    A 15-year-old boy opened fire with a handgun in his high school in western Kentucky on Tuesday, killing two fellow students and wounding a dozen other youths before being arrested, the state’s governor and police said.
    The shooting began shortly before 8 a.m. CST (1400 GMT) at Marshall County High School in Benton, a small town about 130 miles (210 km) northwest of Nashville, Tennessee, according to Kentucky State Police and Governor Matt Bevin.

    Hawaii time to Kentucky time is 5 hours behind...

    4:00 AM Hawaiian time would have been 9 AM Kentucky time...

    Why is a clip of 'why turkey is fighting Surds in Syria' on the page of a Kentucky Highschool being 'shot'?

    Is The Middle East trying to take over U.S. news Waves and Communications? Or are they asking for assistance from whoever is seeing these pages? They need to contact The White House Administration to request for help.

    IF,, only IF.. they are able to hack into U.S. news online, I'm sure they can get an urgent message sent to The White House through the same computer ways if they desired.. If the situation in Syria is urgent, I would think they would be breaking into Administrations to request for help rather than public web pages..

    But think of it this way...

    Even if any of them are here... They are here on U.S. soil... They cannot swim across the Pacific or Atlantic or take a ferry boat...

    The only way for anybody to leave the U.S. is by Air Plane...

    And do not allow for them, if they are here, to use The Name of Allah against you... Rebuke their silly asses if they do... God does not condone Murder...

    They are using The Name of God for murder? You don't need to be a Christian to put them in their rightful places...

    Unless you don't care of who's who or what's going on...

    Being 'legal' is the best and safest way... Stay legal....

    I'm sure the Government will come around sooner or later...

    And yes... for anyone to form an ill Name towards God is dangerous to those that are...

    Galatians 6:7
    "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."

    "Do not err; God is not put to shame, for anything that a man sows he reaps." ABIPL

    Terrible. Now let's charge this kid as an adult and keep him locked away forever. Condolences to the families of the victims as well as the murdering kid's parents because today they also lost a son.

    We don't know that yet. If they were ghetto trash then I'd agree with you. But if the kid had a good family and just went off the rails then things in my mind are different. I believe the Unabomber had a good upbringing and had a pretty good life, then he lost it and it had nothing to do with his upbringing.

    I guess we'll find out more about this kid's upbringing as the story unwinds.

    This is horrible. It really makes you wanna pull your own kids out of school. I have a 15 year old and two more right around the corner from being in High School. I worry about this all the time. Like Steve said, charge this dick wad as an adult and make sure he never sees the light of day again. In the meantime we'll hear about how was picked on for being weird and couldn't handle it anymore. Everybody has been picked on as a kid, I don't understand how we were able to move past it but kids today can't. What gives...

    Maybe people are right about evolution and humans are beginning to evolve into emotional patsies.

    Ask what Syria would do.. Ask what Iraq would do... Ask what any Arab Country would do with a highschool being shot at...

    Ask what Syria would do.. Ask what Iraq would do... Ask what any Arab Country would do with their 'illegal immigrants'..


    I can't stress how important it is to not think and reason with a 'meth' induced mind...

    It's funny how we're all conditioned to think because the first thing I thought of was white trash with meth like you did. Had this been in Chicago I would have thought other things.

    I only clicked on one of the links, was the kid an illegal?

    It's a shame and I just can't figure it out.

    It looks like Generation Z aka the Centennials Generation are following in Millennials Generation foot steps.

    Another generation of snowflakes to deal with.

    I'm going to bet that some 15 year old boy got butt hurt over something really stupid.

    My first thought was a picked on white kid either on pain or speed pills... Leaned more towards pain though because on speed, his focus would have been more precise and he likely would have taken more lives.

    I was really hoping they'd see how ignorant the Millennials acted and want to be anything BUT that. There's still hope though. Every generation has their emos.

    Millennials are World Wide.. Not only in The U.S...

    Anybody born after the year 1980 and forward are considered Millennials.. From 1980 to mid 1990's to early 2000's. Not only for U.S. citizens but for anybody world wide...

    That's just it. You don't 'just lose it' unless something has gone wrong in your upbringing. And the evidence of the poor parenting is this result. There is no other cause.

    Just to clarify ... there is no way we can know a family is good, apart from its fruit (children are the evidence for the health of a family). Married and well-to-do parents doesn't equate to mental health in all cases. Sometimes Mommy is a little nuts. Sometimes Daddy is. Sometimes both are.

    This child is the evidence of their failure.

    Kids that got picked on in school before the internet could at least get away from it for the day when they went home.

    Nowadays, it follows you 24-7 for the whole world to see online.

    Only if they're allowed or enabled by parents to spend unlimited unsupervised time on social media.

    What I mean by that is kids can now take some embarrassing photo or put a post on the internet and every kid in the school will know what happened, and it's always there to haunt them.
