Yesterday mid afternoon a susperct described as woman in brown dress killed two people in her home ( early reports mom and ?) then proceeded to the school and killed 7 more kids/staff and injured more than two dozen which were taken to hospital . Suspect was found dead right after. This was a small 2000 person northern town school held 175 students gr 7-12. Second worst mass shooting in Canadian history. We are in shock.

Heartfelt sympathies, I think we are all sharing your shock and horror. It’s getting some major coverage here in the UK, you’re not alone in your grief. There are lots of questions to be asked and answered but today isn’t the day for them.

Terrible.
Some disturbing similarities to other shootings.
The media will suppress some aspects.
Doubtless they will push from greater gun control, with the same fervour they ignore problems of mental health.

Why-oh-why do these scumbags choose schools as targets for their lunacy.
It's truly heartbreaking.

Holy hell 
that's really sad and shocking / terrible news.
My heart felt condolences to all involved..
Here in the UK it's feels like its a lot less care about mental health issues, and just more gun control what seems to be our government's silly way of thinking or thoughts.

Oh my goodness. I really feel for you. Not surprised you are in shock, that is awful. What on earth could drive someone to do something so terrible?

6 victims in the school
2 in a house nearby
perpetrator suicide
UK News has it on TV News headlines
No confirmation of the identity or gender of the shooter - AFAIK
Absolute bloody tragedy - whoever did it.
My preference is to await official confirmation before getting involved in any reports of details - seems more respectful to me.

Some news outlets, including Canadian ones have named the shooter as Jesse Strang but at this stage I'm taking it with a pinch of salt until more is known, if it is him the BBC will be having kittens reporting on such an atrocity being carried out by an individual who is under the cover of their woke agenda.
