Nevada middle school shooting


A boy has shot dead a teacher who tried to stop him playing with a gun and then killed himself at a middle school in Nevada, according to an eyewitness. Two other boys were in critical condition as they underwent emergency surgery for bullet wounds suffered in the latest school shooting in America. Kyle Nucum, 13, told journalists that he witnessed another student shoot his teacher in the incident at the school in Sparks, a small town near Reno in western Nevada. Kyle described to the Reno Gazette-Journal the horror that unfolded at about 7.15am shortly after Monday morning classes started in Sparks Middle School.

look the real question is how did he get the gun. why would he do this? neglectance from people and society can make people do crazy things for attention. and he was probably sick.. well RIP you will be missed.

Hopefully this tragic incident will push Congress to finally pass gun legislation.

Its like school shootings is becoming more and common, like its becoming a social norm. New gun laws need to be passed. Also, how did the kid get the gun, where was his parents, i think the people also need to take action to prevent more tradegies like this

I don't know how many shootings its going to take before Congress realizes that we need to reform gun laws. A large majority of the country wants a reform, so our government should come through and pass new laws to ensure the safety of everyone.

Maybe we should focus on the reasons why these type of tragedies occur instead of banning guns

the problem isnt the guns, the problem is the people with the guns. Most of the people that commit these crimes are mentaly or emotionaly unstable. if you were to at least listen to them and help them, these tragedies wouldnt be happening. this also goes out to parents who abuse their kids. they will sooner or later get revenge.
