A 16-year-old shooter opened fire at an elementary school in Bend, Oregon, on Thursday, killing three children and a teacher before he was shot dead by a community member, authorities said at an evening news conference.

The dead children at Silver Rail elementary school were aged five, eight and 11, officials said.

    Are you fishing for your cherry picked case that proves the premise you wanted in spite of the overwhelming evidence that contradicts it?

        What about the hundreds of times that hasn’t happened? Or what about, if the “bad guy” didn’t have a gun 4 people wouldn’t be dead to begin with?

        This narrative of “good guy with a gun” is so unbelievably rare, that when it happens, it’s actually noteworthy. You and your ilk love to hold it up to further your agenda. Neverminding the stacks and piles of bodies you’re stepping over to get to one example of “good guy with a gun”.

          My ilk? Leftist gun owners? The solution you’re proposing is nobody has a gun. The genuine reality is, that’s never going to be the case in America.

            I said ilk, I meant it.

            Leftist can be gun owners, no problem with that, the problem is you’re not a leftist. You’re just a larper troll.
