Because I'm sick of seeing the same trite "how is this satire" comments every time I post in this community, I've decided to start including the definition for everyone:

Fellow Madisonian here.
I'm very happy that your daughter is home and safe with you tonight.
My kids go to Middleton HS. Even so, today was a very scary day.
Thanks. Pretty weird knowing that my kid is probably more fine than I am, and it was her school. But there was a part of my day where I really thought I could be burying her
I wonder how this will be as I actually start to process it, because I don’t really think I have yet
Kids are wonderfully resilient for the most part.
They should not have to be that resilient though.
Who ever owns that gun, should be absolutely crucified and thrown in jail as accessory to murder. Apparently the girl, who was the same age as my youngest, had a long history of suicidal and homicidal thoughts.
There are too many morons that own guns and they really need to start paying the price for being morons. You want a gun? Fine, for the first time in your life UNFUCK yourself and spend some time thinking about the responsibility of owning a weapon. The 2nd amendment also say "well regulated militia". Maybe gun owners should be mandated to join a militia where a Marine drill Sergent instructs them the ins and outs of gun safety in that way only the Marines can do.
This one rippled throughout the state. I'm a ways away from Madison and the small town I live in still decided to post an officer at every school in town following the news
