So far just two injured. But, they're not really sure. Shooter had a hand gun and a rifle. Cops got there fast and got the guy.

The more media attention...the more kids follow suit...

I have to agree, one of the problems with this media age is the extreme coverage and exposure. It sets the stage for more nutcakes to go over the edge. Of course we can't have a news blackout but I sure wish there was some way to be selective...I know in reality it can't be done. Good grief I am so glad that I am not a parent in this day and age.

toke-

I'm afraid you're right.

A local teacher has resigned because of an inappropriate reference to the Columbine shootings...

HOMEDALE -- A longtime Homedale High School teacher has resigned over inappropriate comments he made relating to the Columbine High School shooting in Colorado, according to local television news reports.

Frank Craig, an English teacher who had been at the school for the past 21 years, resigned from his job Tuesday.

Craig told students that "if you don't behave for this substitute, I'll make Columbine look like a Sunday picnic," according to the reports.

When those in search of attention see the reaction that results from even a comment regarding school shootings, it's no mystery why they choose that method to make their "statement".

What kind of "statement" do you think these
kids are trying to make?

I don't believe it's media attention alone.
