A shooter opened fire Wednesday morning during Mass at a Minneapolis Catholic school, killing two children and injuring 17 other people before killing himself, officials said.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara said the shooter — armed with a rifle, shotgun and pistol — approached the side of the church and shot through the windows toward the children sitting in the pews during Mass at the Annunciation Catholic School.

I will say this is ONLY in proper war. We're damn good at putting down insurgencies in foreign nations when it's the CIA doing it and we don't have to worry about public perception of things like death squads and gunning down civilians in the streets and depopulating whole villages to send a message.

It's really easy to suppress an insurgency if you simply don't care about painting the streets with blood. I feel that this admin MIGHT NOT care about that if push came to shove.
