[Horrible]

Unpossible! I thought that these types of things were “uniquely American”?!

6th Grader Shot Teacher, Students in Mexican Border State School

Mexican officials confirmed that a sixth grade student shot teachers and students at a school in Coahuila before turning the gun on himself.

The shooting took place on Friday morning at the Cervantes School in Torreon, Coahuila, when an 11-year-old student carried two handguns onto campus and opened fire before committing suicide, said Adelaido Flores, the regional public safety director. Torreon is in the southwestern part of Coahuila, bordering the state of Durango. The weapons are described as a .40 caliber Glock and a .22 caliber pistol.

Lax gun laws in US to blame, blah, blah, blah...

The Guardian: “Despite sufferring some of the world’s highest murder rates, school shootings of the kind that blight the US are relatively rare in Latin America.”

But Latin America tops the list of countries with highest child homicide rates

I guess it’s where children are killed that matters rather than how many are killed?

Two of the students shot and the teacher who died are part of the FIRST Robotics program. The team I mentor sent out a condolence card to the team.

Too many evil people in the world.

No access to guns in the home? Where did he get them from?

Private citizens in Mexico can legally own pistols .380 or less and revolvers .38 Special or less. That Glock .40 was illegal for civilians. Probably stolen or sold illegally by a corrupt cop.

"Coahuila Governor Miguel Angel Riquelme said during a televised news conference that the underage gunman was inspired by a video game and he “tried to recreate it.” "

Translation: "Because the kid is dead this is the excuse we invented to cover up the fact that the kid was probably bullied or something, or had displayed previous f***o
behavior that we knew about but did nothing. "

Yeah, the way they look up to drug lords absolutely had nothing to do with it. Let's find something to blame besides a mirror.

Simply making excuses for their feckless ineffective policies
