Aside from everything else, I take great offense to invoking the name of one of the all time great Jazz masters as a signal of terror.


" Two teachers recounted near-miss confrontations with the shooter.

Ashley Rench told The Associated Press she was teaching advanced algebra to sophomores when she heard a loud bang. Then the school intercom announced, “Miles Davis is in the building.”

“That’s our code for intruder,” Rench said."

Hell, if I heard Miles was in the building, I'd be hoping to hear his music. I mean, yeah he's been dead for 30 years, but still.
 
Democrat stronghold.

Common-sense gun laws.

Thanks for driving that point home...
 
I think the proper response is to throw more guns and prayers at the kids.
 
The St. Louis school shooting wanted us to forget the Dallas hospital shooting.
 
I'm just glad that the right has fixed gun violence for their cities.
 
You do realize that Red California is the majority of California so you need to compare the per capita shootings of the Democrat cities...


Right?
 
In land space, yes. In population, no, but that is concentrated in the cities (where the mass shootings occur, just like in St. Louie and the state of Missourah).

You're a very confused individual.
 
This all falls under the heading of "no good deed goes unpunished." All of those ACLU victories that closed the mental institutions are coming back to haunt us.
 
how sad is it that there've been so many school shootings now that this one barely broke into public perception?

Lol, what would be the "proper" measure? Land mass?

Nearly one in eight Americans lives in California and a large majority of them are not conservative. so yeah, I'm sure you don't think individual people should count as much as the area they cover.

It's all over the news, but the simple fact is the body count is only three. Of the other seven injuries, only four are gunshots and all relatively minor. That and it's in a big city, not a small rural community.

Just curious - WHAT ACLU victory closed mental institutions?

While I don’t think of ACLU as some sort of savior, I recall what they did was to require a state to have to establish certain elements beyond a preponderance of evidence before a person could be involuntarily hospitalized.

I am looking to learn from you. Please enlighten me.
 
^^ As I recall it, Ronnie Raygun began the demise of mental health services. Many of the state hospitals closed in the 90s and early 2000s.
 
Just in times for mid terms....where's the cop shooting an armed, I mean innocent, black person? We need one of those before election day, right Soros?
