    Default Several People Killed, 12 Injured In Texas School Shooting

    At least 10 people are killed and dozens injured following a shooting at a Texas high school.
    Authorities say 17-year-old Dimitrios Pagourtzis entered Santa Fe High School Friday morning, pulled the fire alarm and began shooting.
    Nine students and one teacher were killed in the incident in Santa Fe, a city around 30 miles outside Houston.
    Several injured victims have been taken to a nearby hospital in Galveston.

    Right now, authorities in tactical gear have surrounded the suspect’s home, and are approaching with caution because a pressure cooker and other explosives have been found by the school.
    Meantime, another person of interest was also detained, both he and the suspected shooter are believed to be students at the school.
    Out of the 12 injured, two students and a school resource officer were shot, while another law enforcement officer was also injured but not shot.
    We will continue to follow this story and bring you more information as it comes into our newsroom.

    Here we go again . Galveston is one of our lefty cities so stow the gear and batten the hatches for whining. It'll be the gun's fault.

    That's definitely not an American name.

    It's definitely an American kid. A white kid, even.

    And he is definitely a gun nut. To an extreme.

    So? So? and So? I said the name wasn't American. Otherwise it doesn't matter.

    Was Mr "gun nut" legally old enough to possess a firearm? Seems to me HS students are not.

    I can tell you this much since it's in Texas. They are total pr*cks about background checks here, and it IS the law. So. his possession of the weapon in and of itself being unlawful notwithstanding, if some cheese whistle sold him one without proper ID and a background check, said cheese whistle won;t be in business very long.

    No law is going to cure stupid. I'm sure the left would have legislated it, and inadvertently itself, out of existence if it was possible.

    An American name? We're all immigrants with foreign names. The only American names are Native American names.

    It's still an ethnic name. Go piss up a rope if that's all you got. I figured after a few days off you'd come back with something entertaining. FAIL.

    Oh, and bullshit. I am not an immigrant. I was born here as were my ancestors on both sides of the family going back to before the Revolutionary War. You can be an immigrant if you want.

    Did you and rev get new, matching copies of "The Leftwingnut Guide to Trying to Play Semantics with Your Betters" this week?

    I am sure the left will inform us soon enough on why it's the gun's fault, and not the shooter's.

    What I want to know is if he is a HS student, meaning not old enough to purchase nor possess a firearm, where'd he get it? You can't even buy a BB, pellet or paintball gun in this state under the age of 18.

    This shit has only started since the LEFT/DEMOCRATS took full control of the education system. This never happened 40-50 years ago, and yeah... WE HAD GUNS THEN TOO.

    That's where the problem lies. What in the FUCK is in these "kids" heads?

    Violent video games? Violent movies? Drugs? All of the above? What...

    we had rifles in the backs or our pickups. Nobody cared.

    Remember Hearing about the UT Tower shooting by Charles Whitman? If you watch the footage, civilains with rifles outnumbered the police and were better armed and kept Whitman's head down while two cops and a civilian got into the tower and took him out.

    Same scenario present day? He'd sit up there all freakin' day picking people off and he was a damned good marksman.

    So why are there so many shootings being done today, and by kids, and in schools?

    There's a common denominator here... SCHOOLS... what the hell is the LEFT/DEMOCRATS, who RUN the schools, teaching them? Why do these kids feel the need to shot up the SCHOOL? Why aren't all these shootings being done by ADULTS, in SHOPPING MALLS or whatever. Why so many SCHOOLS? There's a problem here, and it's originating in SCHOOLS, and we all know who RUNS the SCHOOLS.

    You can bet your ass that if CONSERVATIVES ran the schools the LEFT/DEMOCRATS would HONE IN ON THAT. They're real quiet about this always happening in SCHOOLS, because it's THEIR TURF. This crying about GUN CONTROL and TOO MANY GUNS is a damn COP OUT. That is NOT the PROBLEM.
