    Kids need to understand that CEOs are the root of most of their problems - not their teachers and peers.

      Well based on the name, the teacher was a Christian groomer working to permanently damage the critical thinking skills and morality of children for years in the process of indoctrinating them into their cult.

      Agreed on the other student, no excuse for that.

      Weird, shocker, complete mystery, total enigma; very puzzling, baffling, inexplicable, a “head-scratcher” as the hooligans say; indecipherable, unanswerable, consign it to oblivion and endeavor never to speak of this quandary again.

    This it right in my community. :(

    Our congressman Mark Pocan summed things up well, “Support better gun laws or stay out. Thought & prayers are useless. Action!”

    By the way OP its been corrected to three, maybe update title.

      Isn’t murder already illegal? Why would a killer care if they’re also breaking some newly made law? I never understood this logic.

        FTFY

        It’s already illegal to break traffic laws, why do I need a license?

          Tens of thousands of people drive cars without a license every day. Thanks for solidifying my point.

              No not at all. I’m saying despite that, there’s still nothing stopping someone from taking a car or a gun and killing someone with it.

              Edit: Downvoting this comment won’t make it untrue. There’s an example in the very article you just read.

                by the “LaWs DoNt StoP cRiMiNaLs” logic, then we don’t need any laws at all, because whoever wants to is going to break them anyway. oh but of course the same chuds bleating this nonsense are also fighting tooth and nail to ram through bathroom laws. “only harming law abiding citizens” indeed

                  Don’t lump me in with the trumptards. I voted Harris. I’m just stating facts.

                  I have no doubt “the good christian” parents would have passed any gun laws or background checks you could throw at them.

                  That little girl needed better parenting, mental healthcare and to not find a gun laying around.

                  What new enforceable law could have prevented this?

    Those poor kids only knew indoctrination, then death. What a shame. I wonder how many of their Christian parents voted for this reality. How many more will play a part in their own kids deaths?

    Something like this would have paused and galvanized the entire U.S. 20 years ago.

    I wonder if this will even be mentioned in tomorrows news.

    People already making jokes, we’ve truly lost all hope.

      "Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.

      Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.

      Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?

      Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?" - Epicurus

    They should really not entitle it “LIVE: 5 dead”.

    Also, the cruel irony of this being the “abundant life” school.
