Another school shooting. This time in Maryland.

Courtesy of the AP: 

A shooting at a Maryland high school Tuesday wounded three people, including the shooter, a sheriff’s spokeswoman said. 

Authorities said the situation was “contained” as deputies and federal agents converged on the crime scene. 

St. Mary’s County Sheriff spokeswoman Cpl. Julie Yingling said three people hurt, including the shooter. She didn’t know the extent of their injuries, but said all three were taken to hospitals and none were killed. 

The Baltimore Sun reported that a student said the shooting happened around 8 a.m. Terrence Rhames, 18, told the Sun that he heard a gunshot and saw a girl fall as he ran for an exit. “I just thank God I’m safe,” Rhames said. “I just want to know who did it and who got injured.”

I held off on posting about this because as usual there was all kinds of misinformation coming out, including that there were far more than three shot, including some fatalities.

What we think we know now is that there was one shooter, weapon unknown, who fired on at least two students and was taken down by a school resource officer. The shooter and a female student remain in critical condition.
So keep in mind that the school HAS a police presence on campus and still there were students shot.

The fact that there were no fatalities (As of yet.) is good news, VERY good news.

The bad news is that it appears that this will never end.

Update: Okay new reports are that the shooter has died.

Let's hope he is the only fatality from this unfortunate, and all too common, incident.

      I can't believe my own eyes

      I heard a lot of stories

      I'm walking away

      I seen the red sky in the morning

      I do believe I'll take warning
      Taking my leave to stay

      17 year old Draylen Mason was killed by a bomb on March 12.
      The FedEx store in Sunset Valley – an independent municipality surrounded by the city of Austin – is just two miles from where a bomb exploded in a residential subdivision Sunday night, injuring two men.
      Four bombs placed in neighborhoods across Austin have killed two people and injured four others since March 2.

She thought they were going to be together for real.”

      Justice Jennifer Schecter in the Manhattan Supreme Court said there was “absolutely no authority” to dismiss or stay a civil lawsuit by Summer Zervos related “purely to unofficial conduct” because Trump was U.S. president.
      The ruling could force Trump to submit to questioning by lawyers for Zervos and lead to further public scrutiny of other claims of sexual misconduct that have been made against the president."

    "Speaking with the station, the teen’s parents claimed that their son had been bullied since moving into the district last year, and that things took a turn for the worse when a photo of him in his underwear was circulated by his classmates this year.

    “He came to us and said that he’s been really upset and said that he’s been planning to do something bad,” the boy’s stepfather explained before adding the bullying has “been relentless.”

    Explaining that his stepson confessed on Sunday that he had stolen guns from his grandfather and cut them down to fit into a bag, the father said he planned to focus on classmates who he felt had hurt him.

    “He wanted to blow the school up on top of him,” the stepfather stated. “I was in shock. I just couldn’t believe it. … We couldn’t think at that point. How’d this even get to this point?”“He wanted to go. He knew that he needed help,” the stepfather said. “He walked right into the lobby and was like, ‘This is what I’ve been planning on doing.’ He said, ‘This is where you can find everything.'”

    On Monday he was arraigned on eight criminal charges, including felony larceny of weapons, possession of a short-barreled shotgun or rifle, attempted manufacture of explosives and a misdemeanor charge of possession of a Molotov cocktail."

What if the media actually covered the kids that completely disagree with you? What if we had put armed guards in every school in America five years ago when the NRA first pushed for it?”
    “What if the football coach who heroically sacrificed his life had an AR-15 instead of empty hands?”
    “What if I told you that calling someone a bitch because they disagree with you isn’t American, it’s just childish.”
    " As Noir does during the ad, Loesch smeared student protesters for purportedly being organized by anti-Semitic forces." "Hogg has been among the prominent Parkland student voices calling for gun control, the NRA has responded to the shooting by pushing for militarizing schools and arming teachers. Those proposals are supported by President Trump, who parroted the NRA’s talking points during his speech last month at CPAC."

    " Lack of agreement on abortion will probably make chances of passing the bill by the Friday deadline very unlikely.

    Although Senator Collins voted for the misguided Republican tax bill based on a promise that her ACA fixes would be passed into law, this does not appear to be happening. Count it as just another broken promise by Republicans who seem determined to undermine Obamacare" ABORTION!
