MODERATORS
Were any of the kids a CEO? No? Meh…
Absolutely not. This stupid fucking country will never change.
Well arming 2nd graders is probably a good start.
TL;DW: Sacha Baron Cohen in disguise convinces several current and former republican lawmakers to make a commercial endorsing the "Kinderguardians" program which seeks to arm children.
Something that addresses the root cause? I doubt it.
Something so it seems like something is done? Possibly.
Not sure what is already in effect in Wisconsin, but I could see politicans call for actions like armed guards/teachers, more funding for local police, or bullet proof doors and windows.
We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas!
Have you tried more thoughts and prayers?
It was a Christian school.
Who are we to interfere with God's will?
If God wants those kids dead are you going to stand in His way?
A second grade teacher called 911
Well, he wasn't responsible for 40,000 deaths like Brian Thompson was, so obviously he's not important enough to save. /s
"I'd like to provide an important clarification," Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes told reporters Tuesday afternoon before a news conference on the the deadly attack at Abundant Life Christian School. Actually, "the call came from a second grade teacher."
Misleading title, still horrifyingly tragic and expected. Also, the shooter was a girl this time. I feel like that's rare. Still depressing though.
Huh, well that's new. I don't think I've ever heard of a girl or woman go on a school or mass shooting.
I heard a factoid about that on the NPR News Hour this morning, but I missed the exact qualifications, so I found this article from Newsweek that gives much more precise info from the FBI and The Violence Protection Project:

It's definitely rare, but has happened before.
Im all for equality but Feminism really is going too far trying to equalize this statistic.
