Thank god it ended quickly

I like what the Commander-in-Chief said:

“We have to harden our schools, not soften them. A gun free zone to a killer, that’s like going in for ice cream.”

We've been discussing it in the Florida thread... Guess I could've started a new one but figured why not just keep going on that one.

Shooter looks like he is 8

Its a shame the media won't focus the attention on the difference between this resource officer doing his job, seemingly in a very efficient manner , vs the FL resource officer wandering outside looking for the fireworks.

Kudos to the armed security guard

So, let me get this straight. If the armed person at the school gives the motherfucker that needs a killing a killing it likely prevents the loss of life and injury to others? What a novel idea.

It ended well for the kids in the school.

was he really a mass shooter or was this more of a targeted situation though too?

 

[DEEZUZ]

Ugh...

I believe mass is classified as more than 4 or something

We don't know because the guy was stopped by the school resource officer.

Isn't that how it should be though?

How hard was it for CNN to write this article...

Guy is a hero and sounds like a badass!

As soon as the gunfire began, Gaskill rushed to the scene. He fired a round at the shooter, who also fired a round at the same time, Cameron said.

It's not yet clear whether the shooter, Austin Wyatt Rollins, was felled by the officer's bullet or killed himself.

"DFC [Deputy First Class] Gaskill fired at the shooter ... almost simultaneously as the shooter fired," Cameron said. "This is something we train, practice and in reality, hope would never come to fruition. This is our worst nightmare."

Gov. Larry Hogan called Gaskill "a very capable school resource officer who also happened to be a SWAT team member."

"This is a tough guy who apparently closed in very quickly and took the right kind of action," he said. "And while I think it's still tragic, he may have saved other people's lives."

sure but if the guy was only actually targeting the 2 people to start it would be interesting to know.

Let’s go to the morgue and ask him

 

[FESTER665]

He Dead.

The resource officer got there in less than a minute from what I've read... Can't ask for a better result as much as you'd like for it to not have happened at all.

Sorry, the news is done on this shooting.... we will not hear anything about it within a week.

THIS is the problem with both gun control laws and laws giving people the right to affirm themselves. It's really hard to affirm that a life was saved or not saved by a gun in the majority of cases, but it is easy to quantify how many people are killed by a gun. It is likewise a deep flaw with gun control proposals as they are floated. It leads to stpuid statements like this one:

Chances are there's someone somewhere who jerked off in the shower today and saved one life from gun violence.

well it's not like there would be no way to figure out if it was some kind of relationship related thing.
