Book ,'Serenity'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
As for bump stocks, unfortunately there really isn't much Congress can do to stop bump firing...you can bump fire with any kind of stock.
But a purpose-built bump stock allows maintaining a higher rate of fire with more accuracy, up to 800 rounds per minute.
Oh man, now there are reports of numerous fatalities starting to trickle out. It's so awful. Those young lives being snuffed out. I know there are even more horrific things happening elsewhere in the world, but being a parent of teenagers here in the U.S. this is hitting hard.
That news was playing on the TV in the breakroom while I had lunch. So terrible.
Apparently they are transporting the shooter to the hospital. DH is coaching a regional basketball game tonight and that school is on his schedule. It is hard to watch the news because the reporting is all speculation and 'experts' and it just annoys rather than informs.
The local TV station website crashed. The channel we all go to during hurricanes! I've never seen them go down.
Yeah, DH just got a call that all the Broward county basketball games are canceled. His game is still tonight because he is in Palm Beach.
My cousin just posted that her coworker's kid was hiding in a closet from the shooter today.
The school is close to Coral Springs High where DH graduated. We know quite a few people in the area. One of DH's fellow coach's daughter goes there.
Yes, sj, it sounds like the protocol was for the kids to go into the closets. I can't even imagine.
Timelies all!
Trying to type with my left hand because Mr. S was on my lap, holding my hand. Cats and toddlers have a lot in common it seems.
17 dead.
I'm one of those liberals that does want to take all of their guns and ammunition away.
I don't even give a fuck about sensible gun laws anymore. I don't care about hunting. And I don't give a shit about recreational shooting.
This is the American recreation - gun massacre.
Other countries have quite sanely taken the guns out of the hands of the average citizenry.
Our country is fucking insane.
17 - I wish I had gone with DH tonight. The kids and parents are going to be a mess.
