      1. It’s not social media. Gateway did go unlock down because there was a person who was suspected to having a gun on the Kenosha campus. He was apprehended shortly thereafter. The SWAT team went throughout the campus.

  1. Great job protecting the kids from the dangerous people on the outside. Now if you could just protect them from the people that are already in the building!

  3. Someone needs to put a name to this kid and his parents. Otherwise, this is how this shit goes unchecked years later when he shoots up and actually does kill 30 people.

    1. LOL. Give the Kenosha News a break. They have to see if AP is covering this so they can copy/paste. They don’t have a reporter anymore do they?

    2. The kids parent’s should be liable for the cost reimbursements to all the agencies involved based on a video I viewed of the kid dancing around his living room with a long gun. If in fact he had a gun at the school. If not, the police should visit this home anyway as he made a video of himself on social media playing with this said gun. At 13, should not have access to such weapon’s. Should be secured.
