Amen!!

I've driven drunk for the last 50 years and I've never killed anyone yet. Quit trying to punish me and others like me for things we did not do. Driving drunk is NOT the problem. Loonies who drive drunk are the problem. Punish the loonies.

Schools really need to be done differently. I bet this girl shooter was picked on, and looking for revenge. Its not the fault of the girl she was bullied. Its the school atmosphere.
Do you have some inside information or is this just speculation?

Shootings no, stabbings yes. Crazy just gotta be crazy, keep hiding the erasers, that'll be sure to solve the problem.

You do realize that the level of false equivalence in your analogy is god tier

Unlikely that she was black. Idaho is one of the places that white people are moving in increasing numbers for safety.

She could be pretty much the same as Brenda Ann Spencer--a white girl who just flipped, and opened fire with her gun from her home on an elementary school playground in San Diego. When Spencer was asked why she did what she did, she simply replied, "I don't like Mondays. This livens up the day."

And yes, the Boomtown Rats' song, "I Don't Like Mondays" is based on the incident. Wikipedia's take on the incident, including how it inspired the song:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clevel...ing_(San_Diego)

Not everything needs to be attributed to race or bullying. Sometimes people, even children, just ... well, flip.

Gun ownership is a right.

Driving drunk is illegal.

Absolutely! I can see the potential of gun fighting in the classroom. Every child should carry an assault rifle in their backpack next to their notebooks!
