Three people have reportedly been shot and have been transported to a hospital. None have passed away. Several ambulances are on standby if there are other victims. Even though Timberview is physically located in Arlington but is in the Mansfield ISD. The district reports that the building has been cleared.

Police have set up a perimeter around the school. They are inside school and it on lockdown. School is surrounded by police and fire trucks from both Mansfield and Arlington. According to scanner traffic, one suspect, described as a black male wearing a gray sweatshirt, left the scene in a Dodge Charger. There may be a second suspect, but police are working through those details.

2. This could never happen in Texas because of too many good guys with guns

an armed society is a polite society. Oh wait....

12. How many good guys with guns are allowed in a high school?

That would be zero.

5. Oh shit, they named the possible shooter - an 18 year-old Black male. The racists and...

white supremacists are going to go crazy.

How soon before we see tweets from Gaetz, Greene, and Boebert and others.

8. Let's get a violent criminal off the streets

And then we can do damage control on the idiot Trumpers.

9. the first narrative is

since there was no death, the shooter couldn't be white and was holding the gun gangster style. AND the story will drop from national news . . .

10. Reports indicate the shooting resulted from a fight that escalated

Why would the right-wing politicians even have any interest in it? They're probably glad they're shooting each other since it was most likely black-on-black violence. I would expect the media will quickly lose interest since it, Black teenagers shoot each other every day in cities and the only time it's ever on the national news is the right-wing channels simply using it as an example of "failed" Democratic leadership and mayors in those cities.

11. You can see what it did to DU's

interest in the story.

[cadoman]

15. we've been primed to become excited by and interested in certain types of stories...

...and wholly indifferent to others. Even when the differences are immaterial.

So the question I ask myself is, am I not interested enough in this story, or am I way too interested in other similar stories that are essentially the same? If we're so easily played, what does this allow the media to do to us?
