California governor wannabee
Caitlyn Jenner to Hannity: "My friends are leaving California. My hangar, the guy right across, he was packing up his hangar and I said, where are you going? And he says, 'I'm moving to Sedona, Arizona, I can't take it anymore. I can't walk down the streets and see the homeless'"

Exercising her 2nd Amendment rights. Sixth grade students in the US are around 12 years old.

'Sixth grade girl opens fire at middle school, injuring 3'
A female middle school student opened fire on classmates in Rigby, Idaho, on Thursday, officials said.

Two students and one adult were injured, police said. The adult was treated and released from Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center, while the two students -- one girl and one boy -- had non-life-threatening injuries, officials said.

...

The sixth grader removed a handgun from her backpack and began firing just after 9 a.m., the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office said at the press conference. Two people were shot in a school hallway, before she moved outside and another person was shot, the sheriff's office said.

A teacher disarmed the girl and held her until police arrived.

I don't know if there will be followups on this case, but since this is a rare instance of the shooter surviving, I look forward to hearing her rationale for this.
and her excuse for such piss poor shooting.

The drive by shooting: Never sit on couch at 2AM in room facing street.

LINCOLN, Neb. (KOLN) - Lincoln Police are investigating after multiple shots were fired into a home on Friday morning.

LPD said around 2 a.m. in the 100 Block of B Street, officers responded to a report of a drive-by shooting.
Officers contacted two victims who were in the house: a 65-year-old woman and a 25-year-old man.

They told police they were inside the home when they heard multiple gunshots outside and found two bullet holes in the wall. There was also a bullet hole found in the couch roughly two feet away from where the man was sitting.

I realised when I read this that the shots had missed...

Then I thought "Maybe the contact was via a Ouija Board"?
