Guns? Are you sure? We have several guns and they've never killed anything. In fact they have never moved or done anything on their own. Now when My husband loaded gun and pulled the trigger after aiming it at a deer, The bullet killed a deer.

But wait, I wonder if it was the person who did it???

This is not reported properly.

How did the child get past the metal detectors?

How is it administration did not act?

Plenty of blame here.

The administration the teacher reported to should be charged.

The kid should be charged.

The parents should be charged because they are responsible for the childs actions.

All the fluff around this is a failure to enforce laws. A systemic failure in government.

Tragic but liberals love these wedge issues to deflect responsibility.

No people with guns kill people, the gun is just an instrument just like a car or knife or rock, don't be ignorant.

Good for her. A shame that it’s necessary, but maybe, if school districts and gun-owning parents start getting sued, maybe those who aren’t taking this seriously will start. It’s ridiculous that the child having access to a gun was already known to the school. He shouldn’t have been allowed back in class.

No, no, thoughts and prayers to the poor gun as it was misused and abused as obviously guns don't kill people 😖

People kill people

The parents and school should be charged for neglect. This is about using the law to strengthen accountability. Justice is not just about fixing what happened - it's about fixing the [i]systems[/i] and failed responsibilities that contributed.

The six year old child should not be charged. People who think so need to perhaps move on from the dark ages or perhaps explain their technical definition of criminal responsibility as it relates to ages and maturity of children and how they came to this conclusion and why this outweighs contemporary research on children's brain development in relationship to comprehending consequences and severity of their actions.

Republicans and the NRA are going to be going into overdrive trying to justify the right to own a firearm with this death.

Not very bloody thirsty at all..

It is a failure of society when a 6 year old takes a gun to school unnoticed! 🙄🙄🙄 The precious child is 6 years old so I am honestly not mad at the poor child as a 6 year old realistically is not old enough to fully understand the seriousness of this however the parents have terrible responsibility if they don't even notice their own child took a gun to school at age 6! 😭😭😭 It is pretty nuts in my opinion! 😭😭😭 If the precious child gets punished for this (at only 6 bless him) then please punish the parents double for being irresponsible! 😤😤😤

Ughhhhh
Here we go again
Hysteria
PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE ..... regardless of age

I wish the gun had never been invented.

a school board meeting has been scheduled to dismiss the superintendent.

i don't think this will limit the district's legal liability, however.

why isn't the school principal being fired too? That's the first line of defense.

No, people kill people

I think the parents should be charged.

Come on how hard is it to ignore a a 6 year old having a gun

And stupid kills people too.

How horrible – also for the parents 😢

The teacher is not dead. Yes from what I understand the school did not want to believe or do anything. So the school might be at some fault.

America needs the stochastic violence to even exist.

The country ignores a whole lot of things.
You're back.
War forever.

The teacher was a lot braver than I would have been. If I knew a student had a gun, ain't no way I'd stay and teach!
To ignore the teacher and allow the student to stay, that's just ignorance and neglect.

"A Virginia teacher who was shot by a six-year-old student during class will sue the school district, the teacher’s attorney announced Wednesday.

Diane Toscano, a lawyer for Abigail Zwerner, said Wednesday that on the day of the shooting, concerned teachers and employees warned administrators three times that the boy had a gun on him and was threatening other students, “but the administration could not be bothered.”

Police Chief Steve Drew has repeatedly characterized the shooting as “intentional,” saying the boy aimed at Zwerner and fired one round, striking her in the hand and chest. Zwerner was hospitalized for nearly two weeks but is now recovering at home, a hospital spokesperson said."

Ignorance, neglect and all that good stuff.... the gun was not locked up and these parents knew the child had an "acute disability" and that gun should never have been able to be accessed.

Don't blame a gun for what others did wrong.
I won't argue this with anyone. I just don't believe this would have happened if people had been doing things right.

In the Uk, children feom 10 years old can be charged as they are considered to be of an age where they can determine right from wrong.

6, however, no.

But, without knowing too much about this, if the teacher has raised a concern, then it should have been addressed, regardless of the age of a child.

[quote]Yea take that lord shadow shithead. Lol[/quote]
Jesus, what are you, 6!?

How in the sweet fuck can the parents be in denial at that level?

@InOtterWords to be fair this kid does sound like one of those little lunatics that had no buisiness being in a regular classroom outside of an asylum based on reports.

Good
