  1. Now THAT’S how it’s supposed to be.
    You are your own first responder.
    No pissing and moaning and waiting for SOMEONE ELSE to make the first move and “do something”.

  2. I’m wondering why there’s very little if any coverage of this story today. I expected nothing but gun control bull shit. There must be something about the little coward that they have not disclosed yet.

  3. Don’t worry the FBI has started its investigation and has everything under control. We can trust them to get to the bottom of this and relinquish to the public nothing but the facts.

  4. @Brad, interesting. When I first searched for a photo, it was obviously when he was younger and not looking like that! He went from looking like a wholesome normal kid to that in a short amount of time.

    Well hopefully they finally pass legislation that will prevent a 14 year old from grabbing an AR, taking it to school and killing people. I mean, that should all be illegal.

    I’m seeing some postings that he was into the alt bullshit. Self marginalized so that he had something to point to for being a perpetual underachiever other than himself. I’m not convinced yet that this is accurate.

  7. Authorities are investigating whether the AR-style weapon used in the attack was a gift purchased by Mr Gray in December 2023, law enforcement sources told CBS News, the BBC’s US partner.
    CNN reported that the weapon was a holiday present to his son.
    In May 2023, the FBI sent local sheriff’s deputies to interview the boy and his father after being alerted to online threats about a school shooting.

  8. How in the hell does a kid walk in with a rifle of any sort? Schools here have one (1), count ’em o-n-e door to enter the school from. Glad the armed SRO was there, not sure what training he had that doesn’t include shooting to stop the threat after intent was clearly demonstrated.
