No points for guessing the student who shot and killed the other student was white, because I noticed the article said he had been taken into custody. POC don’t usually get the benefit of getting arrested, they get shot to death in their own homes or apartments by wandering police officer neighbors.

While police have not confirmed what kind of gun was used, Wilcox said: “I don’t know how a young person gets a handgun in the state of North Carolina.” He said the system was reviewing its security procedures.

Seriously??? Guns are fucking everywhere, thanks to The Republican’t Party and the NRA. How is anyone this fucking clueless in any position of authority?

Yes, similarly it’s mystifying how they get cigarettes, beer and drugs. Inexplicable.

It’s not cluelessness, it’s a coverup story for them. Think Casablanca gambling.

Trump’s and the NRA’s daily massacres have become routine, ho hum, that’s our nation folks: high schools of terror, universities of terror, streets of terror, churches of terror, walking your dog of terror anymore … don’t leave your home without an armed and trained posse or else.

If it was the parents’ gun, then we need to jail the parents too.

“Classes were proceeding for students who remained on campus.”

So – at long last – we’ve finally reached that point:

A student is gunned down in a public school, and classes simply proceed as scheduled.

Welcome to your new normal in GOP America!

His dad got it for him.
He picked it up off of the pile of guns his dad keeps in the closet.
He bought it at a gun show.
He found it on the street.
He sent in 2 boxtops from a cereal box.
He printed it out.

There are more fucking guns than there are people in America, and with this shooting that discrepancy increased by one.

Way back in the mid-70’s I had to go to a high school in Irvington, NJ, on business.
They had a uniformed, armed guard on the two main entrances and metal detectors. I was stunned. It was just so beyond my own experience in high school or college. I didn’t ask, but something critical must have caused this school district to take on these additional expenses.

I can’t believe this tool Wilcox actually said that. How much you want to bet this terminal brain damage case says “more than fingers and toes,” when he has to deal with any number higher than 20?

The NRA will tell us that is a kid is determined to get a gun, there’s nothing we can do to stop it. Oh, and lock him up!

“I don’t know how a young person gets a handgun in the state of North Carolina.”

It was forced on him by a Hater of the Second Amendment.

Trump’s “American carnage”… it was a preview to his terror-filled reality show. It is meant to frighten people off voting, methinks. May democracy prevail!

Vote D for Democracy 'cause R is for Russia.
