The gunman, who was believed to be in his 20s, walked into a classroom where his mother was a teacher. He shot and killed her and then shot 18 students in the classroom. He also shot seven other adults.The gunman then killed himself inside the school.
The shooter killed his mother and 20 students.
Apparently, with 100 rounds going off, the shooter may have legally bought a larger clip to cause this shooting or had multiple clips. I am for gun control and a firearm owner. I own a Mosin Nagant, an old bolt-action WWII sniper rifle. I shoot targets and keep the rifle in a safe at a gun store. I have no access to it because I choose to not have access to my rifle and am considering selling my rifle.
But go to any conservative site, and read how they pray to the Sky-Spook and argue that if the children had firearms or worse, compare this heinous crime to abortion, like conservative Christian Victoria Jackson said in her Facebook post:
…Christian conservatives make me puke blood!
Tim’s first experience into journalism was at East Los Angeles College. Then Tim was a stringer for a local Japanese American Newspaper in Los Angeles. He then completed his Bachelors in Business and RECEIVED his MBA, but his desire to seek the truth has not been assuaged by fear of the 1% or their followers. When Tim isn’t doing his liberal thing, he enjoys sitting back, relaxing and listening to Rush…the band folks!
