would have helped or not.

I haven't gotten new reports. I wonder what caused this kid to lose it?
