New school shooting in Pittsburg

[bersaguy]

Fox just reported a school shooting just minutes ago.

And as per usual the media hasn't made up their minds yet on just how they want this one to go. Conflicting reports that the shooting happened NEAR the school and AT the school.

I'll let them figure it out before commencing my "give a f*ck" process. Not withstanding of course condolences to the families affected.

[Oh Shoot]

This all sounds fairly reasonable reporting, excepting the last sentence maybe:

 

"Three people were shot near Brashear High School in Pittsburgh this afternoon, according to ABC News affiliate WTAE. No one is in custody and there is a search for the shooter, according to the Pittsburgh mayor's office. SWAT team members and armored vehicles responded to the school and surrounding neighborhood.

 

Pittsburgh school district spokeswoman Ebony Pugh told ABC News that three students were shot as they walked to a vehicle they'd all taken to school earlier in the day. Their injuries appear to be non-life-threatening, she said.

 

Two students were grazed in the head and one was shot in both the foot and arm, she said.

 

Pugh said the victims were not on school property but close by, the mayor's office said.

 

Allegheny Hospital confirmed they are treating one male patient who was in stable condition.

 

Brashear is Pittsburgh Public Schools' largest high school by enrollment with 1,416 students. A portion of the same building houses South Hills Middle School, which has 580 students, according to the Pittsburgh Post Gazette.

 

The incident is the latest in a string of shootings in recent weeks, including at a New Jersey mall, Los Angeles airport, the Navy Yard in Washington, D.C., and Sparks Middle School in Sparks, Nevada.

 

This is a developing story. Check back to ABC News for more updates."

 Still has some spin. There's a string of shootings in Chicago every day, probably by folks wearing the same tatoos.

Lock down the city! Looks like another gang shooting.

Don't know if we should really bother caring anymore. Feces happens.

[Mike.357]

I will flat out admit it,  I don't care.

I will flat out admit it,  I don't care.

I'm at the point of not caring anymore either!

Most folks are beginning to develop the same thoughts I have on these shootings. They are becoming more frequent because the economy is driving some to just do it for meanness and others are just plain stupid. Like someone mentioned it is becoming about as news worthy as Chicago shootings.  A buddy of mine that still is stupid enough to live up there told me that the shootings don't even make front page anymore but are on 3rd or 4th page of Chicago news papers now and a lot of them don't even make TV news at all any more.

Bersaguy, the economy has nothing to do with it.

You may very well be right about that now that I think about it............... :up: :up:

Here is the gun control policy that will cut gun crime down by 75%

If you support obama, then you should have an open warrant for property searches. Seems like obama voters are the issue with gun violence
