It Happened Again

A list of some fatal shootings at U.S. schools in recent years:

-- Oct. 2, 2006: A gunman took about a dozen girls hostage, killing at least three of them, at a one-room Amish schoolhouse in Pennsylvania's Lancaster County, police said. The shooter was among the dead, and a number of people were injured.
-- Sept. 29, 2006: 15-year-old Eric Hainstock brought two guns to a school in rural Cazenovia, Wis., and fatally shot the principal, a day after the principal gave him a disciplinary warning for having tobacco on school grounds, police said.
-- Sept. 27, 2006: Duane Morrison, 53, took six girls hostage at Platte Canyon High School in Bailey, Colo. Morrison, sexually assaulting them and using them as human shields for hours before fatally shooting one girl and killing himself.
-- Aug. 24, 2006: Christopher Williams, 27, went to an elementary school in Essex, Vermont, looking for his ex-girlfriend, a teacher. He couldn't find her and fatally shot one teacher and wounded another, police said. Williams also killed his ex-girlfriend's mother, according to authorities. He shot himself twice in the head after the rampage and was arrested.

Thats right four have happend in the past 2 months, this spike is almost amazing.... what's next, why so many in a row.

Violence in america is amazing. Watch the Histroy of Violence for a good example.

oh and bishop publish my blog!

Day that never happened.

Yesterday's plans were to get dressed get a ride from some friends then go to the Homestead Homecoming Dance... that never happened.

2pm recieve phone call from some of my ski crew down in Milwaukee, so I roll down to there, basically roaming the northside with no plan in mind, it was fun and mellow and i got some sick shots on my camera, (below)





After that we went urban scouting out in the west suburbs, filled up the jetta with snow, and hit some hand rails, unfortunately my camera battery was beat and decided not to work for this well... not so epic session, but still the first exposure to skiing in wisconsin this fall. Ya...

Anyways, back to all these High School attacks, it was reported that a man with a gun broke into a Vermont school, looking for his ex-girlfriend (a teacher). So far in the school year (since aug 1) across america there have already been 17 non fatal school shootings ( compared to 54 in TOTAL last school year). It will be intresting to see the reaction of my school especially since we all live in the same state as two of the four threats/attacks.
