Just teasing you mainly. But private schools are typically for the elite and for the religious. Im a fan of neither.

most private school educations are no better than public school. Teachers at private schools tend to actually get paid less than public schools, believe it or not.

I understand that, I think honestly I was blessed with good teachers who gave me good basics. And looking back, I do feel that the comma and proper grammar issue likely existed in the private school, just wasnt as pronounced back then.

I will say that high school doesnt in anyway truly prepare you as much as it could for college. That was a wake up call. Wonderful time, wonderful teachers and experiences, you better time manage or it going murder you though.

I grew up and went to a private Christian school my first ten years and then public for the last two. I was completely dumbfounded by how few juniors and seniors couldnt use a comma* correctly (mindful I was writing at the time and involved in text based RPs so I got constant practice, so maybe unfair skill levels).

i felt bored those last two years though and burnt out, only classes I enjoyed were web mastery and helping work on the school website, and my A&P. Economics gave me far more issues than it should have, I blame the burnout on that cause it wasnt hard, just had do a 2nd try of it.

mad for my math, my algebra one got screwed over bad due to bad teachers so trying for algebra 2 actually forced me to take a in between class junior year, then algebra 2 senior which my teacher saw my effort and me helping other students that I got a skip on the final even though I was a point short.

But he was thwarted by being in a mental hospital. Too bad they probably also sold him the gun like really " Oh your mentally incapable to get a silencer but her take this assault rifle!". Fuckin America man, I swear.

he didnt get the rifle there, the people in the store caught it when he wrote it on the application he was in a mental hospital.

It possible he went to a different location and omitted that detail, not sure it would have shown with a background check.

as for the comment of the shooters incident being an acute mental episode when he voluntary went in,

I have no proof, but wish to call bullshit. It was going on much longer than he reported most likely, but showing signs of mental illness would be a black mark to these kind of people. he should gotten better help and likely sooner.

He likely has stashs set up to wait out the heat from this, as it felt roughly planned out based on how he gotten away so far. add in military training so even if they find him, hes not going surrender likely, instead a fire fight with more injuries or deaths.

also good on golden to look at the assault rifle ban again. We are needing gun control laws to stem the amount of shootings in the long term. I also do want to see mental health be taken more serious, as I feel both are major factors here.

so, lets remove the non starter of abolishing the 2nd cause that is never going happen.

Instead put in a federal gun license, use the license to carry programs as your baseline with multi hour mandatory safety training. All previous LTC owners are grandfathered in, and the license is required to purchase and own firearms.

Also, no using a panel to determine if I need a gun, its still a personnel choice, but one I train and practice to keep.

from there, you start looking at removing the stigma from mental health, and adding stronger red flag laws.

https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israel-tells-gazans-move-south-or-risk-being-seen-terrorist-partner-2023-10-22/

A loooot of innocents are going to die. And I'm curious of one thing... So surely the IDF doesn't actually think that southern Gaza doesn't have any Hamas who evacuated there, right? The IDF wants to exterminate ALL of Hamas. That has been their main claim. What happens when they kill everyone in the north and then need to attack the south to get rid of the Hamas members that will 100% have moved there? Tell the Palestinians to evacuate to the north? Okay, where will they stay then if the north would already be a wasteland?

EDIT: Also on CNN right now "1,900+ Palestinian children dead. Parents writing the names of the children on the children's legs in black marker so they can be identified if/when killed

the thing is, it is impossible to completely exterminate Hamas cause its an idea. Its not a country you can wipe off the map, its just a group of people following a group idea, and sadly its going grow as a result of this.

the other sad part is how many civilians are being hurt in the cross fire, but there is no good way to fight this battle, outside preventing it will politics.
