I read a CNN article on that today. What a terrible thing to happen.

Yeah, I heard about that. Someone from the News Crew here in Marietta was at my school today interviewing someone.

It's really scarry. I mean, I "think" my school is safe, even though I know 90% of the students have guns *thanks to the hickness, and how rual we are* lol

Marietta?! What does georgia have to do with it? That's scary =X Marietta isn't THAT southern.

I read a book this year To Give a Boy a Gun and it was based on a story like this.. It wasn't true but it really does tell you a lot about shootings like this. It's really sad.

yes, i read that a few weeks ago and it was really depressing.

i heard about this today when i was looking for a current event. school shootings are so sad. the scary thing is i can actually picture some kids at my school doing that.

Man, I've been to Red Lake so many times...
It was very sad. A lot of people in my town alone were sad about it, even though we're on the border of North Dakota and Minnesota, and Red Lake's on the other side of the Minnesota border.

Anyway, it is terrible. =/
It really didn't get enough publicity. It should have, if you ask me.

i really feel sorry for the kid that did the shooting.... i mean, it sounded like his life was pretty bad.


his dad commited suicide.
his mom was in the hospital
he was picked on and called names at school
he shot his grandfather and his grandfather's girlfriend. that obviously indicates that he must not have liked them.

he believed that Hitler wasn't bad and that Nazism was a good thing.

then it said that last year he said something like "wouldn't it be cool to shoot up the school?" well, he could have meant it as is...or he could have been really angry or really sad seeing the situation he was in. he might have even said sorry the next day, but no one would remember that.



You can't imagine what it must be like to be a student in that school and know someone that died... or well just everyone at that school must feel horrible. fortunately, or maybe unfortunately i've never known anyone who has died, close enough to feel all that bad... but its guaranteed that someday it will happen to all of us, and it sucks really really bad knowing that.

I read that he was teased a lot in school and that he had a lot of anger built up inside of him and obviously just lashed out.

The kid looks so damn familar somehow....I swear I may have seen him before. (other than now)

EDIT//

I just read that two of the wounded (critical condition) are in the hospital in my town at the moment. They're not doing so well.
