Live updates: Shooting at Perry High School in Iowa

Just in time for GQP candidates there for the cacuses to pledge allegiance to the NRA.

But we shouldn’t politicize the issue. It’s really about mental health. Arm the lunch lady and come up with better doors.

"Now is not the time to talk about gun laws.
Thoughts and prayers to those who took a bullet for freedom."

With all the GOP candidates gathered for the caucuses, maybe they can join hands and sing "Kumbaya" together.

The national media were already there to cover the caucus and pivoted quickly. A lot of them were already very familiar with Perry due to previous stump appearances there in years past.

Sad ending, for a tremendously good man by all accounts.
The Des Moines Register did a really fine job honoring him ...

Perry High School Principal Dan Marburger,
wounded in Jan. 4 shootings, dies early Sunday

RIP, sir.

That was a difficult read. He died the way we all should live. And that his family and community is showing grace to the shooter's family is, somehow, not a surprise.

Don’t forget. God also wants his children to have guns, according to another GOPer.

Don’t forget. God also wants his children to have guns, according to another GOPer.

"Jesus arms the little children
Not the red, black, yellow but the white
Get more ammo from the right
Assault rifles with a sight
Jesus arms the little children of the world."

"Jesus loves guns, this I know
For the Second tells me so
Little ones will endure no harm
As long as they are fully armed
Yes, Jesus loves guns
Yes, Jesus loves guns
Yes, Jesus loves guns
The far right tells me so."

Last November, a man showed up outside a private school in Memphis carrying what appeared to be an assault rifle, forcing the school into lockdown as a precaution. But police told parents that, under Tennessee law, the man was doing nothing illegal as long as he did not start shooting or threatening to shoot.

Parent Kyle Taylor posted an incredulous video to Instagram.

"So my kids are not in danger because he hasn't fired the weapon? I don't get it," Taylor said. "How is this normal? Like, why is it normal?"

Enough is wrong with the population as a whole that they should not have this amount of access to weapons and this degree of weapons.

Only the insane or delusional would argue this.
