Knife violence happens in schools across the country on a daily basis. Virtually none will make the national news, and many instances go unreported—and tragically nowadays, for reasons of so-called "equity." Nobody wants to have a serious conversation about why young men commit violence, why it's on the rise, or even acknowledge basic facts borne of well-established psychology.

this one also backs up other kids being present.

because some waste of sperm and eggs decided to procreate and be a terrible human being and parent shouldn’t mean that I have to have a rectal exam and take “safety training” and all the other ridiculous disincentive laws dems want to pass to own a gun. where i live guns aren’t a big deal. i hear gunshots regularly from rifles and shotguns. scary stuff!

For answer as to why this happened: Look at who is raising the child and his home environment.

Where did he get the gun? Maybe an older sibling or from someone in his neighborhood.

For showing that teacher what time it was. For keeping it gangsta. This boy will likely wear the shooting as a badge of honor.

Would the leftists say we needed to have a conversation about peanut butter and jelly sandwiches in this country?

I mean I just proved that Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are the same as a gun.

Checkmate Leftists.
Sure a teacher wouldn't stand a chance against a 6 year old with a peanut jelly sandwich, same as a gun. Both are equally dangerous, I worry about being assaulted by 6 year olds all the time, I steer to the other side of the street.

Given the easy access so many kids seem to have to guns these days, maybe we should start being worried.

But no, we don't have a gun problem here. Nope. Not at all...

How can anyone blame a six year old, one who is just out of diapers. No, this is all on the parents. I bet this kid is allowed to play all those violent video games, where you shoot and kiil the bad guy, and then he returns for a new game.

We don't have a gun problem; we have a people problem.

We have a too many people having easy access to too many guns problem. Take away the guns and that problem goes away.
