It may be a student who didn't get his way in class or felt picked on.

reminds me of the Columbine shooters.

Platte Canyon High School is located 46 miles southwest of Denver on Highway 285, near the Jefferson County/Park County line. It has about 467 students enrolled and was built in 1958 with an addition built in 2000, according to information posted on the school's web site.

I heard the situation is over. I also heard the gunman is dead and at least one student is in bad condition.

Nothing about it is on the news right now though.

Its over. The SWAT Team stormed the room and two people are dead. The hostage taker and one hostage. Shot by SWAT I suspect. An investigation of the deaths is in progress but by what I saw of the Park county sheriff's news conference the man knows that his officers fired the fatal shots on both people.

The current story is that the SWAT Team stormed, (no other hosages had been harmed) the hostage was shot and then the SWAT Team shot the hostage taker. I've seen SWAT tactics and the time line is more like, the SWAT Team stormed, fired their weapons and two people died.

I don't trust the police!!!

SWAT didn't do anything....the terrorist shot the hostage and then himself.

The girl was taken to the hospital and pronounced dead after they failed to resuscitate her.

I wonder if he planned it or it was a spur of the moment thing.

What. The. Hell?

There's one in Pennsylvania, and another in Vegas. The Vegas one got shut down before anyone got shot, or so that's the story thus far.

Back in my day, the Jocks and the Nerds weren't this outright hostile. Granted, I didn't really interact with the Jocks that much, but I didn't really hear about any open warfare between the social groups.



I pity the fool who flys his American flag upside-down, underneath a Jolly Roger.
