School shooting in TX - at least 10 people dead

Wonder what type of gun was used. If it was an AR, you can bet there will be a bunch of people flipping out about it again.

It was a shotgun and a revolver, one of which was endorsed by VP Joe Biden and the other is the wrong kind to be demonized. Specifically no EBRs to hate and blame the NRA for. The guy was all kinds of mixed up - In addition to a current military insignia from Germany (iron cross) he had a communist symbol. a satanist symbol, a japanese flag, and a cthulu pin on the jacket he wore all the time, and he assigned wrong meanings to all of them. And he was possibly/allegedly bullied by classmates AND teachers.



There's no "see my agenda is superior" points on this one so the story may not have much traction in the mainstream press. There may not be any "student led" protests this time because the agitation is all on the "teachers need more money for themselves . . . for the children" narrative right now. Plus the guy's name is unpronounceable gibberish to people who never met a Greek in their lives.
