BREAKING: Multiple people shot at Las Vegas Athletic Club in Nevada
Listen to the comments, mass shootings sound so mundane.
I don't think they killed the guy, there are still cops coming.
I can't.. this isn't getting the baby washed. I can't get to the tanning salon, and I really need to.
There goes SWAT in through the front door. Well we can't get to THIS tanning salon.
You want to go to a different one? Yeah
But apparently there was a shootout. And I guess somebody was killed.

In its attacks on American academic institutions, U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration claims to be fighting anti-semitism. But as @TeenVogue explains, last week’s shooting at Florida State University shows white supremacy is a bigger threat than student activists.

Teen Vogue · FSU Shooter Shows Radicalized White Men Are The Threats to College Campuses—Not Student ProtestorsBy Lex McMenamin

Today in Labor History March 2, 1990: Over 6,000 bus drivers went on strike against Greyhound Lines. The company declared an “impasse” in negotiations and fired nearly every one of the drivers, who they replaced with scabs. During the strike, there were numerous reports of sniping incidents, with unknown assailants shooting at, or into, Greyhound buses that were being driven by scabs. The bosses, to no ones surprise, blamed the union leaders for orchestrating the shootings.

The Nashville school shooter previously pulled a knife on another student. He returned to school after a two-day suspension.

“He had a whole knife in school, and he didn’t get expelled,” the victim said. “It just doesn’t sit right with me.”
