Quote:At least two people were injured in a shooting at Arapahoe High School in Centennial, Colo. on Friday.

Police are calling this an active shooter situation as of 1 p.m., according to 9 News. At least one student was critically injured, according to KDVR.

Around 1:15 p.m., Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson told CALL7 he believed the shooter was still inside the school.

Arapahoe High School is part of Littleton Public Schools and has about 2,000 students.

Ryan Parker of the Denver Post tweeted a photo of the scene outside the school, noting that students told him the gunman had also been shot:

I haven't seen it posted by any news agency yet, but I'm seeing posts on FB saying that the shooter killed himself.

From politico:

"The gunman responsible for Friday's shooting at Arapahoe High School in Colorado is being described as a "socialist" by his fellow students.

"He was friendly enough. Very proud of being a socialist. He was very outspoken on his political views," student Angie Mock said. "To him, it just meant economic -- more economic equality."
"

Why is it this people doing these shootings are all lefties? Seems to be more proof that liberalism is a mental disorder.

Wanting there to be more economic equality means there must be something wrong with them, I suppose. They should have been happy letting corporations have all the money. Where do these guys get off thinking money should be working for the people instead? Fucking nuts, I tell you.

Bring on the right wing radicals. Let's have some order in this place. Corporate profits must be assured, you know.

You will like this Facebook post by the shooter:

Quote:"[Y]ou republicans are so cute" his post reads, with an image that says: "The Republican Party: Health Care: Let 'em Die, Climate Change: Let 'em Die, Gun Violence: Let 'em Die, Women's Rights: Let 'em Die, More War: Let 'em Die. Is this really the side you want to be on?"

Glad he was one of yours...

Give people no hope and some of them are going to turn on you, that part's a no brainer. I hope Monsanto still does well though.

I guess his motto should have been....

"Let me die!"

He just misspelled the middle word.

Quote:A School Shooting Has Taken Place In _____, Leaving ____ Dead

“Hundreds of students fled in terror and many others huddled in the corners of locked-down classrooms on Friday after a gunman opened fire at _______ High School.”

I’ll fill in the blank and add some details in a second, but can we take a second to go big picture?

When you read that opening sentence from Denver Post’s now-headline story about a shooting in Centennial, Colorado that left one person in critical condition and another injured, what did you feel?

Fear? Unless you’re a parent of a high schooler, probably not.

Uncontrollable hatred? Unconsolable sadness? Probably not those either.

We’ve read that sentence too often too recently for it to pierce us the way the reporting of the Colombine shooting did in 1999. In just 15 years, we’ve gone from asking, “How could this possibly happen?” to “How long until this happens again?” In those 15 years, we’ve pointed the finger at everyone and everything from Marilyn Manson to gun control to violent video games, and yet it’s continuing to happen to the point of numbing absurdity. Somehow, graphic retellings of children being murdered have the same media shelf-life as the latest irrelevant gaffe made by a politician.

But that is where we’re at now.

When I tell you that a gunman shot two people at Arapahoe High School 8 miles east of that same Colombine High School and that at least one of them is a student who is in critical condition, you’re going to sigh heavily. A little piece of your heart might calcify a bit. You’ll wonder about the shooter, hoping facts will help alleviate the feeling of impotent frustration you’re feeling, and when you hear that his body was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, you won’t know whether that makes it better or worse.

You’ll spend the next few hours, maybe the next few days, learning more and more details about what went on that, in the long run, won’t really matter much. You’ll see the useless Facebook status updates from friends and family echoing how much of a tragedy this is. You’ll read articles that will have to mention that tomorrow is the one-year anniversary of the Newton, Connecticut shooting and that this took place a stone’s throw away from possibly the most infamous school shooting in our history. You will understand that this a part of our national conscience now, but you also understand that it will not be a part of our national conversation much longer.

You won’t know whether that makes it better or worse.

I guess if I was a parent that had firearms in my house I would be having some serious discussions and buying a gun safe.

Again, (IMO) I think we have a mental health issue that isn't being addressed, needed parental involvement, and responsibility.

Yesterday you were saying mental health issues could be dealt with if parents would only use the rod more instead of medications. I hope you're not holding yourself out there as any kind of mental health expert.

I think the reports on the past speak for themselves. Yeah, the past shooters had it altogether!

You're not following the after action reports of the shootings. I won't do your work for ya, your of big boy.

Of course, if you want to be that naive, be my guest!

And I did preface my statement with a 'IMO'
