    There are no real details or facts coming from Fox or CNN right now. I believe this is at a hugh school near or in Marysville, Washington.

    Correct. I've heard on msnbc that the shooter was a popular kid at school who seemed to be happy and nothing. Although one of the kids said he got into a fight with another kid the other day over racism. Who knows.

    He had a "blank stare" on his face as he was shooting. "Good kid" "always nice"

    if a student in HS has access to a gun then that means the "responsible legal gun owner" wasnt so responsible, no doesn't it. Fuck al lif it was his parent, that parent should be charged and convicted of murder.

    Why? The President doesn't.

    Sorry if I prefer to protect our children with trained and armed personal instead of a sign with some words on it that has never stopped a bad guy.

    Truth hurts. Gun free zones kill.

    What an asinine argument.

    The answer to 16,000 gun deaths and 4-5 national tragedies every year is more guns. Brilliant.

    Yes, let's institutionalize the school even more like prisons than they already are. Armed guards, uniforms, locked doors, RFIDs. Sounds like a great environment for learning. Sounds a lot more like North Korea than North America.

    I highly doubt an armed security guard would have prevented one bullet from being fired. He stood up in the cafeteria and started shooting. (Allegedly)

    no no no don't you know the only way you can prevent a school shooting is having 100 armed security at every school?

    Totally agree. Kids will all end up being fucked in the head (even more than they already are) if schools turn into that.

    so you dont think the owner of a weapon that's used in a crime such as this shouldnt be held accountable? If that kid was driving his parents car and plowed into a crowd wouldnt they bear some responsibility? Whats different?

    Most schools are already underfunded and are forced to cut educational programs or certain sports teams due to budget cuts. SOOOOOO lets add in the cost for armed security and the training and liability insurance that goes with it. Oh but we can never raise taxes.

    Lets come up with REAL ideas to prevent these tragedies and not armed guards or armed teachers which will NEVER happen.

    This shit just went down and already some people are jumping the gun (honestly, no pun intended).

    Does anyone know more or have deeper insight beyond what's been initially reported?

    A student at Washington state's Marysville-Pilchuck High School walked into the school's cafeteria, went up to a table with students, "came up from behind ... and fired about six bullets into the backs of them," witness Jordan Luton told CNN. "They were his friends, so it wasn't just random," Luton said.

    Pulled a handgun from his pocket.

    This is why handguns are so effective. You just carry that little weapon in your pocket and... right when you're ready... "surprise" and begin firing.

    Cue critical response: This is why the other students needed to have their own guns. That way... "double surprise" and a gun fight could have occurred.

    Is that true? If my daughter was driving my car and plowed into somebody and killed them, I could be legally accountable? I know financially, my insurance would pay, but I could get charged with a crime?
