2. This shit did not happen when I was in high school. I don't understand what's wrong with people now.
I'll turn 53 in just over two weeks. I'm very frustrated by these stories. I'd appreciate anyone explaining to me what's gone wrong.

4. This just happened NEAR a school, had nothing to do with any schools
Sheesh. And what about an update on the manhunt? Looks like they haven't found the guy yet. So there's still a gunman loose in the valley?
