“I led several students to a room which I had fortified on my own with Trapper Keepers and threw myself into the line of fire to protect those children with no regard for my own safety,”

-Brian Williams

"Journalists" are always surprised by truth, because they so seldom run across it, and certainly never speak it.

And when they do stumble across it they quickly pick themselves up, dust themselves off and pretend that nothing happened.

I noticed from interviews that there are quite a few well-poised well-spoken students at that school. They were giving good accounts of their experiences without stumbling, searching for words or speaking in slang. Impressive given the trauma they had just been through.

Perhaps they were selected out for that but the press hasn’t done than in previous situations like this. They usually stick a microphone in front of anyone who is willing to speak.

I think if he was expelled 3 times, he should be enrolled in a prison like school until he graduates or get in even worse trouble, which means adult prison.

Terrorist threats were committed by this person, long before the deadly recent episode.

He should have been locked up.

I’m surprised they didn’t pre-screen his answer to make sure it fit the narrative.

Banning guns will give a president like hillary a perfect opportunity to march the Christians to the gas chambers.
