Gunshots were fired on the visitor’s side of the stadium at Choctaw High School during the third quarter of their game against Del City High School on Friday. At least four other people sustained injuries as a result of the incident, according to police.

      This pisses me off. I live in Oklahoma and my son is 16 and part of his class assignment is attend live events like a football game but now it could be to dangerous. Sick of this. And Republicans will never change.

        Fuck whoever that teacher is so hard for making kids to go after school activities for a grade. That’s should 100% be a choice. My daughter has major anxiety issues and going to school events, or any events with large crowds is unbearable for her. She had trouble with a lunchtime party we went to recently with 10-20 people. I would read that teacher the fucking riot act.

            I assume by “podcast class” It’s a reporting class, but that term is mostly dead now I guess. In that case, it’s somewhat fair but the rule should just be to make a report on an event in general. (Making a report on this shooting would probably be a good one ironically.) It shouldn’t have to be a school event or really anything in particular. Ideally it’d also require doing research, like a reporter should, and not just reacting to what they see.

            What the fuck is wrong with you? It’s mental illness. Do you tell schizophrenics to man up and stop hearing voices?

              Yes, because this ‘person’ is a fucking idiot. Just move on. They don’t deserve your time.

                  Fair enough as long as it did you some good to get it out.

                  Because there is no chance it’s going to impact this broken idiot in any way.

            Your parents should have raised a smarter, more empethetic, more emotionally healthy child.

      They accomplished their goals, they just lied about what their goals were.

      They’re paid $16 million a year (and millions of single-issue voters who will tolerate absolutely anything as long as they have their guns) to protect the profits of gun companies, and they’ve absolutely accomplished that.

      This child was just another person they don’t give a shit about who had to suffer the consequences.
