Two killed, others injured in school shooting in Uvalde, hospital officials sayA suspect in the shooting at Robb Elementary School is in custody, Uvalde police said. It was not immediately clear whether any students had been killed in the shooting, but hospital officials said about a dozen children had been injured. Here we go again. Americans must pray more than any group I've ever heard of. THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. I guess GovAbbott needs to force more births to replace all the kids lost in school shootings. Unfortunately things will not change until our lawmakers and their families experience this kind of loss firsthand. EvilMopacATX Absolutely heartbreaking, and exhausting. Nothing ever changes. The tribes will start warring, they'll get people glued to TV's and nothing will happen. It'll be forgotten until the next tragedy. Rinse and repeat.
