Notice that the most recent school shooting (yesterday!) barely registered as a blip

I also thought the shooters (male and female), were stopped by hero students that stormed them. Did that turn out to be true?
I believe the 18 year old male appears today in court, maybe more information will come out then.
I wonder if it was another case of bullying?

The only info I could find was brief and said they did not know much yet. Then I saw the pic of these little children lined up with their hands over their heads. What more can we do to traumatize these kids. Dried a tear and turned of the news.
