The gunman must have thought he was in Chicago.
Or Guadalahara.
No. Historically many school shootings happen within a mile or so of an active drill, time after time after time. The drill is NEVER at the site of the shooting, but is close enough to give cover for a larger than usual LEO presence in the area, and ‘splain away a faster that usual (but often ineffectual) response.
Pay attention next time, (which I predict will be soon, I’ll go further out on a limb and guess Halloween) or you can dig out the historical data, unless google has Fahrenheit 404’d the articles.
Spree is NOT the correct term in THIS case.
a spell or sustained period of unrestrained activity of a particular kind.
“he went on a six-month crime spree”
“unrestrained”. Apparently he restrained himself from killing strangers.
” Authorities say this was not a random shooting, that all of the victims are connected with this senseless act of violence”
“ALL” of the victims....
“Spree” and “Rampage” are “trigger words” to HYPE the story and are total misrepresentations in THIS case.
In other words, LIES ... FAKE NEWS...
A heinous crime against the English language.
Of course they're connected by virtue of being victims.
What were they trying to say?
“They” are reporters/urinalists, so how would “they” know?
I have been directly and peripherally involved in investigating a few, "crimes of passion." In some cases the children are viewed as possessions in a, "If I can't have them, she won't either." Sad. Very sad.
It is GLARINGLY obvious you did not click on the link.
You can lead a horse to data, but you can’t make him think.
No names of the perp or victims, eh?
Si
Yes, people who kill themselves seem to often get a Ill take the kids with me notion. Hopefully though the children dont end up where their murderer does.
No. Historically many school shootings happen within a mile or so of an active drill, time after time after time.
Has anyone compiled any data to support your conclusion?
Good question. Not as far as I know, but several FReepers have commented on the coinky-dink.
Let’s see if anyone else has the data.
Pinging the N-JCT list for inputs, please.
Yeah but if you killed the wife, she won’t get them.
I think it is more of “If I can’t have them, no one can have them”. I had a relative like that.
It's not a conspiracy. The names will be released after they've been positively identified and next of kin has been notified.
The only time the cops intentionally withhold the name is when it's a fellow cop.
And, to be fair if scores of mass shooter drills are held every week, a few of them are bound to coincide in time and space with random events.
To be paranoid, the shooters find out about a drill and schedule their shootings accordingly.
To be really, really, really paranoid, both events are scheduled by the same entity.
Hmmmm.
Clearly the victim was trying to buy a weapon to save his own life.
He can now return in ten days, pay the fees, and get the weapon to protect his own home and life.
...wait... never mind.
“No names of the perp or victims, eh?”
Thanks. I was going to have another morning cup of coffee to see if I missed reading the name of the perp and names of the victims.
