"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Huffpo says:

Unconfirmed reports say that principal Dawn Hochsprung and a school psychologist were killed, according to a parent who claimed to witness part of the attack, CNN reported.

CBS reports that a student's father was the shooter.

Because books.

I used to roll my eyes that the front door to Sara's school is locked -- you have to be buzzed in. Now, that's just fine with me.

Well thanks for that Hec. I have not seen CBS mentioned that part. Good grief.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

CNN is saying 10 kids when I just checked it. (CNN also thinks I'm in China -- seriously. So maybe I'm getting an international version?)

There is also an incident in China, a knife attack in which a lot of children were hurt or killed, so that is probably causing more confusion.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

WTF? People suck. How could a PARENT do that to someone else and not have been recognized as bugfuck crazy prior?

Was the father the dead shooter or the one that is allegedly caught?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It looks like 27 dead, 18 children, all under ten.

One shooter in custody, and I think the other is dead.

One person reported one hundred rounds going off. An entire classroom was missing, so I think that's where the casualties were concentrated. Sounds like he slaughtered an entire classroom and ran out of the school into the woods behind the school. Several of the adults who were killed were teachers and staff running towards the gunfire trying to stop the shooters.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

CNN: "One shooter is 24 years old wearing a bullet proof vest and holding 4 weapons."

So it was premeditated.
