    It's called ambrosia. I didn't know what it was called till about 10 years ago.

    Texas Gov. Greg Abbott not only joins the "thoughts and prayers" club, but is organizing a round table.

    I believe the military calls this a rear-guard action.

    I guess we could have another national conversation. Those are extremely effective.

    We're not going to do anything about it. This is the cost of freedom in America, and we accept it.

    Gun owners aren't going to accept their role.

    The media aren't going to accept their role.

    And on down the line.

    Price of the first two amendments. The battle is over.

    Lyrics to "T.V. Guide" by Todd Snider

    More tough news on the late night TV
    News lady tells me that it's cold outside
    Man gets his carjacked, graveyard gets ransacked
    Everybody knows that there ain't no place to hide
    Late night drive-by, there's blood on the sidewalk
    Rain's gonna wash out that stain someday
    That stupid kid should have known this ain't no cakewalk
    You can't just wear your bandana that way

    Ain't that freedom for you
    Ain't that freedom for you
    Freedom American style

    Hot car rollin' down an empty highway
    The keys were in it man it serves the owner right
    The youg girl attacked in the woods off the parkway
    She should have known not to jog alone at night

    Drugs rule downtown, gangs rule midtown
    You're on your own when they both collide
    I keep my doors locked with bars on my window
    Got an alarm in my car, keep my kids inside

    Ain't that freedom for you
    Ain't that freedom for you
    Freedom American style

    More tough news on the late night TV
    News lady tells me that it's cold outside
    Man gets his carjacked, graveyard gets ransacked
    Everybody knows that there ain't no place to hide
    I keep my arms around whatever I've got
    It's an alright world but you know I watch myself
    I'm virtually free to do whatever I want
    But I try to remember so is everybody else

    Ain't that freedom for you
    Ain't that freedom for you
    Freedom American style
    Ain't that freedom for you
    Freedom American style

    Governor Greg Abbott said the suspect used a shotgun and a .38 revolver that he appeared to have taken from his father, who legally owned the weapons.

    We are all good here, folks. The weapons were all legally purchased. AND, he used a Molotov cocktail. What do you want us to do, outlaw bottles? And hi-test gasoline???

    A good guy with an M-80 could have stopped this.

    There were reports he had an AR15 type firearm. But don’t call it an assault weapon because the gun nuts will have an embolism.

    School superintendent Dr Leigh Wall said in a statement: "We experienced an unthinkable tragedy at our high school this morning."

    Have you listened to your own students, dum-dum? They don't think it's unthinkable.... they expect it!!!
