‘Officials at the scene recovered a 9mm weapon and one shell casing… but are yet to identify the child and the parents.’

Really? A six year old pulls out a loaded gun in his elementary school class and pops his teacher with it, and we don’t get to know who his parents are? If you lived anywhere near degenerates who leave loaded guns around the house (and this is the best scenario, right? maybe they gave the kid a loaded gun to take to school), wouldn’t you want rather desperately to know about that? Wouldn’t you really – for the sake of your familyhave an absolute right to that information?

Who are they? Where do they live? How did they create a six-year-old mass killer? Think of how small the hands of six year olds are. How did they make a six year old who can whip out a gun and kill people with it? Even Dylan Klebold waited til he was seventeen to shoot up Columbine. Even Adam Lanza waited til he was twenty to shoot everybody at Sandy Hook. SIX years old and already at it?

Of course this is the evolution of bloody America. Not long ago you had to be a teenager to get a gun and kill everyone; now you can be six. We don’t yet have any laws to deal with our baby massacrists because we didn’t think they were possible. Silly us. We have an arms industry making smaller and smaller guns. We have computer games designed (ask Adam Lanza) to make killers out of lunatics and babies.

***********************

And here you are, a family unable to afford to take your kid out of the public school killing fields and how do you feel about that, folks? How do you feel about living somewhere near unidentified degenerates who put guns in the hands of their small children?

At the very very least, the names and addresses of sick fucks who give their babies guns need to be published. I mean, yes, we’re totally as a country losing this battle anyway. But every little bit helps.
