Hate to see this...

A shooter opened fire at a high school in Washington state Wednesday, killing one person and injuring at least three others, authorities said.

Likely there was bullying and social media going on. Just a guess.

Spokane is a lot different than Seattle.

Sad to hear of this, tragic for the parents, families, and classmates.

Amazingly, the article has information about the incident.

Michael Harper, 15, a sophomore at the school, told The Associated Press that the suspect was a classmate who had long been obsessed with past school shootings.

Harper said the suspect had brought notes to Freeman High in the beginning of the year, saying he might get killed or jailed and that some students alerted counselors.

Harper said the shooter had many friends and wasn't bullied, calling him "nice and funny and weird."

Well somebody ignored the warning signs, and doctors did not reveal the warning signs in a number of these tragedies. The Newtown, CT kid had a loud, verbal confrontation with the principal the day before he attacked the school. Did the principal bother to file a report? The responsibility needs to be spread around.

-Thank you kids for bringing this to our attention. Others have come to us already and we have told hall monitor Mrs. Beverly to notify us with her walkie-talkie if she see's anything.

Also Mr. Counselor, Kyle said he was getting picked on cause he's gay.
-This is outrageous and we have arranged for the entire school body to be assembled in the Gym later today, where they will be given their new mandatory attendance schedules in Mr. Schwump's sensitivity class.
