Five people are dead and two others were left wounded in a shooting spree that began at a home in Northern California on Tuesday and ended at an elementary school, officials there say.
Tehama County Assistant Sheriff Phil Johnston told reporters the shooting started shortly after 8 a.m. local time in Rancho Tehama Reserve, Calif., a small rural community about 130 miles north of Sacramento.
Johnston said there were multiple shots fired at the home, and that it “evolved to multiple shots and multiple victims” at the school, where the suspected shooter was killed by police. Johnston said authorities recovered a semi-automatic rifle and two handguns they believe the gunman used.

. . . authorities recovered a semi-automatic rifle and two handguns they believe the gunman used.
A nearby coffee shop owner told KRCR-TV she heard as many as 100 shots fired outside the school.
The obvious take-a-way from all this?
Well, this all could've been prevented if we could change the overly restricted gun laws that Crooked Hillary and her Librul poodles have forced upon us! This all could've been prevented if the kids were allowed to have guns (they should be semi-automatic of course).
Nah, let's go all the way and, give them kids full automatic weapons and, hand grenades, not to mention rocket launchers as well.
Well, since a lot of people who are shooting up these crowds (Los Vegas shooting), churches (Texas), and schools (Sandy Hook, etc).Nightclubs (Orlando, etc) are using semi-automatic weapons, the weapons that children should be allowed to possess should at the very least be semi-automatic.
But even weapons may not be enough-- schools must make the wearing of bullet-proof vests mandatory. Part of the school uniforms of the future!
The new school uniform of the future.

Cool, something we finally agree on .....
A lot of people do that-- some who are really concerned that their weapons-bearing kids learn gun safety from the experts even take them to gun-ranges for the very best instruction available-- as happened in this case:
Child firing Uzi at Ariz. shooting range accidentally kills instructor, police say
Girl, 9, kills instructor in Uzi accident 03:40
A shooting instructor is dead, the victim of a gun-range accident. A 9-year-old girl is surely traumatized. And plenty of people, including many gun enthusiasts, are asking: Why give a child a submachine gun to shoot?

Accidents happen....even with adults.
Auto accidents are the number one killer of children. Parents can't not even secure their children properly in a vehicle. I would be more worried about that than a gun.
Nukes
Did the child OWN the Uzi, or was this a case of BAD instruction.
Enquiring minds want to know !
“The crazy thing is that the neighbor has been shooting a lot of bullets lately, hundreds of rounds, large magazines,” Flint said. “This guy has been crazy, and he’s been threatening us and everything. I just feel like there maybe should have been more effort put into stopping things like this.”
What a load of ka-ka! The guy's right to own guns is protected by the second Amendment-- and the Commie-Pinko Libruls are trying to take that right away from us!
(And y'all know how it all starts...first they want to take away the right of mentally ill persons to own guns as mandated by the Constitution. Mentally ill persons have just as much right to protect themselves as anyone else!)
I figured this was coming .... after all, it's been nine days since the last big mass shooting.
Another great moment in America.
Just another day in American. Sad.
Exactly, just a normal day with another normal rampage shooting. A guy I subcontract off of regularly was in Vegas at the concert with his wife, people were shot right beside them. It was the first time I knew someone personally who had gone through a mass shooting, and I have a bad feeling that it won't be the last.
Good to see that the President* is successfully offering his heartfelt condolences .... oh crap, that would be too much to ask for.
President Trump Tweets About The Wrong Mass Shooting
On Tuesday evening, Trump tweeted: “May God be with the people of Sutherland Springs, Texas. The FBI and Law Enforcement has arrived.”
Sutherland Springs is a village in Texas where ten days earlier a gunman had killed 26 people at a church. He had tweeted a similar message after the November 5 attack.
