Why no school shooter thread?

FDE?

FDE?

Yes

I can't decide if I'd rather have an FDE or olive drab/foliage green rifle.

I picked FDE because it matches my Jeep

Just more "gunsplaining" from the people who don't  care about dead children.

Colion is a great follow.

If I had a brown gun, I'd name it Ahmed.  That way, I'd scare Republicans and Democrats equally with it.

Just started following a week ago, pretty solid.

I posted a meme about this in the meme thread:

Those of you in favor of adding some sort of private contracted security for our schools, be it volunteer or paid; what is your opinion on our military using private contractors, like Blackwater?

My guess is there are only about 800k people and their families who support it (that's how many civilian contractors the DoD employs).

BTW Dicks lied. They are still selling ARs.

Yes, yes it does.

Another school shooting today in Maryland. Apparently the resource officer ended the threat. Is the media going to blow this up too if the kid had a pistol?

"There was no immediate information about any injuries or deaths."

"three injured in shooting'

 All I can find is one news agency is reporting "three injured" so lets wait and see.

* Nobody will argue that the AR 15 isn't a better choice in tactical situations, over a pistol.

I'm jumping the gun because I haven't heard the details yet, but that would seem to me to strengthen the idea that we need armed protection in schools. (Even if it's not teachers)

I haven't heard.  How did he end the threat?

With adequate space, a rifle is a better choice than a pistol, yes.

A good guy with a gun ... which is how it works if there is ever a bad person/bad people with guns.

Shot and wounded him. Officer came out uninjured

Since a good guy with a gun ended the situation, the CNN types will barely acknowledge that it even happened.
