"ATLANTA (AP) — Atlanta police are responding to a report of a shooting at a school but had no other immediate details.
Police spokesman Carlos Campos told The Associated Press on Thursday afternoon that he was headed to Price Middle School just south of downtown but would not say why.
TV news helicopters show police activity at the school."
Of course shootings happen all the time and they have been happening for years even before Columbine. The main stream media will just blame the guns but so far one kid and one teacher died. You could kill a kid and a teacher with something other than a gun. Guns aren't too blame. I would blame violence in movies, and on t.v. and video games before I would just blame guns. Guns are a necessary evil for protection from bad people. Which is exactly the answer.
We have armed guards protecting "our" money at banks and "our" politicians. What's wrong with putting armed guards at schools? You think a bad guy is going to try to shoot up a school with an ex-police officer or soldier providing armed protection? I think it would certainly diminish these kinds of instances.
Instead we will just blame guns. Look guns don't kill people, people kill people. Instead of focusing on how people get killed, maybe we should focus on providing more protection to our citizens and understanding the mental illnesses that cause these acts.
