Gunshots were fired on the visitor’s side of the stadium at Choctaw High School during the third quarter of their game against Del City High School on Friday. At least four other people sustained injuries as a result of the incident, according to police.

This pisses me off. I live in Oklahoma and my son is 16 and part of his class assignment is attend live events like a football game but now it could be to dangerous. Sick of this. And Republicans will never change.

Fuck whoever that teacher is so hard for making kids to go after school activities for a grade. That’s should 100% be a choice. My daughter has major anxiety issues and going to school events, or any events with large crowds is unbearable for her. She had trouble with a lunchtime party we went to recently with 10-20 people. I would read that teacher the fucking riot act.
Its for an elective class my son chose it podcast class. I too was pissed when says I got to take him to live events and pay for it all.
I assume by “podcast class” It’s a reporting class, but that term is mostly dead now I guess. In that case, it’s somewhat fair but the rule should just be to make a report on an event in general. (Making a report on this shooting would probably be a good one ironically.) It shouldn’t have to be a school event or really anything in particular. Ideally it’d also require doing research, like a reporter should, and not just reacting to what they see.

What the fuck is wrong with you? It’s mental illness. Do you tell schizophrenics to man up and stop hearing voices?
Yes, because this ‘person’ is a fucking idiot. Just move on. They don’t deserve your time.
I’m not going to say anything else, but I couldn’t let that shit go without saying something.
Fair enough as long as it did you some good to get it out.
Because there is no chance it’s going to impact this broken idiot in any way.
You come off as someone who watches Jordan Peterson bits to make you feel better about your inceldom.
Your parents should have raised a smarter, more empethetic, more emotionally healthy child.
Good point. I’ll try harder to raise my kids to be more bulletproof.
They accomplished their goals, they just lied about what their goals were.
They’re paid $16 million a year (and millions of single-issue voters who will tolerate absolutely anything as long as they have their guns) to protect the profits of gun companies, and they’ve absolutely accomplished that.
This child was just another person they don’t give a shit about who had to suffer the consequences.
There were seven cops there and they still didn’t catch the shooter? Wtf

But the good guys with guns could’ve stopped them! 🥺🥺🥺

So if I understand correctly we can’t blame cops when they shoot somebody, we can’t blame cops when somebody else shoots somebody right in front of them, and we can’t blame cops for not shooting white supremacist assholes.
What exactly can they be held accountable for in your fucked up system of thought?
The only “bad” thing cops can do is not take the side of other cops at all times.

Not the cops fault, but proof more cops didn’t equate to more safety like cops and Republicans want you to think

The only logical solution is even more guns.
US society has made a collective decision concerning freedom and gun ownership and this is the outcome they’ll have to (continue to) live with.
I think most of society wants some protections in place. It’s the politicians (and Supreme Court justices if you somehow think they aren’t politicians still) that keep us from getting that. They would risk too much going against the “no safety precautions for firearms” groups, so they just don’t.
I ate lunch with some friends today who had a student that attended the game. Luckily they are ok.
Anyone else think the title makes it sound like the 16yo was shooting at the players, then inexplicably died?
I put a pause in my head after “shooting” but I’d understand whyd ya think that
American children who experience gun violence at school finds that they have higher rates of school absenteeism, lower high school and college graduation rates
Imagine being asked to play on this field after this. This school may never win a game again. What absolute bullshit that a stranger in a crowd can threaten the lives and outcomes of our teens.
