3rd leg of my move from Houston to the Bay Area, and I made it to LA.   I’m just now catching up on the news in my hotel.  I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again—I don’t have kids, but this e

This reminds me of a story a hispanic GF I had at UTin the 80s (no pics) told me about one of her friends back in west Texas. Long story short, her also-hispanic friend got pregnant late in her junior year of high school. Her dad's response was to yank her outta school, since that's where she met the kid who knocked her up. She said it happened all the time out there.

Having gone to high school in West Texas during the 1980s (and therefore hits close to home), that sounds exactly like what happened to a significant share of my graduating class. I started freshman year with about 325-350 students in my cohort, but roughly only 225 graduated on time. I'd guess about a third of the missing 100 were teenage girls who got knocked up and were (likely) forced to drop out by their parents. Today, a few of them are grandmas, and it's not inconceivable a couple might even be 53-year-old great-grandmothers by now.

2/3rds of the country voted for more of this or just stayed home because they didn’t care. This is the country they want.

I wonder if this had happened the day before the election if maybe a few million (OK, tens of thousands) people would have voted.  

Yeah, that's stupid.  Everything is exactly how our fellow Americans want it.

Latest update says a 15 year old female student used a 9mm pistol to kill a teacher and a student, put two other students in critical condition, and injure three other students. An emergency call was received shortly before 11AM, police arrived three minutes later. Although no shots were fired at the cops, it has not been reported that the shooter took her own life.

Police identified her. Her first name is Natalie, but went by the name Samantha. This makes me think she is cisgendered. If that turns out to be true, folks who have speculated, without evidence to support the claim, that she was trans are the fucking worst of humanity.

It's important to fan the flames of bigotry.

Applaud.

This is kind of a handy new term. It can describe either the age of the shooter or the targets of the shooter or both. Next year's word of the year!

Shall not be infringed libtard

Last I checked the Second Amendment had no age restriction. Kids don't shed their constitutional rights when they walk through the classroom door. If the police aren't going to protect our children (indeed, they have no duty to do so) then 100% of all children of all ages should be able to bring as many weapons into the classroom as they want in order to protect themselves.

I don't know, I think the folks that are shooting up the schools are pretty bad people too

Indeed they are the worst.

I hadn't followed the story much yesterday, and only this morning listening to NPR on my drive to work did I learn the shooter was a girl, which struck me because it's so rare.  You can accuse me of painting with a large brush, but the overwhelming majority of our country's school and other mass shootings, as well as other murders and serial killers, have been men.  I'm not trying to unduly flog my own male gender, but the newsworthy aspect of this particular mass shooting that the shooter was a girl merits discussion.  Goddammit men, when are we going to get our shit together?!?!

Usually white men.

Yes, usually white men.  Though I'm sure someone would point to a not insignificant amount of African American gang violence.  So I don't mind broadly speaking of all men and our gender's significant shortcoming when it comes to violence.

Read the manifesto. Absolute unimaginative victimhood garbage. Literally said “it’s not my fault, it’s everyone else’s” about her life and the ills of the world multiple times. Talked about revolution and freedom of thought yet parroted very common racist talking points multiple times. 
 

Similar to Uvalde shooter, she had a romantic partner that she met online and had never met in person.

My daughter wrote this letter to Santa (but left the "Santa" out, stupid kid).  12 years ago.  She was in first grade like those poor children at Sandy Hook.  Shook me to my core when it happened.

Jeeze. I don’t have a single grandparent who wasn’t born in the 1880s-1890s.

It's almost like not-fully-formed adolescent brains, which are quite susceptible to being totally broken, should perhaps not have super-easy access to firearms.

The shooter at Alpine was a girl, iirc. 

Technically not a mass shooter as she only wounded one other girl and only killed herself.

I used to wonder how people who don't like how things are going for them enough to commit atrocities don't realize this, but then the 2024 election happened and I realized Americans are dumber than chimps.

Reports are that it was a 2nd grader who called 911 to report that someone was shooting at school

Correction -- they've now corrected the record to say it was a 2nd grade teacher who called 911, not a second grader. At-the-moment journalism is fucking laughable at times.
