I don't know how close the shooter got to him; enough so everyone was forced to hide.

I sometimes laugh hysterically at these goofy and ridiculous conspiracy theories, and sometimes I am disgusted and write angry responses.

He was hovering under a desk gathering information from other students at the time of the shooting. What good did that do anyone but him and his life as far as saving lives of his fellow students and teachers during the shooting and after the shooting was over? Was he forced to hide or was he taught to hide by blue teachers and blue policy makers? We weren't taught to hide and take notes during a crisis. We were taught to attack, fight for and defend our lives and the lives of others as well.

Well, this is the 21st century, doncha know, and he wasn't taking notes, he was recording with his little device, you know, one of those smart things made here in blue Silicon Valley....

You were taught to attack, but in your day there weren't AR-15s and such around, so many of them, and there's not much chance of doing anything but hide. He was forced to hide, by circumstances.

So now they are fighting for their lives by pushing for gun control. A very noble cause, and as he said, "we WILL save lives!"

Quote:Hmm...Maybe that's the difference/separating point between red and blue males and females and older more reddish and younger more blueish generations. What conspiracy theory, the theory that blues have something ( a negative/prejudiced view, a negative/prejudiced belief, an unsubstantiated fear of guns and gun owners) against the 2nd Amendment and everyone who supports it and working to protect it from blues who want to discard it and disarm America. There's a difference between the Russian collusion conspiracy theory that some blues are still clinging to and still believing in than the belief that reds have gained from interaction and observation of blues speaking with blues and official statements and positions that clearly have been taken by prominent blues in blue forums and blue Democrats over many years.

Fear of guns is of course impossible to deny, or criticize. The only rational response to guns is to fear them. It's no theory; it's rather obvious. It's a rational fear, which should lead people to protect society from them, whether by background checks, rules for storage, limits on ammo magazines, limits and bans on war weapons, voluntary buy backs, or taking guns away eventually, if the people fully someday realize that this should happen.

The distraction from education, as Ryan Deitsch said, is not going to rallies or walkouts; it's "staring down the barrel of a gun"

The Russia collusion theory seems on the verge of getting bigger, and maybe proven, but the facts should be clearer some day soon, and that will be better than any theory, regardless of what the facts are. I'm not a fan of conspiracy theories.
