    This worries me

    Because the search cloud thing includes Gay Issues, and the related poll is about Marijuana. Really? That's what you're saying, Opposing Views? That this particular school shooter was gay, smoked pot?

    Impossible!

    But, wait, aren't guns prohibited in school? How could this have happened? Oh, because people intent on harming others don't obey laws, that's why. Stop requiring that children be sitting ducks, and ensuring that the only armed person in every incident is the attacker.
