As the saying goes: "Dog bites man is not news. Man bites dog is news."
However, your observation is correct. They are either discussing sexual harassment situations in congress or Jeff Sessions lying again to the senate as of one minute ago when I checked MSNBC and CNN.
Dare I check what the FOX FUX are talking about?
Nope. FOX is about Sessions, too.
Well thank you for checking. No one seems to really be talking about this. Sucks to think we might actually be starting to get desensitized from it all.

Lol. We agree on more things than you think. We just have different personas on here.

Is it terrible that my countries media tends to pay more attention to your countries tragedies then yours does . Maybe it's because such incidence are rare here .

Today's latest shooting was only 130 miles from me - and it was barely featured on the local evening news. A live report from the scene, then on to today's weather. It probably won't even be in the news tomorrow (because there will be another shooting to move on to).

This killer was a multi-tasker.
"The gunman crashed through the front gates of the school in a white pickup truck traveling at high speed, he said. Authorities say this was part of a larger rampage through the rural community in Northern California that left five dead and 10 wounded."

Maybe we should just stop bothering to put our flags at full mast. If we're going to keep putting them down at half mast every time a national tragedy like this happens, and they just keep happening, there would appear to be no point at putting them at full mast.
Seriously, this is the fourth mass shooting in the past 30 days. And, of course, the government won't even try to remedy this situation because it's becoming clearer that the Republican Party has a vested interest in this shit happening.
