-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
I hate how desensitized I am to these things. The thing that surprised me most in the coverage is that they went back to school on Aug 1st
When I was working at a 7-11 a decade ago a friend of mine was killed in a murder suicide by her ex and they had the store open again within an hour of the crime scene cleanup crew leaving and all my boss told me was "you can take tomorrow off if you need to".
mfer died of a heart attack a few years ago and I fuckin hope it was the longest most excruciating heart attack death on record.
I remember when Columbine was still the shooting, and basically the only major one for nearly a decade until the Virginia Tech one, then Sandy Hook...then the dam burst
It is wild those kids were nazis and they blamed it on quake.
Quake might have had something yo do with it if the kids bunnyhopped to avoid return fire. However the cops at the time were still on dial up so their lag was so abd they couldn't compete.
They didn't even rocket jump over the wall to escape the cops. Noobs.
I'm not trying to be weird or sound weird about it, but when the blood of white children can't tip the scales against the gold of the gun lobby, it's over. Roll credits.
It's so frustrating that we have done zero things other than give more cops more resources. That's been our only thing we have done to protect kids and teachers. I hate it so much. It sucks so much such vulnerable group is just left to without protection in any sense of the world. We done nothing socially, infrastructure-ly, poltically, any other -ally i can think of other than give cops more money. I hate it.
Here's a little secret, both parties were going to give them record funding year after year regardless! And look how well that's turned out, we still have school shootings but the cops are too busy shooting black teenagers in the back.
Profound Pain
Yep, nothing will ever be done.
The only time kids’ actions can force the government to do anything is when the kids protest against “Israel.” All other actions—even being murdered—just lead to more of the same.
Those white children were not part of rich and influential families. The scales will be pushed off the cliffs if these things started happening in the idyllic neighborhoods. Nothing is ever done because those who have the power to do something have nothing to fear.
And with "only" four deaths this one will be forgotten about in a week.
That's why I was hesitant to even post this because it was only four killed, but I feel like this is a nice reminder of the terminal rot decline of the empire amid all the promises of Madam President Copmala to "fix" everything.
The groyper nazis would say that's nowhere near the high score.
I said it before and I’ll say it again. Humanity will die laughing.
Nazis will gladly eat shit if everyone else has to smell it on their breath.
I hate how much my brain just ticks this as "this is just a thing now, don't think about it much man". It's not a just a desensitization to me, I'm mad that it's "normalized" to me. These kids, teachers, and staff should never EVER have to even think about this sort of thing. School is hard enough without the looming threat of real mortal death.
