2:1 ratio is a BIG WIN for the NRA in the latest school shooting in St. Louis

So... a former student of Central Visual and Performing Arts High School, retuned a year after graduation loaded with a dozen magazines (≈360 rounds) with the intent of performing a massacre.  The doors were locked thus initially stymieing the attempt.  But, he managed to kill a 61 year old teacher and a 16 year old.  Another 7 students were injured by ricochets and rounds as well.

It seems the slain teacher, Jean Kuczka, bravely placed herself between the students and the gunman.  This breaks my heart, asking an elderly teacher to sacrifice herself because the Republican Party and NRA have decreed we can not have sane gun restrictions and non-proliferation of firearms in America.

Now, make no mistake this (2 killed, 7 wounded) is about the best outcome you can have in these school shooting situations, created specifically and explicitly, by the venal cowardice and avarice of Gun Manufacturers and their paid politicians, 

"If there’s somebody who has a will, they’re going to figure out, we don’t want to make it easy for them,” Metropolitan Police Chief Michael Sack said. “We just got to do the best we can to extend that time it takes them to get into the building to buy us time to respond.”

And it's not going to stop because the Gun Nuts, the 3% of Americans who own 50% of the guns, are fanatics and will be more than willing to engage in widespread terrorism, if laws are passed to restrict and outlaw their guns.

Alex Jones, an avatar of the sickness and madness afflicting the Nation, said it a decade ago after the Sandy Hook massacre while screaming at the odious Piers Morgan, 

"I'm here to tell you, 1776 will commence again if you try to take our firearms. It doesn't matter how many lemmings you get out there on the street begging for them to have their guns taken. We will not relinquish them. Do you understand?"

So, 2:1 is the about the best ratio you can hope for in these situations.  Because school shootings are not stopped by random Good Guys with guns, but usually when the gunman's gun jams (as it apparently did in this situation as well) and he either shoots himself with his back-up weapon or is taken into custody.  Gun Nuts, the NRA, and the Firearms Industry have declared asymmetrical warfare on the United States and they are winning.

Now, for the gun nuts and rightwingers it's easy in this above school shooting to just say St. Louis is exactly like Chicago (dog whistle: blacks blacks blackity black black black) and everyone knows that gun crime only happens in those Democrat controlled cities.  Thus, providing the cover the Republicans need to further weaken gun laws, ensure the sales of more guns, and go back to complaining about the price of gas.

But, to make matters worse, the rapid transformation of Voice Over Internet and other communications hacks, has allowed an overseas terrorist or terrorist cell to make as many as 100 false in-progress K-12 school shooting hoax calls, dozens to various colleges, and apparently 26 False reports of bombs or shooters in Minnesota alone.

America is awash in easily obtainable firearms.  And therefore we are not safer, we are not a more polite Nation, crime isn't down (or is it?) I guess it depends on what lie a Republican wants to spew...  But, We, the People are being held hostage by Six out-of-touch Supremely Unjust buffoons perverse interpretation of a sentence constructed 250 years ago and the billions of dollars which flows into the blood soaked hands of a group of elitists in the Republican Party and the ever-expanding Firearms Industrial-Complex.
