Summary
A 15-year-old girl, Natalie Rupnow, killed a teacher, a student, and wounded six others before dying by suicide at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison, Wisconsin.
Police are investigating a manifesto reportedly left by Rupnow, though its authenticity is unconfirmed.
The shooting occurred during a study hall, and a handgun was recovered.
Authorities are investigating how she obtained the weapon and her motive.
The incident highlights the rarity of female school shooters. Police urge the public to avoid speculation regarding Rupnow’s identity as they continue their investigation.
Why can’t school shooters just shoot up corporate gatherings of particularly evil industries instead. In the immortal words of Futurama, “Smite someone who deserves it for once!”
That quote has been going through my mind since I first heard the news.
Although to be honest I was thinking that parents who send their kids to christian schools are more likely to deserve wrath than the general population are. I’m not especially proud of that thought, I’m just upset at the way christians want so many other people to suffer.
