Sick.

Nabb1		2012-01-11 05:50:44 PM

Thankfully it appears they got all the students and faculty/staff out safely.

Dude would have been dead meat if he tried to hide in one of the high schools.

Exactly. "shiat, the kids have guns too!"

Wow, I understand why they might be a bit distraught, but the LSU fans are really going off the deep end, aren't they.

Speaking of which, apparently the LSU football team is stuck in New Orleans right now. Someone painted a 50-yard line in front of the team bus.

FTA: "Parents with questions should call ..."

I think that if I heard that there was an armed man in my child's school, I'd have a lot more than questions.

Almost a perfect joke but they made it past the 50 1 once.

Article is kind of pointless to go green ~ 5:30 pm central time.

Good thing elementary schools generally don't hold classes at 5:30 pm

People still live in New Orleans?

Congratulations, Mr. Gunman. You just added another decade onto your prison sentence.

They aren't criminals because they're smart.

Then promptly stirred into pasta and served as "Meatball Surprise".

It's New Orleans, he can't do too much damage.

Why don't we just drop a bomb on the school to eliminate the gunman, it's what we do in Iraq?

If the body count is less than 20 I don't even tell my co-workers.

No. Definitely don't come here. Seriously, its an awful place. The whole thing is underwater, and there's not a Starbucks in sight.

Its definitely best you stay in Iowa or wherever the fark.

A sack and a fumble later, they were back behind the 50.

Jesus, how glad am I that I had an important hearing Tuesday morning and didn't watch that abortion.

I was pretty bummed out to be missing out, but wow. Talk about dumb luck.

Anyone who would endanger children like this is beyond help.

Nemo's Brother: Anyone who would endanger children like this is beyond help.

He probably went there specifically for the kids. Using them as a shield basically so the cops couldn't tear gas him or shoot.

Isn't shooting and tear gassing the innocent what the cops do best?

/This is the daily cop hate thread right?

Or he was running and saw a big building that he though he might be able to lose them in - multiple exits and all that.

Dumbass, for sure.

"Capital One-New Beginnings Charter School Network, which runs the school.

School is sponsered enough to have a name drop? Do they go to the Nextel-Tide-Second Chance High school when they grow up?

/Home of the Clean Cells!

MoeSzyslak		2012-01-11 07:01:18 PM

I gotta call Bravo Sierra on this one. Everybody knows that schools are GUN FREE ZONEs. There's no way this criminal would enter a school with a gun. That would be illegal.

/nothing to see here folks

//with a runner up being "well, she said she was 18"..

BronyMedic		2012-01-11 07:11:30 PM

Oh, that's brilliant. Let's go take hostages in the ONE PLACE where the tactical doctrine involving an active shooter for police is to "Storm in there, and fill the asshole as full of bullets a possible to keep him from killing kids."

See, this is why the criminal masterminds are running America, folks.

Viral marketing for the new season?

beta_plus		2012-01-11 07:17:40 PM

Whatever you do, don't blame this on gun control or liberals controlling New Orleans, because that means that you are a racist.

/just like Katrina, this is clearly Bush's fault

Do they have gun control in Louisiana? Seeing as how I'm in Los Angeles I'm a little hazy on what freedoms the rest of the country enjoys, we've lost all of ours.

He should have known this wouldn't end well. If you want to confuse cops, I'd suggest high school.

If it's a New Orleans public school, the state will send you a bill for improvements.

I am sure one of the kids is packing heat so everything should be okay.

dickfreckle		2012-01-11 08:59:58 PM

0Knara: People still live in New Orleans?

Clearly, it's better to live in some soul-dead suburb with no culture, strip mall architecture, bland food, and no football. Given that describes most of America, I can only assume that's where you live.

If the guy is not a policeman and he's in a crowded place waving his gun dangerously and he wouldn't listen to police, just shoot the farker and take him out. A non-criminal civilian would follow the orders of police for their own safety as well, while criminals would most likely just try to outrun bullets and kill people or take hostages.
