Not sure if you are serious but I agree if you are. I mean you can’t buy a beer at 18 but you can buy a firearm as long as it is not a pistol. I do not see that logic.

Believe it or not but you can still enlist at 17

I know. I came awfully close

I'm not sure that kids making fun of a boy dressing up as a girl is text book Bullying. You gonna have a hard time putting a stop to that.

Stop normalizing a mental illness for starters.

I was taught how to shoot at a very young age. I think about 7-8 years old with a 22 rifle. I was shooting shotguns squirrel hunting about 10 years old. We had our shotguns and deer rifles hanging in our trucks at school never heard anyone state they wanted to go get a gun and shoot up our school. We also had no interest in dressing up like a girl or getting a trophy for just running the race. We worked hard to be better then others running to get a trophy that mean something.

This.

This, I dont see this as a Bullying, I dont see it as a gun problem. I see it as a criminally sick individual. 99.9999 percent of gun owners never do anything like this, 99.9999 percent of people who were at one time or another bullied as a youth never do anything like this. There are a few nut jobs walking the earth and it's probably impossible to weed them out or really identify them prior to them doing something ridiculous and evil. I see this as a failure of schools to secure themselves. Guards, trained armed personnel, fences, locking it down, whatever it takes. And I dont think the Burden falls solely on the schools, local police department and sheriff departments need to contribute to the efforts as well.

Yep.

What is the total number shot?
Was it a homeland officer that shot him?

Is buying beer a constitutional right?

Not to say your wrong but let's dig in to what your saying. Why are we blaming social media? Why aren't we being better about teaching kids or restricting access to that stuff? Saying all that I think it boils down to one thing, sin. We are sinful people and if we want to see the change happen it has to start with the heart first. It's no coincidence that the further we move from God the more evil we become.

I got my [censored] kicked and thrown in the bushes at Pt's one time ...

I’m reading some reports that local officer were outside, not going in while parents yelled at them to help.
They waited on a border patrol unit to go inside???

Allison, I'm pretty sure the he you are referring to is a she. just saying.
As far as bullying, I believe wytex is spot on. I think there have been quite a few young girls who committed suicide because of online bullying. It's a shame the psycho who killed all those kids didn't off himself instead. I don't understand how you can get put in facebook jail for 30 days for trying to help someone find homes for some puppies but that kid made 3 facebook posts that were clear warnings that no one thought to alert anyone about.
