Awe geez. Not again.

Well, here's to hoping that there are a lot less school shootings during the Trump administration than there were during Obama's watch.

Shooter detained. One dead. Three others injured.

This is impossible. The school was a gun-free zone, and the shooter was too young to possess a handgun lawfully anyway.

On a more serious note: if people start doing strange things, and give signs that they're going to do something, maybe take that seriously:

“He was weird,” Harper said. “And he loved the show Breaking Bad. He never really seemed like that person who had issues. He was always nice and funny and weird.”


Harper said the shooter had written his friends notes indicating he planned to do “something stupid.”


“He made a note,” Harper said. “I didn’t get mine, but my friends got theirs. I read one of my friends’ and it said he was going to do something stupid. He took it to a counselor.”

Nope. No way at all to see this coming:

The carnage was only brought to an end when a brave member of staff wrestled the gunman who has been named locally as Caleb Sharpe.


The suspect, who a classmate described as being obsessed with previous school shootings and the television programme Breaking Bad, was later arrested and taken into custody.
