Not if the teacher was positioned in front of them.

Have heard the shooter was going room to room. Utter chaos. No correct play. Sad ****ing times.

Exactly. **** the media. I won't read the story just because of how they try acting as if they should be involved in the story somehow.

How do we suddenly know who the shooter was when there have been no official reports yet? Are we 100% sure this is the shooter?

Eh, that guy seemed pretty clearly insane, although a type of insane that manifested with racist, right-wing ideation. At any rate, I don't think that's what most people think of, or mean for that matter, by the word "terrorism," especially in America post 9/11.

I can't believe this piece of **** didn't kill himself. I hope he gets violently raped every day and is never heard from again.

Edit: nevermind, just saw he is dead, **** this.
