5 Hospitalized After Cleveland High School Shooting

CLEVELAND — "A 14-year-old suspended student opened fire in a downtown high school Wednesday before killing himself, and five people were taken to hospitals, authorities said. After the shooting, shaken teens called their parents on cell phones, most to reassure but in at least one case with terrifying news: "Mom, I got shot."

Mayor Frank Jackson said the three teens and two adults were hurt. He said the children were in "stable, good condition," and the adults were in "a little elevated condition."

The shooter was enrolled at the SuccessTech Academy alternative school but had been suspended Monday for fighting, said Charles Blackwell, president of SuccessTech's student-parent organization.

Blackwell said the shooter entered the high school, a converted five-story office building, and gradually worked his way up through the first two floors of administrative offices to the third floor of classrooms.

"Nobody knows how he got in," he said.

Student Doneisha LeVert, who hid in a closet with two other students after she heard a "Code Blue" alert over the loudspeaker, said the shooter had threatened students Friday.

"He's crazy. He threatened to blow up our school. He threatened to stab everybody," she said."

And as usual, the lunatic fringe...otherwise known as liberal educators...will soon begin to demonize the tools of this maniacs trade, rather than their inability to provide something resembling a safe environment.

Thats what liberals do best. Bitch, moan, complain, then pass the buck. Time was when someone raised so monstrous an offspring they'd be somewhat ostracized but 'tis the time of non-judgmental wimps running the show. Young blacks kill one another at a prodigious rate, and the answer to all this rampant killing is to prohibit the ability to defend against rampant killers.

Brilliant.

That's okay though. Once the Oval Orifice otherwise known as Shrillary RodHam assumes total control the survivors of such criminal acts will get cold cash to assuage their shattered little feelings.

And a pony. Never forget the free pony.
