Terrible times to be a middle scholar or high scholar kids have to be more concerned about catching a bullet in biology class all we had to worry about was getting assigned homework
This kid was on the FBI watch list, there was a threat this morning that 5 schools would be attacked and the first one was this one. Don’t you people want answers? I do!
More thoughts and prayers? Hows that been working out?
The school had no resource officer?
Serious mental problems .
These bully’s will bully no more
This happens right before every election for some reason.
Shouldn't block the 14 year old killers face.
That’s all we do and nobody says anything about the gun law 😢it’s all about the Republicans fault
It’s a sad day😭. I wonder what MTG is thinking right now
Gun powder?
The F.B.I. was fully aware of this kid. Fourteen years old and on the F.B.I's radar. Question. Why did the F.B.I. not do anything? It seems to me that this could have been prevented.
They were warned about this kid a year ago but the FBI did nothing! Warnings need to be take seriously even if there isn’t a lot of evidence.
🤮🤮🤮

Guns not the problem it’s parenting and video games are the problem stop blaming the guns blame the parents it’s sad that parents don’t have morals any more why don’t teachers start caring and conceale and more metal detectors in schools and tighten security also schools are the problem also get with it faculty if not step off
Undoubtedly Biden will build a memorial sand castle at the beach where he is lounging.
Wonder how different this would be if the hundreds of billions sent to ukraine was vested into school safety???

When will this stop? When?
When will this end? Praying for the families and staff at the school.
I hope it wasn't the parents' gun….
How are these kids getting access to military style guns— when other parents leave their guns for a child to pick up and shoot themselves, the parents or sibling guess to jail for child endangerment but when these kids assumably get their family's hunting guns or whatever due to not being secured, are these parents still responsible as the others😢
Race?
I would like to know how a 14 years old can access an AR 15? where were his parents?
Maranatha
We the people want to see some interviews with the people he actually lived with…..like so called family members
Troublemaker hater honky teacher gang tells crazy hick to fight outside

How a teenager has access to a any kind of arms! for God’s sake do something por our children! he is a victim too! that’s the result of a different kind of regulations about a lot of things that are affecting too badly to our families!
Keep voting for gun protection rights and this will never end

Second Amendment Needs To Be Gone
Election year, of course there are going to be all these tragedies happening and put in front of our faces… of course they will blame the guns, more reasons for them to take them away from us.
mayonnaise incell strikes again. Huge culture problem.
….and then David Hogg showed up, claiming the "bullets flew right by my head!" and started screeching for gun control…
And here we go again with the politicians and their 'enough is enough' statement. How many times have I heard that before? Enough is enough
Tell us about the police advance knowledge and why the fbi showed up to a school
