Another fucking spree shooting. Great.

as many have noted, we crossed some sort of threshold when nothing was done after sandy hook. i don't know where we are now, but it's a persistently despicable place

I only just read this recently and it's the most comprehensive take on American gun control I can recall (v leftist tho if yr not into that)

there's an active shooter (or was) at Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, FL.

ban high schools

christ

shooter in custody. one confirmed casualty far.

now reporting multiple deaths im sick

shooter is a white male, so expect thoughts and prayers and nothing else.

prez already came in w thoughts n prayers

cool, he's done

Broward sherriff says shooter is in custody.

there's video out there from inside a classroom man alive

About 20 miles north of me.

shooter is a white male, so expect thoughts and prayers and nothing else

so otmfm it hurts

yeah that's right next to where i grew up, had a few friends who went there. fucking sick. high school was bad enough for me without major incident, i can't imagine dealing with something like this, shootings, new copters, active shooter drills, as a 14 year old :(

*news

Parkland is a very wealthy municipality, too.

the more often this happens, the more disturbing it is to me. How am I supposed to leave my daughter anywhere, attended or unattended?

come to think of it, when i was in high school, a 13 year old kid at another s fl high school shot a teacher he had an argument with in the head and killed him. he was tried as an adult. still in jail. it was haunting when i visited the school a cpl months later with the debate team.

the scope + randomness of these spree shootings is of course a lot scarier

I'm one block from my kid's elementary school and there's a lot of construction on homes nearby. Sometimes a jackhammer type sound comes from one of the sites and I have that split second where I'm not sure.

according to the local WSVN broadcast, the superintendent says there are "numerous fatalities".

hey it's all worth it though right, it's all worth it for the right to, uh, bear arms, that's some important shit right there

Hey, you never know, your country might turn into a dictatorship some day. Every American, without exception, will deliver some righteous gunslinging when that happens.

Hell yes, Alex Jones is agitating for it nightly.

the video of this was nauseating, expect we will see more footage like this as smartphone proliferate. i do like that the CBS news censored the cuss words in the midst of broadcasting bloody acts of attempted murder... wouldn't want to upset anyone ofc

I'm seeing as many as 15 killed now.

Fuck this country.

16, now, according to CNN.

yeah, seriously fuck everyone who votes for people who do JACK SHIT.

It’s too upsetting

My niece goes to Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, where the shooting occurred. She wasn't there at the time, but just heard from my brother many horror stories of parents still without information about their kids, others who texted as their kids hid in closets.

He supposedly used an AR-15

Sun-Sentinel said it was a former student. And the body count is 17 now.

Former student who had reportedly been expelled for disciplinary reasons.

Totally hopeless to think that anything will ever change

If it was a brown guy shouting about Allah we'd have three new racist laws by tomorrow morning

This is the lead story on the UK 24hr news channels but it is literally spend two minutes on it and move on to something else, you know, yet another mass shooting in the USA, not much to see here.

xp
His last name is Cruz, so maybe there will be other new laws.

good luck USA

p much another Columbine and yet nobody's shocked anymore cos this is reality now. fuck.

Not all messages are displayed: show all messages (4178 of them)

The reason nothing is done is still because at least half of Americans are death cultists who exult in the gun murder of children

The average Republican worships murder and rape

Anyone who votes republican wants all black people dead, all children murdered, and all women to be raped and forced to raise the children if they can’t manage to die in childbirth

There is no other platform, American conservatives promote starvation, murder, and slavery

that all sounds v grounded and well thought out

#guncontrolnow has been trending on Twitter all night in the UK, never seen that before.
