There seems to be a huge chunk of back story missing here.

None of which we'll get since it likely doesn't help the "Active White Supremacist Shooter" narrative that the Leftists and their running dog lackeys in the media lover so much.

If black lives matter maybe someone should tell them! I lived in inner city Detroit in the early 70's as a young white kid but never had any issues with any of the black folks! The ones I knew were hard working folks and very friendly to this white kid. Hitchhiked around the city to various events never had an issue! Now times have changed thanks to these politically motivated scumbag liberals!! They are the true racists and hopefully it will come to view soon. There were gangs back then but different and a lot less violent. Being soft on crime and legalizing drugs has created a nightmare! Nuff said!

I wish I could live in fantasy land like they do.

Like most schools, they never had a shooting until they did. And will likely never have one again.

An otherwise perfect student, never bullied or abused? Loving family and no signs or symptoms observed by teachers, administrators and medical professionals? Must be guns then...

I'm sure they'll move back to adjacent parks, etc. forthwith;
all the places where students from that school used to bust a cap.

I have a friend who is a vice principal in a HS outside of Baltimore. Gang members openly roam the halls all day long.

Your friend is derelict in their duty to end that.......even if they are students there.
