School Shooting in Portsmouth, OH
« on: February 07, 2008, 07:18:49 AM »
Many of you may have heard, there has been a shooting at an elementary school in Portsmouth, OH this morning.  You can read about it here:

www.wsaz.com

A teacher was shot and stabbed in her classroom by an outside person suspected of domestic dispute with this teacher.  He also shot a second person elsewhere in the city and then barricaded himself in his house.  The police have him surrounded and are awaiting a swat team.  This was the last update I heard.  I'm sure more will come of the story soon.

This is about a half hour from where I live.  I'm sure we'll be hearing about gun control soon...

So much for the effectiveness of gun free school zones by law.  Didn't seem to work in this case or any others that I know.  Just another excuse to limit firearms possession.
