5 dead, including the gunman, a dozen more injured.

This on the heels of the shooting at an Oxnard Jr. High School two days ago.

The media constantly showing loner's pictures all over the place. Stop giving their name and pictures. These balless a-holes do it for the publicity they receive. Stop giving them publicity and this crap will happen far less often.

Here's my angle: a complete and utter lack of sex. That's right. Look at these guys. No way they were having sex, and I can only guess they craved it (circular reasoning, you know it! ), but probably felt guilty because we live in a society that for some reason shuns it. Had these boys been able to pay $50 bucks for sex, in a safe environment (aka legalized prostitution), who knows? I have a good idea that these shootings may have been avoided had the stress been taken off by a girl named Candy.

Also, until a full report on these supposed meds that weren't taken comes out, i'm not buying it, because it just sounds like another advertisement for Zanax to me.

One wonders how civilization was able to function for the 6000 years before prescription medication.

Well, that's because before Video Games, there was no need for medication, because there was no violence.

Doh...kind of like how before rock music, there were no drugs? Sometimes I can be so blind.

Call me a 'compassionate conservative' but I really don't care about this.

I mean, I acknowledge that it's a horrible tragedy and what have you.... but by putting this pyschopath all over the news all we're doing is encouraging more of this crap in the future. I'm becoming somewhat numb to these things.

But what's going to change? Are we going to do something about gun-control? Of course not. We're going to 'pray'. Ah, that magic Jesus solution. Whoopidee-Doo.

no it's the lack of medication that's the problem, not the lack of tighter gun control.

I go to school there. I heard the gunshots down the hall and you wouldnt believe how scared I got (I know, I know sound like a panzy saying that ,but i f'n ran my ass off to my car and went to my apartment and locked the doors. Probably the fastest I've ever ran hearing the screams and the gun shots. It's gonna be tough going back to class whenever we have too

I wouldn't call you a pansy at all. I would call you normal. Glad to hear you got out of there safe and sound......
