Joe Doakes from Como Park emails:
Another school, another shooting, more people dead, this time in Sweden where a young man wearing a Star Wars mask attacked a school.
No, the killer didn’t do the shooting. The killer was stopped by a good guy with a gun. Who shot him. In a school.
And stopped him from killing more children. By shooting him. In a school.
So does that make this the Good Kind of School Shooting?
Joe Doakes
No. It makes it the kind of shooting you never hear about in the American media – shootings like these – that interrupt the narrative that “gun violence” is out of control.
