    I can't be the only one out here, I'm just not. Don't worry about it. Mind your fucking business.

    A former student went on a shooting rampage at a Florida high school on Wednesday, leaving 17 dead while panicked students barricaded themselves inside classrooms and frantic parents raced to the scene.

    The gunman, who was expelled, was identified as 19-year-old Nikolaus Cruz. Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel said Cruz was armed with ?countless? magazines and an AR-15 rifle.

    Cruz was taken into custody miles from the school nearly two hours after the shooting started.

    Flanked by officers, the suspect was escorted into a police station wearing a hospital gown.

    "This is catastrophic," Israel said. "There are really no words."

    The shooting happened about 2 p.m. at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., which is about 30 miles northwest of Fort Lauderdale, according to the Coral Springs Police Department.

    Students said chaos ensued when a fire alarm sounded in the school near dismissal time? then the gunfire started. Israel said Cruz started shooting outside then made his way through the school's hallways.

    Television footage showed the terrifying moments outside the school. Students ran single file from the building with their hands in the air ? throwing backpacks into a large pile and huddling under trees across the street.

    As students scrambled to safety, law enforcers with weapons drawn approached the building.


    The gunman was expelled from the school for ?disciplinary reasons? but Israel didn?t elaborate.

    Cameras captured authorities taking Cruz into custody and to a local hospital. Police described the gunman as someone who possibly attended the school and was a member of the JROTC program. Authorities said he was wearing a hoodie and has red hair.


    Some students and teachers who fled the school told reporters they knew the former student and that he had guns.

    As friends hiding from the shooter sent photos and videos over Snapchat to 19-year-old Jillian Davis, she started to recognize the suspect as a former classmate who had a history of making dark, gun-related jokes.

    Cruz, a classmate who participated in Davis?s ninth grade JROTC group, was usually a quiet kid who kept to himself, but ?there was a lot of anger management issues there,? Davis said.

    ?Finding put it was him makes a lot of sense now,? she said.

    Cruz would joke about shooting people or shooting up establishments, she added. At the time, she thought it was normal, violent teenage jokes. Cruz would also talk a lot about having guns and using them in different situations, she said.

    Math teacher Jim Gard told the Herald he taught the suspect last year, who he said was troubled.

    "We were told last year that he wasn?t allowed on campus with a backpack on him,? Gard told the newspaper. ?There were problems with him last year threatening students, and I guess he was asked to leave campus.?

    Broward County Public Schools Superintendent Robert Runcie said it was a dark day in the county's history.

    "It's a horrific situation. It's just a horrible day for us," he said. "...This is a day we prayed would never happen in our county."

    He said every high school in the county has a police presence, adding there are typically two officers at every school.

    Dalila Ladero, 16, of Coral Springs, Fla. stands near friends after being reunited with her mother at University Drive and Holmberg Road in Parkland. "When all that happened, I wasn't in my class, I just started following people...I was just seeing everyone screaming and crying and I didn't know what was happening," she said. "I was calm, I just started praying." XAVIER MASCARE„AS, Treasure Coast Newspapers via USA

    Worried parents crowded around the the school, some asking television crews what they should do to get information on their child, and students cried when they were reunited with their mothers and fathers. Some of the injured were treated on sidewalks and loaded into ambulances.

    Twelve of the victims were found inside the school, two were killed outside and two others died in the hospital. One additional person was killed off the school's campus, Israel said.

    Melissa Falkowski, a teacher at the school, told CNN she hid with her students in a closet until law enforcement cleared them. Footage on local television stations showed SWAT officers entering a classroom with guns drawn and students shaking and crying as they held up their hands.

    The White House released a statement as the tragedy was unfolding.

    "The president has been made aware of the school shooting in Florida," deputy press secretary Lindsay Walters said. "We are monitoring the situation. Our thoughts and prayers are with those affected."

    The incident comes just weeks after a rampage at a rural Kentucky high school. A 15-year-old faces two counts of murder and 12 counts of first-degree assault after police said he killed two and wounded more than a dozen others in a shooting spree at Marshall County High School in Benton.

    There have been at least six school shootings in 2018.

    Too bad he didn't do this in the halls of Congress.

    Bad form? Fuck you.

    Children are dead, just like they were after Newtown, and nothing at all will be done. Not a goddamn thing. Why? Because, bottom line is that your legislators don't give a shit. They forget the whole "life, liberty and pursuit of happiness" line that applies to everyone and cling to the one line that says "the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed". Never mind that children die, that doesn't really matter! All we care about is our gunnzzzz!!!

    I'm a gun owner, I'm just not a giant pussy who has to be strapped like Rambo to go to Wal Mart. I don't carry at all, because I don't feel threatened and know very well how to handle myself.

    But there's a population of this country that is mentally ill enough to believe that the Boogeyman is just around every corner waiting to kill him for his $5.00 belt buckle and the keys to his F150.

    This was a problem kid. A problem kid with a gun obsession. Whether he developed that at home from mom and dad or watched one too many episodes of The A-Team remains to be seen.

    One thing I know:

    This has very little to do with guns, per se, and everything to do with the availability of these weapons getting into the hands of the mentally deranged, like this little prick.

    But any time legislation is proposed to keep the mentally ill from getting their hands on guns, some dumbass gun loving fucknugget gets his panties in a twist and the legislation dies before it is even read through completely.

    The last administration tried, but because this country is full of dipshits who can't read and or do higher math, let alone secure jobs that require more brainpower than brawn, gun laws have become less strict than they were just a few years ago.

    Now another bunch of kids are dead. And it will never end until those legislators pull their fucking heads out of their ass - or someone shoots all of them, to get the message across.

    A gun by itself is not dangerous. A gun in the hands of an asshole with an agenda is the most dangerous common threat there is.

    Don't like what I have to say? I respect that. Go fuck yourself.

    According to data from the Gun Violence Archive, a total of 30 mass shooting incidents have occurred as of February 14, 2018 in the U.S. There's only been 45 days in 2018.

    But hey, thoughts and prayers will solve it.

    They said on Rachel Maddow that he had non life threatening injuries, so they took him to the hospital after arresting him.

    And when NOTHING was done after Newtown, it kind of made me go numb.
    Kind of.
    Shock, anger, pain, numb. I mean, those kids were what- first graders? Or thereabouts.
    If nothing was done when LITTLE KIDS were shot & killed like fish in a barrel, what are the odds that this country will pass legislation to protect ANYONE from a maniac with a gun (or guns) & a sick mind?

    Maybe they gave him the gown for a clean change of clothes.

    Man, when I heard about this my first thought was "oh well." Of course I don't mean oh well, and this situation is terribly sad, but I'm just burnt out on emotional responses to shit like this. Like, I'm not the one who is consistently barring changes to the law that would prevent it or promoting toxic masculinity or refusing affordable mental healthcare. I'm just one person and feel completely stuck and unable to do anything about it. This is just reality and it's never going to change in this shithole country. This is me feeling defeated.

    CNN was just saying that he got away by blending in with a group of kids. Looks like the choice of shirt was part of that plan.
