If Americans did this, it would be called hysteria

And it would be blamed on the lack of proper gun control, too. And religious fundamentalists would most likely be the ones behind it, as well. And George W. Bush, of course. And Michael Moore, too. No, skip that last guy. Anyway, after the first school shooting that didn’t take place last week in Cologne caused a little confusion, it now appears that the second and maybe third school shootings that were about to happen won’t be taking place, either. Harmless air guns and broken crossbows are now being confiscated right and left. Schools have been shut down as a precautionary measure. Internet sites are being searched for questionable photographs (were there ever any other kind?). The German police have another good explanation for all of this, of course, but they are going to take their time this time and are still working on their Power Point presentation to make sure it comes out absolutely perfect, this time, like I said.

Ach wie gut, dass keiner weiß, dass ich auf die Schule… gehe bzw. nicht gehe.

Kommentare auf Deutsch? Logisch.

1 - No no, in America they simply let the shooter run amok, get it out of his system. Remember Virginia Tech? They didn't even take the first two shootings seriously, and he was allowed to move to another part of campus and do the real heavy damage. (Comment this)

2 - Well, Ian... with all due sympathy for the victims and their families... that's what happens when officials are stupid enough to declare a campus a "gun free zone." Loonies bent on killing as many as possible in their 15 minutes of infamy gravitate to places like that: No chance that someone might shoot back. And they normally aren't bothered that they are "breaking the law" by carrying a weapon into a "gun free zone."
A tragedy that could easily have been prevented.

3 - Grammar Nazi Alert.
It is PowerPoint and not Power Point. (Comment this)
