  1. Santa Fe, Texas High School


    OK... Waking up today, I find out that Santa Fe had a school shooting. We were rivals. But that's not the issue...

    THE ISSUE IS... THIS IS THE THIRD SCHOOL SHOOTING WITHIN 8 DAYS IN THE UNITED STATES!

    When will this end?



    Sending prayers to the 8 families of the deceased 8 killed and prayers to the police officer that was injured :(
     
  2. Oh my goodness my condolences to them all as well...
     
  3. 1st





    Condolence
     
  4. Inappropriate on so many levels
     
  5. This is scary and sad:( condolences to the people who lost their loved ones
     
  6. I'm still waiting on hearing from family who works there
     
  7. Oh I read what you said in cc but for some reason it didn't click that she worked at that specific school. I hope she's alright
     
  8. Me too. I'm trying not to go crazy. I keep telling myself she's just helping get students to their parents.
     
  9. Saddened about the loss. A fast recovery to those who are injured as well as to those students who are experiencing anxiety because of the traumatic tragedy.
     
  10. It's a tragedy but I think one factor causing these shootings is the way the media reports it. They hype it up and bring so much attention to the shooters which in turn gives them exactly what they wanted in the first place.
     
  11. That's true unfortunately.
    Seems like everyone wants their 15 minutes of fame and doesn't care who they hurt.
     
  12. This is so true it honestly makes me sick. They dig everything on the attackers life, practically glorifying them. Whereas the victims you just about get their name and a quick person talking about how sad they are.

    It honestly is disgusting
     
  13. Yep.
    Much like the gutless Jack wagon in the white house that can't make any real changes to make the nation feel safer.
    RIP school shooting #22 on the year
     

  14. This is seriously the 22nd one? Damn..
     
  15. They are getting more and more frequent and what's worse is its more common in the schools. When I was in school, it wasn't this bad... What happened? What changed?
     
  16. You’re right, it’s a big part of the problem, they thrive off that attention. News outlets don’t care though, they only care about getting a shocking scope that will get them views.

    Regardless, It happens far too often and It’s Very upsetting, nothing but my condolences to the family and victims.
     
  17. Because weapons seem kewl asf.
    Virtual feel of first person video games.
    People that have zero social ability due to video game and media wannabe society.
     
  18. That's society today... You don't see anyone without a form of electronic in their hands.

    And no... Weapons don't seem kewl asf I know from military experience. One, shooting a weapon isn't as fun as people make it out to be. Once the shell casing leaves the chamber, it flies out and you might get lucky and it go down into your clothing... That burns because it's so hot. I can't tell you how many times I've been burned doing my qualifications in basic.

    Two, grenades are even worse. I have severe tinnitus in my left ear and everyday I hear that silence right before the high pitched ringing. Not cool...

    And the injuries... Turn on the news to see the real non-hollywood related injuries.
     
  19. My deepest condolences.
