    The headline is not untrue, but I think a lot of people are making school shooting assumptions based on “mass shooting” that would probably be avoidable with a change in phrasing.

    One adult man shot his wife and presumed girlfriend, killed seven of their own children, plus an eighth who was visiting, and then booked it. It’s a horrific crime to commit and I can’t understand how a person can do something like that.

      Domestic Violence are the new School Shootings for the news media. Nancy Grace and Paula Zahn are hot on the case!

      I don’t get it but also this is how a lot of mass killings played out historically. Hell my own ancestor pruned the old branches on the tree as it were before he became a bandit.
