i have an idea, let's arm more teachers, or should it be students to protect themselves from teachers?

 

[sandorski]

It's almost as if the more people with guns there are the more likely a gun will be used in some fashion.

 

[MomentsofSanity]

So the answer to this is.... more students with guns? I'm so confused on who needs the guns in which situation.

 

[imported_tajmahal]

What a tragedy! My thoughts and prayers go out to all the victims of this horror. I'd also like to start a go fund me effort to get alien42 some new diapers.

They should arm the custodial staff to counteract any rogue teachers.

 

[Younigue]

The ONLY logical answer is to arm everyone. Oh and that applies to every other country. That means the leaders as well and with all that is available to them. We can sort this issue out really quick. It's truly the 'safest' bet.

Who exactly would survive this scenario?

 

[MomentsofSanity]

Bets on the first right wing website and poster to suggest this is a deep state democrat op to undercut the awesome messaging of arming teachers?

 

[Puffnstuff]

This is exactly why nobody but trained law enforcement needs to be in possession of a firearm at any school.

 

[MomentsofSanity]

Seeing reports he ordered the students out. Barricaded the room and shot himself. Others say no one injured. If that’s the case they are same lucky he didn’t feel the need to take anyone with him.

But, but, but what about the cop that shot himself in the leg at a school? Let's just make all schools gun absolutely damn fee zones so only whacked out murderers will have a gun there. After all when seconds count the police are only minutes (up to 45) minutes away.

Over/under 24 hours

that's crazy talk!

Best part about this is that your thoughts and prayers are just as effective here as they are anywhere else!

Obviously the only answer is to create armed robots to patrol our schools.

 

[MomentsofSanity]

Holy shit the bots are pushing this on twitter. search the phrase "A girl just watched her teacher shoot up her school" hundreds of unique tweets at the same time.

 

[dank69]

Probably got sick of trying to teach rednecks.

So he is over 21, and it was a handgun.

Also arguably the most infamous school shooter, Virginia tech, was over 21, and also armed with a handgun.

Why the laser focus on AR-15 and the age of 21 then?

Is the only real solution here just no more guns?

Well what happens when a police officer discharges his weapon in a school? ABSOLUTELY no more guns?

What happens when there is a military base shooting - no we really mean it, no more guns.

This news story is comic gold.
Perfect timing

I find nothing funny about this story. Its just depressing.

But there is nothing to be done. Sending more truck loads of thoughts and prayers.

That was my first thought. Is this a right winded web site?

We need to arm... the ceiling that he shot into? Or arm the floors?

The issue is semi-auto. More efficient at killing numerous people in a short time. WV handgun was semi-auto.

BTW - The full time armed police force on campus didn't help them

Without diving into better stats, off the top of my head I know the Brown's Chicken Massacre was 7 people with a revolver, is that more or less the sweet spot for you on a relatively acceptable level of deaths? When has a revolver ever saved anybody's life? Why is 7 okay?

The "ED" stands for education model!

Just be sure to read the section on emergency shutdown procedures.

he was a teacher, that's the entire point here.

Also arguably the most infamous school shooter, Virginia tech, was over 21, and also armed with a handgun.

no one has said that adults can't kill people with handguns.

Why the laser focus on AR-15 and the age of 21 then?

because the AR-15 is far more deadly than all other guns. as for the age issue, no one can justify a kid being able to buy a weapon that can kill before being able to buy a lottery ticket or alcohol.

Is the only real solution here just no more guns?

no one is suggesting that, so why are you?

Well what happens when a police officer discharges his weapon in a school? ABSOLUTELY no more guns?

where are you getting such silly ideas? when a cop shoots an innocent person, no one suggests that all cops should have their guns taken away.

What happens when there is a military base shooting - no we really mean it, no more guns.

schools have nothing to do with military bases.

now, do you have any actual valid points to make about assault weapons and arming teachers?
