"During that search, the student got hold of a weapon..." Huh?

Chief Thomas said the suspect, a male student at East High School, was under a safety plan where he had to be patted down and searched in a front office before school each day. He said this had happened every day for a while without a problem, but on Wednesday, this student pulled a firearm and shot and injured the two deans.

Tay is going to be upset...

"In terms of what we can expect at East from here until the end of the school year, in collaboration with Chief Thomas and with support from our mayor and also communicated this to the Board of Education that we will have two armed officers here at East until the end of the school year," he said.

dang it, didn't get that law passed preventing anyone under 21 from purchasing a weapon passed quite quick enough. I'm sure that would've prevented this tragedy

Wait a minute. So the solution to your gun problem is to bring in people with guns? How can any anti-gun person rationalize this?

Standard intellectually lacking comments from the usual suspects...

In their eyes, the sane, moral and responsible teens who have access to weapons everyday are no different, and probably worse, the hood rat who committed the crime today.

It's as if the gun in question kidnapped the perp and forced him to fire at the faculty members.

I guess the hood rat was a recent transfer from Commerce City looking to get a "fresh start". Instead of getting moved to a new school, he should been worried about being "fresh" for Bubba and his friends in the local lock-up.

Looked online and didn't see the Denver "news" stations live streaming from the school. Wonder why that is. (I could speculate, but we all know.)

He was a dirtbag that had to be searched everyday because of previous "issues". Likely a last attempt to keep him out of jail.

They tried to search him today and he started blasting.

Channel 9 keeps interviewing the little shits that were walking out of class at the protests organized my Moms Demand Action. They all want "something" to be done but no one will come out and tell the truth that they want to end private ownership of firearms.

Yes, Tay will be under a tiny bit of scrutiny for removing SROs from schools but his constituency will continue to support him. He will likely call for more stringent "gun control laws".

From 9news-

Part of the argument to remove the SROs was that they unfairly target students of color, and make them wary of law enforcement early in their lives.

After the shooting Wednesday, Denver Mayor Michael Hancock released a statement that called the decision to remove SROs a "mistake" and said, "we must move swiftly to correct it."

Today is a good day to ask the state legislators how this would have been prevented by all the currently proposed legislation.

How exactly is a rainbow made? How exactly does a sun set? How exactly does a posi-trac rear-end on a Plymouth work? It just does.
