I'm always fascinated by the media term "gunman". If he used a knife, would they call him a "knifeman"? If he swung a baseball bat, would they call him a "batman"?
The terms shooter or perp or POS should be sufficient.

CO gun laws are not severe enough, obviously.

"Gunfighter and gunslinger /ˈɡʌnslɪŋər/, are 20th-century words, used in cinema or literature, referring to men in the American Old West who had gained a reputation as being dangerous with a gun. Gunman was a common term used for these individuals in the 19th century."

One of the students shot actually stopped the shooter.
The shooter when confronted shot the kid, then killed himself.
The student who stood up to the shooter deserves an award, given how liberals think he will probably be suspended for it.

Impossible, I don’t believe it. This school is a gun free zone.

Real people are getting real angry.
Yes, there is the occasional nutball that attracts all the news media attention, but I know middle-aged middle-class mature surbanites that are about ready to twist off.

Isn’t “gunman” a highly bigoted term.

As the article points out, this shooting not only took place near Columbine, but “it’s also in the same county where James Eagan Holmes is accused of having killed 12 people in a movie theater in the town of Aurora last year.”
Must be something in the water around there. They should limit all students to bottled water until further notice.

“Because of all the media hype, and the glorification of past murderers, there will be more of this.”
I said that after the last mass murder.

Liberals are cowards. Every one of them. They only feel brave when they are hiding behind a computer or they outnumber you by at least 10:1.

The portions of the autopsy that involve whatever drugs, such as Ritalin, were in the kid’s system need to be made public.
