The Media Has More Blood on its Hands with the Canadian School Shooting - The Truth About Guns
Details about the school shooting in Canada are still in short supply. We know that police have a 17-year-old male in custody, facing four counts of murder and seventeen counts of attempted murder. It seems likely that the shooting was motivated by the media coverage given to mass shooters, especially school shootings, in the western world. From thestarphoenix.com . . .

Did anyone know about this...was it covered anywhere in our news media?
A 17-year-old was charged with four counts of murder in connection with Friday’s deadly school shooting in La Loche, Canada, authorities said.
The teenager is also facing seven counts of attempted murder.
The charges were announced during a press conference Saturday afternoon, where officials with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police also offered some detail into how the tragic event unfolded in the remote village located in the northern part of the Saskatchewan province.
“To have the lives of teachers and these students and staff cut short by this unspeakable horrible event is simply unimaginable,” Brad Wall, premier of Saskatchewan, said during the conference.
RCMP officials said authorities responded to the La Loche Community School after reports of gunfire at the campus.
The suspected teenage shooter was taken into custody at gunpoint by RCMP officials. He was not identified because he is a minor.
An adult female was pronounced dead at the scene. An adult male was taken to a hospital where he died.
Seven also suffered gunshot wounds at the school, an RCMP official said at the press conference.
During their investigation, police also discovered an earlier shooting had also occurred at a nearby home, where two people were found dead.
