Y’know it’s funny, the trump admin will say these are nihilist violent extremists and then turn around and do some nihilist violent extremist action themselves.

    The shooter was killed by somebody the article calls a “good Samaritan”.

    What to know about the shooting

    • Four people were killed, including children, in a shooting today at Silver Rail Elementary School in Bend, Oregon, authorities said.

    • The children were 5, 8 and 11 years old. An adult teacher was also killed.

    • The suspect, who police said was a 16-year-old Bend resident armed with a long gun, gained entrance into the school by shooting through locked doors, officials said.

    • A good Samaritan shot and killed the 16-year-old, according to authorities, who credited that person with preventing further loss.

    • Two other people, a 7-year-old and another teacher, were critically injured.

    • Bend is a city about 3 ½ hours southeast of Portland.

    This shit really gets me fucked up. I work in an elementary school. My kid is in the school I work in. I don’t know how I could keep on going if this happened where I work. It’s just so tragic. Every child and adult in that school will be impacted by this, in so many ways. Just fucking tragic…

      Trivia

      I was curious how many movies in English there were called “Moloch.” I figured there had to be at least 4 or 5. I was wrong. I found one but it doesn’t really count. It came out in 2000 and it’s some kind of no budget non-movie with 14 Imdb ratings.
