Another Planned School Shooting: Everything we have said about the planning, maximizing kills to maximize publicity, and the targeting of the school resource officer is true again here

Jun 19, 2014 | Featured

How many more times do we have to hear the exact same story over and over again before we realize that these killers crave media attention? From the Times News (Kingsport, Tennessee) on June 12th:

. . . According to law enforcement officials, the teens intended to become the most notorious mass murderers of all time, with the highest body count.

They allegedly wanted to be famous, and their road to fame would be paved with the bodies of their classmates and teachers at Volunteer High School in Church Hill.

Authorities say the boys, who are now 16 and 17, even studied the 1999 Columbine school shooting, correcting “mistakes” made by those shooters for the purpose of maximizing the number of student and faculty deaths in their planned Volunteer High School massacre. . . .

The plan included killing the school resource officer first, and outlined where the maximum number of students could be killed — in the lunch room and hallways. . . .

Here is a copy of the story that appeared in the Knoxville News-Sentinel (click to enlarge).

    Why is it when we read or hear about such thoughts and/or intent to kill, the subject never turns to “why a school”? Do the individuals planning for the most heinous moment in their short lives stop themselves and consider the number of laws they’ll be breaking in the process of their mass-execution? Of course not. So why then, does the logic of a “gun-free” zone make such much sense to politicians and gilded parents alike? Why do we deliver our children to hands of physical harm and feel good about it?

    Laws should be written to enforce the fabric of civilization, not to create killing zones so some lunatic can have free access to helpless victims. The “gun-free” zone has proven what many had predicted. Failure to provide security while simultaneously removing the right to self-defense just because you are forced to place your children in government buildings (under penalty of law) makes the government and it’s politically-connected school system culpable in the deaths of hundreds of American children.

    When will your children become ‘victims’?

    It is in holding fast to the word of God that we stand ourselves out as role
    models. The Attorney General Eric Holder says it in this manner:
    . When you’re habitually smoke, the toxins make you
    capillaries shrink therefore much less oxygen goes into your important organs.

So is there really a question of whether Trump reduced crime in DC? Did the Washington Post inaccurately report murder data to make the drop look smaller than it actually is?

The Washington Post doesn't really want to give President Trump credit for the drop in crime in DC. Please look at the graph above and notice that there was a discrete change in August and September 2025 (and the change only started about half way through August on...
