Another school shooting...
Damn, this is the third one in just over a week. They've also locked dow two schools in Vegas because somebody was spotted nearby with a gun.
We've got a number of teachers here- what do you guys think about this; are your schools doing anything to stop it? What would you do?

Police: Number of people dead in Amish school shooting
POSTED: 12:55 p.m. EDT, October 2, 2006
Adjust font size:
NICKEL MINES, Pennsylvania (AP) -- A gunman killed "a number" of people at a one-room Amish schoolhouse Monday in Pennsylvania's Lancaster County, state police said.
The shooter was among the dead, state police Cpl. Ralph Striebig said.
"There are a number of people dead," Striebig said. "The exact number I do not know yet." (Watch helicopter video from the scene of the shooting -- 1:00 )
About three dozen Amish people were standing behind a police line, and at least two ambulances had left the scene, WGAL-TV said. Television news helicopters showed a person being taken away on a stretcher to a waiting medical helicopter.
The Lancaster County 911 Web site reported that dozens of emergency units were dispatched to a "medical emergency" at 10:45 a.m. Monday.

We have lockdown procedures but you can't stop a person from being crazy. |

Is it necessary to refer to them as people? That seems like a poorly written sentence.
Why do idiots insist on taking others with them when they have a death wish? Just blow your brains up in the ocean so the fish can eat the leftovers
and it won't cost the taxpayers a cent. |

So sad. I will never understand one's desire to shoot up a classroom of children.  |
