I have no words, sucks to be an American a lot of the times, especially when things like this happen.

Not a biological woman, so as you were.

That wasn't the aspect of the story that shocked me though.

As abhorrent as killing 6 people is (incl 3 young kids) the most surprising (for me) was it was the 89th US school shooting this year. 303 last year so on course to break the record! Basically every day!

A country where the government doesn’t make any effort to restrict gun violence, but does spend money on training primary school children on how to react to a mass shooter on site.

We have friends over there and one being a teacher and they have 3 different types of full evacuation/hide in class etc procedures that they practice every month, must be terrifying for the children to have to do that depending on the alarm that gets pressed and very sad to see.

It’s getting to the point where they’re going to arm teachers in the classroom isn’t it

Bizarre country. I read the other day a teacher resigned/sacked for showing a photo of Michaelangelo’s David!! Parents declared it pornographic 😩

Yep - sacked. It wasn't just a random picture of David - it was a fucking Renaissance art class. How can you teach Renaissance art WITHOUT including that?
I was going to draw this comparison, Bodicote. Lunacy!

Interesting that the American shooter (today's one) kept their birth name (Audrey Hale) but supposedly identifies as male and has preferred pronouns of he/him - but the Independent article refers to them as she/her throughout! Good job the dead can't sue!
