    I can no longer contain my disappointment. Regulators, mount up!

    Hell of a job by the student. Hope he gets everything that a hero deserves.

    The gunman was reloading a shotgun when the student, working as a building monitor, used pepper spray and knocked him down, Police Capt. Chris Fowler told reporters.

    These dead kids also do not trump Joe the Plumber's constitutional rights, in case anyone was wondering.

    One, and possibly one more to come.

    Is that not enough for Joe?

    So, at this point, MC is just exaggerating to score political points?

    Kids is plural. I know MC usually likes to be factual.

    He's just projecting that the other victim isn't going to make it? Seriously, why does this continue to happen? Is it simply that there are just that many disillusioned/crazy kids out there? I am really coming around to the idea that there is a copycat element to it. I don't believe the media is glorifying it, but there has to be something to these kids wanting to go out with some headlines. Damn. So fucking crazy.

    The real hero was Police Lt. Corso for telling the gunman, "Not so fast, my friend."

    Not enough for the NRA, I'm sure. The more, the merrier.
