<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>NICKEL MINES, PA. (AP) - Six people were shot to death at a one-room Amish schoolhouse in Pennsylvania's bucolic Lancaster County Monday, and at least three young girls were hospitalized in critical condition, authorities said.It was the nation's third deadly school shooting in less than a week, and one of the deadliest in U.S. history."So far, six confirmed dead, and the helicopters are pulling into (Lancaster General Hospital) like crazy," Coroner G. Gary Kirchner said.It wasn't immediately clear if the shooter was among the six. State Police Cpl. Ralph Striebig said earlier that the shooter was dead, but he released no details about that person or a possible motive.Three girls, ages 6-12, were admitted to Lancaster General Hospital in critical condition with gunshot wounds, spokesman John Lines said. Officials at the Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center confirmed that victims also were being admitted there.</div>http://ap.lancasteronline.com/4/amish_school_shootingI have been to this area plenty of times, Wow. He killed the little girls execution style. He tied them up and shot them at point black.Sick.
These shootings are getting out of hand...there needs to be more security in the schools if this is gnna be a trend.
Schools have no money to be paying for more security...and I think it's a waste of money in 90% of schools. Schools simply have no money to be paying for metal detectors and security to operate them. Having an extra security officer would solve nothing. My friend can hide 9 firearms and multiple knives on him while wearing regular clothing (he did it for a law enforcement speech)....<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Devlin @ Oct 2 2006, 02:13 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>This must happen a lot in the US...Thats scary.</div> Not really, this year so far it's been under 10...With nothing major happening in the news the media is really focusing in on them.

It's not more dangerous to go to school than it is to drive your car down the highway. So yeah, whatever.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>My friend can hide 9 firearms and multiple knives on him while wearing regular clothing</div> A strict dress code policy could fix that but again impossible to relegate it in most public schools. Especially ones who feel it hinders their rights. Kind of like most on here who felt the dress code in the NBA was bad. People want things set right but fail to do the things right themselves.

I didn't "compare" the two; I merely said it is less dangerous to go to school than it is to hop in your car and drive around on a daily basis. I don't know why you bother arguing with me just for the sake of trying to be an ***hole. It just shows how much of a moron you really are.Edit: Not only that, but adults have been shot in these shootings as well, not just children.
You instigated the feud by posting in my welcome thread. No one was talking about the chance of dying, obviously this is far more horrific then someone being killed in a car crash so that was just a retarded point.

You got your panties in a bunch. I'll make sure to burp you next time you get gassy, then maybe you won't be so upset.How exactly is a few people getting shot a few times a year more horrific than thousands of people getting smashed through windshields, run over by other vehicles, rattled to death like a pinball in their car, etc.? Please do explain.
Hey, the cops should come down real hard on these assholes. Shooting kids aint cool. The people who perpetrate these crimes should be executed in a very barbaric, horrific, slow and messy way. Ya know, to send a message.
