Oh well, the leftists will try to use this to force through more
restrictions on our 2nd Amendment rights...

I was waiting for someone to suggest that if all children were armed
that this would have been prevented.

This was an Indian reservation. For all we know, they were. Hunting is an
integral part of the education and culture of some Indians, even these days.
Details of this event do not seem to be available yet. As they are, what
happened, what was done to put an end to it and what might have been done to
prevent it will become more clear. I doubt anybody is going to advocate
arming a classroom full of high schoolers, but, had the teacher, presumably
a competent, law abiding citizen of his/her community, been armed, maybe it
would have stopped sooner. Maybe, that's how it stopped when it did. So
far, we don't know.

Who knows? Teachers, maybe... It's interesting that the kid killed
himself -and- was wearing a 'bulletproof' vest... He's making some kind of
statement with that, but I'm not quite sure what it is...

And if the Principal was armed?

He would have got to the classroom in time to wave his gun over all
the bodies I suspect. Was he in the room at the time?

That is because only a dickhead like you would even think such a thing.

Or just a couple teachers. Of course, guns are forbidden on school grounds.

He killed an unarmed security guard. Maybe you could have gone after
that point - after you read the facts. But I wasn't the first person
to jump on this soap box, you were.

Is anyone who thinks that this kid shouldn't have had such open access
to handguns a 'leftist'?

BTW - you snipped your own pre-emptive, knee jerk, reactionary post
- no fair.
All you left was my own pre-emptive, knee jerk, reactionary post.

BTW2 - the statement he was trying to make was that he was crazy

Or he might have saved one or two.

But he didn't have that chance.
