One male victim was apparently located almost a mile away at a convenience store. He is hospitalized with life threatening injuries after being shot in the back more than once. The weapon, possibly a .45 caliber handgun, was reportedly found in the center of Church Street, in front of the high school. There is no connection between this incident and the school known at this time. Police are currently looking for the gunman, and the investigation continues.

When I was a child some of the children would imitate "The Three Stooges" and "Our Gang". They would poke each other in the eyes with two fingers and hit each other over the head in the exact same way as they saw it on these shows which by today's standard would be considered mild. Child see--child do. The principal had an open meeting with the parents about not allowing their children to watch things they may imitate. Now, you have so much violence and superficial sex on television and in the movies, for young people who do are not raised right (most) it does not surprise me that there is so much gun and other violence among the young. These kind of young people who obviously not pro-life are a perfect argument for abortion.
