17 year old girl shot,Tennessee, in school bus shooting

Encourage real families.

Abolish indoctrination camps.

Would be a start.

The only way to start abolishing public schooling is for parents to take the role and initiative of homeschooling their kid or getting them into a private school. Parents "can't" homeschool, well some of them can't because of the hours that they work, or maybe both parents work and they have to get a babysitter to pick the kids up from school or something to that kind of example.
Then you've got some parents saying that private school costs too much, etc.

The less kids that go to school = less chances of school shootings.
The less kids in schools = less money that goes to the government for horrid school lunches

schools get paid by number of students present

I wont look at the video, bet the thugs are black.

We should change the spelling for diversity...just add an e

DIEversity.

yeah that too

You would be correct

I gotta do something to help these kids

I urge people to get their words and actions out there. No more youth deserve to die.

nobody has anything else to say?

No surprise here-TNB. From OP's link:

Three of the suspects have been identified as 18-year-old T. Darrius Perry and brothers Deandre Northcut, 18, and Marquis Northcut, 20.

For those of you not in the US; only black people come up with these kinds of names.

so are they trying to spark racial violence or promote their anti gun laws? or all of the above?
Either way they're messing with kids more and more these days which is where I draw the line.

Nikkas get shot everyday B.

okay? Well when they decide to shoot someone of who is a Youth that is when I draw the line. They get shot every day protecting what? "Turf". Oh you're standing somewhere I claim as my land blah blah blah. Oh you come from a different background, yada yada yada so that's an excuse to shoot a Youth? When are people gonna realize they need to stop making excuses and take responsibility where responsibility is due. Shooting Youth, innocent Youth. Defenseless youth. I don't care what your background is or what someone believes is their "turf" I don't care who anyone is when they mess with the Youth because that means they're all messin' with me.

Why the hell can't I find anything in the news?

Alright I found articles but nothing updating with anything new.

Some of these cities are awful. It sounds like something that could happen here in Clayton County (Atlanta Area).

show em where they should be pointing their guns

It's a bad neighborhood. Nashville is a great place, but every town has it's bad spots and that Pearl Cohn Highschool area is definitely one of them. When I was in school (way back in the 80's), our band would not go to the football game over there because it was too rough. The only time we did go, some instruments got smashed. I can only imagine what it's like now 20+ years later.

Thanks for the link, I'm glad everyone is okay.

Yeah every town does have bad spots. From what I understand the 18 year old boy whom the suspects assaulted, my understanding is that they didn't know the boy (although they must have if they were just targeting him) which then makes me wonder..."why the heck shoot up a school bus!? Yeah you want one guy, be a man and quit hiding behind a gun." shooting at kids does not make some more gang-ster or hardcore (they're high school aged so I still consider that Youth)
Sorry to hear about the band instruments getting smashed.. and I'm sure years later it's gotten worse there.

Absolutely correct here Pearl Cohn is in a bad, bad neighborhood in an otherwise good city. This is so freaking sad AND scary. What about the bus driver? They were shooting into the bus! I bet he or she was about to have a heart attack. One of my drivers quit driving for Metro because he had a Pearl Cohn route and was always getting threatened...sometimes with guns. Sad, sad. Just now on the news they said NPD is calling it gang-related, but that the victim says she doesn't know the suspects.

shooters were federal wetworks chaos ops

I thought the 18-year old was a boy, but the 17-year old girl got caught by the crossfire?

I don't know if either knew the shooters, and I still don't care, point is they shot at a bus with Youth in it....sickening...

Two major gangs I am aware of in Nashville are Brown Pride and MS13. They even made a national TV show about it once. Several years ago those two gangs were going at each other pretty big. I have no clue whether or not those groups are involved, but then again, there were no gangs that I was aware of in Nashville when I was a kid.

So...2 shootings happen on a school campus (yes the parking lot is still the campus, regardless of what a reporter says) in one week. What are they trying to tell us?

Keep your kids out of these horrible institutions.

Just thugs that need to be taken off the street.

^ bingo. Home. School.
