BREAKING NEWS: Shooting at Chardon High School in Ohio

....

So pathetic...

Hoping for the best...

Maybe I'm just an asshole, but like Wu my first reaction was a snort that someone named Knife makes an announcement about a shooting

.

3 in critical condition, 1 in stable.

people are just fucked in the head.

1 apparently on the loose

mandatory psych evaluations these days in school. You never know when that squirrely kid is gonna snap.

where do you see that it was a student who did the shooting, or someone associated with the school?

hoping that there are no fatalities

that all it takes is one or two kids to result in something tradgic like this.

one of the students said that kids were in the cafeteria having breakfast when a boy stood up and started shooting.

there was only 1 shooter.

It keeps changing, but I literally just heard 2 shooters again from a local FOX affiliate. Also reporting that the students had specific targets and it wasn't random. Just a report though. Not confirmed.

Also--again, just a report--one of the gunman posted on Twitter last night that people are gonna be hurt tomorrow.

Where are you seeing 3 in critical?

as my kids get older. What the fuck is wrong with the world?

Yeah I can imagine there's a lot of chaos there right now. We will different things for a few hours at least I am sure.

just went out the window.

still investigating if there are other suspects. but they think its just the one boy.

according to the sheriff's statement.

and think about all the kids who were outcasts or unpopular and just hoped to God they were not capable of pulling something like this off. More popular kids that either picked on them or bullied them only further pushed these kids to their breaking point. Thats why I would always say Hello to at least try to make them feel better, if that even helped at all.

I thought we lost you in a case race, lol

It�s crazy. Same thing. I was just thinking back to when I was in high school (early 90�s) and there were definitely kids I knew that looking back now, could have easily been candidates for snapping like this. Luckily then, these kids didn�t have the internet to make it easier to plot shit, find weapons, meet more kids like themselves, etc. It�s a completely different world. Much easier to pretty much do anything with all the available information.

will be this June!

should be charged as terrorists. That's what they are.

I have never met, nor am likely to meet, has lost whatever remnant of respect they may or may not have had for me based on the fact that I voiced a play on words--one that others probably thought of as well--on a football message board about a tragic event that neither he nor I are likely connected to in any way.

Get over it!

.

a school shooting is one of the few places where it is neither funny nor appropriate.

but carry on.

.

it is this type of stuff that you have to try to look for signs of happening but are 99.9% likely to never see coming.

of when and where the time and place is for puns and what puns are and are not appropriate.

How long is your reign?

I meant "now" not "not".

Good thing I'm at my desk instead of at the site of a school shooting.

I just don't get your extreme defensiveness over something like this.

whether it's bullying, suicide, violence, terrorism, or this.

scary for parents. It's not just your kids or even mainly your kids, its other kids you can't control/predict.

Hope for the best for the victims and their families.

that joking about a situation and chastising those who joke about the situation are equal in terms of inappropriateness.

However, the pious don't seem to see it that way as they go about redirecting the moral compasses.

Heaven forbid we offend the sensabilities of people we know nothing about!

Are the victims actively reading this thread? Their families?

Probably not.

Who am I being insensitive towards? People who have no exposure to these comments?

Did I miss a memo?

I concede.

just learned their child was in danger and logged onto BBI, offending their sensbilities is the least of their worries.

Devil's music, Rock and Roll

had Mile come on here and posted that his cousin or nephew or whatever had just been shot at a school shooting, and linked to the same story, I would not have made the joke out of sensitivity to Mike.

That's not the case.

These kinds of things are always relative to proximity.

I'm not laughing at kids getting shot. That's a terrible thing. I chuckled at the incongruity of the name of a spokesman. That's it.

yay!

it's the first thing I noticed too. I had to re-read to make sure I was reading it right.

tube top.

Just trust me on this one.

LMAO! Excellent point.

There is at least 1 here that would that very thing.

started!

I'd post something like:

"I'd let her take a shot"

But I'm not going to do that.

never knew about this one
Bath School Disaster - ( New Window )

It still staggers me that there was much hand wringing here when that piece of shit Chris Henry bought the farm while trying to assault his girlfriend.

a straight shooter.

to please

hit the bulls eye with your comments here.

.

shot

we may overshoot the mark, but that's the chance you take.

on target as well.

will certainly have us in their sights now.

There's already been enough sniping on this thread

approach to these puns

and don't want to be seen as going off half-cocked or as a loose cannon.

However, I will bite the bullet, no matter what these sensitive sons of guns have to say. I'm locked and loaded and do not intend to shoot myself in the foot.

While some may see it as shooting from the hip, or jumping the gun, or maybe that we're trigger happy, I would suggest that they not shoot the messenger.

Fire away.

left in the chamber

and shooting blanks.

Your previous work was of the highest caliber.

.

Well played.

Why Ohio?

who knows what kinda damage would occur.


I am not going to take a shot at a pun.

Kent State

really fired off his load and emptied the clip on that one. We're getting some real rapid fire responses here.

There have been a few other incidents at schools outside of Ohio since 1970, I'd wager.

Rob was calling back to that, that's all.

If it happened in Austin, he'd have been able to do the same thing.

Only in Ohio would only work if an infantry platoon started clearing the classrooms with gunfire.

I thought for sure there'd be a NFT: "My child was just shot at school, what should I do? thread" by now.

In all seriousness, though. Any updates on the wounded?

5 wounded, 3 critical

Hope they all pull through.

!!!!

has died at the hospital. 2 others of the remaining 4 are in critical condition.

.

and wasn't shooting randomly.

.

according to kids from the school.

Eerily similar to the VT shooter's pictures.

of Colombine

looking at his surroundings, I'd say the kid was in some pretty dreary location. Bare walls, metal frame institutional style bed......very small room. Almost like he was in a dormitory for troubled youth.

JMHO.

..

.

.

pretty sure he's drawing some conclusions based on the pictures above.

Perhaps this is yankfan?

some pics are blocked at work, so I can't even tell there are supposed to be pictures....

Apparently, it's always the nice quiet kids. From CNN:

Quote:

[Updated 1:19 p.m. ET] A student at Chardon High School said that T.J. Lane, the suspect in Monday's shooting, "was a nice guy" who he never suspected would shoot anyone. �He just came from a really broken down home and he was living with his grandparents," Evan Erasmus, a senior at the school told CNN. "He was more of a quiet type of kid. He was really nice, though, if you did talk to him.� Erasmus said that Lane and some of the victims "used to be friends" but more in middle school and early high school. �He was one of the nicest kids there�," Erasmus said. "It was really shocking that it was him.� Erasmus told CNN that he believed T.J. Lane was either a sophomore or junior at the school. He said that Lane was sitting about a table away from some of the victims. Erasmus said he heard the victims "were all sitting there and then he just stood up and that�s when it all started." Meanwhile, he and the other students in a nearby classroom, "turned the lights off and we headed into a corner" after the shooting.

There's pics of a kid in a green trench coat in a sparse room holding up what looks like a knife, then 2 guns, then a sign dated yesterday.

and an "at risk" student that normally takes a bus to another school.

btw 5 victims, not 4

allegedly, there were also written threats made through facebook or twitter...

Mike in Long Beach please take notes.

get pistols?

to it to get their hands on just about anything be it guns, explosives, drugs, or whatever.

"Omegle" on the sign he's holding up?

Almost any type of weapon if you don't mind that it fell off a truck.

Especially if you are near a large city like Cleveland.

application.

links you up to another random user on the site for conversations.

never understood the appeal of either. chat roulette was apparently notorious for dudes showing their junk.

given that site that was noted, it looks like alot of 'dark loner' bullied outcast stuff is going to come out of the investigation.

AntDog... Mike in St. Louis : 9:31 am where do you see that it was a student who did the shooting, or someone associated with the school?

The suspect is "scared, confused, and extremely remorseful".
