IIRC the teacher expressed concerns about the student having a gun, and the school administration said something like, "he has tiny pockets! a gun can't fit in tiny pockets" and she got shot like less than an hour later. I used quotations but it's not an exact quote.
This is actually kind of hilarious, how do you fuck up this bad

Seems like they’re already giving the incompetent superintendent a golden parachute. 500k for getting someone shot.
I'll give you a little bit to consider what ones life is like after being shot.
And they'll still continue to vote against their interests. 🙄
Can we just get whoever these chucklefucks are and ask them why they were so unconcerned with the fact that three different people came to them talking about a 6 year old they're in charge of being seen with a gun?? Isn't the normal response to ONE person telling you about a child being seen with a gun on school grounds to actually investigate whatever is going on?
I remember when a kid got suspended because he pointed a chicken nugget at a teacher and said bang...
How? By not giving a flying fuck.
When you've got this level of stupidity in charge of those expected to educate the next generation, I think you may have already lost.
