    Hopefully it's a "fad" that goes away. Seems this shit goes in streaks no? Everyone wants their 15 minutes of fame to matter how fucked up it is.

    Hey for just a little bit of fun, it's early in this killing so watch as something unfolds. The killer will not get blamed, and the 5.5 million members of the NRA and the tool used will. The actual person that pulled the trigger will get no blame.

    "Dimitrios Pagourtzis" - early reports, unconfirmed, are that he was bullied by other students and possibly coaches.

    Columbine killers weren't outcasts or bullied .

    The media will claim it has to do with gun access and you'll continue to claim knives kill more Chinese school children than guns kill US children.

    Not specifically but iirc, nobody was surprised it was them either.

    Except that wasn't the motivation at Columbine... Or any of the shootings last I read up on them.

    Huh? How many weren’t “society has hurt me so I’m going to hurt society and make myself famous in the process” motivations?

    Pretty sure none of them were. Some are psychos, some are just assholes looking for attention, all are sociopaths to some extent. Lots of reasons out there once they figure it out - but that's years down the line after a lot of study and doesn't fit in a sound bite.

    The issue with motivations is the media just like they did in Columbine grabs one thing and runs with it - they weren't remotely right on Columbine but they keep using the same talking points every shooting. I don't get it myself. It's a proven lie but they keep going back to it.

    And kids will still be far more likely to be killed from texting and driving, but guns are scary.

    Yep. I'd bet more kids died on the way to school this morning than died in this shooting.

    Hell, after yesterday in Jersey I'd say idiotic school bus drivers are more scary than any gun. And seatbelts on buses should be mandatory. There would have been a lot more dead otherwise.

    Since this was literally really close to home, I've heard about it plenty. Thankfully the kids were supposedly wearing seat belts, and probably helped avoid any further casualties. It's crazy how the bus just separated from the chassis.

    As soon as I saw the fist pictures of it and the dump truck my thought was holy shit the bus pulled out in front of him. Then to find out it was on I-80 and it's much more like WTF happened? Bus driver should be charged with manslaughter minimum for this one. How in the fuck could anyone ever consider going through the median in a damn bus?

    Well, if the talking heads I heard while in between recorded stuff were right Biden is going to be freaking about this one - shotgun and a .38 revolver. It was ABC so kind of surprised it wasn't an assault shotgun....

    It is uncanny isn't it? Don't care for conspiracies but damn every time something the dems don't like is coming up, some tragedy happens.
