How come there were none last week? Eh? Eh? Can't answer me that one! Trick question! Everyone was out on vacation! But we did have one day without a shooting, the first day. I can't imagine a situation where it takes two days to get someone angry enough to plan something like this though. It's so sad and stupid that we let things like this happen.

Maybe if they had a bully grading system, they could pluck the bullies out into bully sweeting school. Just keep the nice kids. So kids would vote against kids they don't like and the school would segregate them?..... that's apartheid/segregation.... let's not do that.

A voting system would make it more likely a programme like that will be abused by bullies to further alienate their victims and place them in the ‘bully’ school.
