          15 miles from Columbine.

          New York Times report.

          At least one student was injured Friday after a gunman opened fired in a suburban Denver high school, the authorities said.

          The gunman, who was also a student at the school, Arapahoe High in Centennial, was found dead inside the school, apparently of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Sheriff Grayson Robinson said at a news conference.

          The student had been targeting a specific teacher who managed to escape, Sheriff Robinson said. The authorities were in contact with the suspect’s family.

                The snarky comments either approving this or saying that they understood the impulse were pretty depressing.

                    yeah, Inca, I think we have to take it as given that reading local news website comments is the quickest way to destroy any faith you might have in humanity.

                        There have been 18 school days so far this year.

                        And nine school shootings in the US.

                                  But incidents of this type at an army base aren't really comparable to civilian shootings are they?

                                            I think that belongs in the WTF thread. The most charitable interpretation is that they were trying to make it resemble a blood splatter.

                                                It's almost as if they want you to think that gun deaths fell sharply after the enaction of that repulsive law.

                                                  Wow, it took me a while to figure out what they did there.

                                                    I just thought it was because it had a "false floor" on one of the axes.

                                                    (And does say 1,000s next to the date axis, doesn't it?)
