#Perry #Iowa #SchoolShooting
Pretty soon this is going to be happening every day and nobody is going to care
Early Dec 2023 there were already more than 600 mass shootings in America, getting close to twice a day average.
@@charlestimothy4345 yeah and none of it gets covered most of the time it’s sad
@@charlestimothy4345didn’t you just hear there were 134 gunfire incidents not 600🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
@@Thesoggybuiscuitmass shootings happen all over and most don’t get reported. Now that’s sad😢
Sadly, it’s not really breaking news now a days… Just another day in America.
We have a VERY divisive leadership in my area that makes me fear of kids who can’t see a structure to achieve better goals and make bad decisions like this is just around the corner where I live… And I’m sure similar places are experiencing the same kind of fear, this is becoming the new America — divisive, because politics and news get more donations and views$$$. Even the judge in my county of Minnesota that recently legalized marijuana is making restrictions that are nonsense….. You can’t even sell a grow light in a store that is legally allowed to sell other paraphernalia….oh, and it gets weirder. (ROCK COUNTY MINNESOTA)
….(more info). keeping the story short I’ve been working on this thing that now is a series of four books for 33 years, and may end up being a five book series… One of the books is devoted strictly to the county in which I live, and have lived and was part of the school system all the way back from being a kid, my grandmother live just two houses down the street from me from over 60 years before she died. I even made a video where they were preaching extremism in the park during citywide events called friendship days of all things… I posted the entire video on my account, they even talked about wanting to be a leader within the whole county of extremist to come here and visit…..ON FRIENDSHIP DAYS….. They even went further to condemn the rest of the town for not going to church and going to the bar in being part of the street dance to an event it was a whole weekend… An extension of this church. Zero self-awareness to what they were saying at the pulpit in front of hundreds of people, and then tried to take a man who is not part of the church, and bring him into a preaching to condemn things like critical race theory and dealing with reparations… he spok in code – I pointed these things out with markers in the video.
FRIENDSHIP DAYS VIDEO…in my account… If someone were to deconstruct that video and what was being said, it’s very alarming!!!!!!!!
Last year we had a nationally famous girls basketball college coach gets a local sort of “hero” I’m sure is how he’s appeared… Talked about how he was going to be spreading white colonization in Africa with other church leaders disguised as basketball teaching….. I recorded all of that too but I haven’t posted it. Nationally famous basketball coach.
What a start to the year… I really don’t know how Lawmakers can be this callous when it comes to legislating the illegal buying of weapons. God forbid, what will they say when their kids die during these incidents?
When can we start banning alcohol again? More die on a daily basis from drunk or impaired drivers, but drinking is considered normal and rite of passage
How many are killed or beaten by drunken enraged people or comitt game overs because they’re drunk? Every day this happens and it’s always quite a fe
“…legislating the illegal buying of weapons.” hmm, you answered your own question…it is ILLEGAL to buy weapons outside of the legal framework…against the law…! unfortunately, criminals do not obey the law, or hundreds of laws…passing another law doesn’t make a whit of difference…
If only criminals obeyed laws 😅
Considering this is my hometown, I think I’m a bit more invested than you are. Keep your nose out of our business and stop using us for power grabs and political bs.
USA is a gone case and a gone society……No more a dream Country…..RIP in advance
Our forever wars have become domestic.
was never a dream country
It’s not been a week into the new year and we’ve got a mass shooting.
Is this the 1st mass shooting of the year?
There is no one to blame but the Obama Regime and the O’Biden Regime! People are stupid to keep voting these Communist into office without researching beyond the Marxist U.S.A. Media. When you are raised a Muslim/Communist from birth you probably will rule like a dictator! Here’s a fact I am almost positive youwouldn’t hear from the unethical, unprofessional U.S. Media.Under Obama there were 33 mass shootings, under Biden it is around 20 and counting, under President Trump there were 4 and the worst was an American who took many people down at a Country Concert in Vegas. Then the clueless, brainwashed left say Trump is a dictator? I’ve never lived so poorly than under this OBiden Regime, Obama’s third term, and I never lived as well as I did under Trump and that’s enough for me to love, not hate the man, and pray the clueless will wise up before this next election
Banana Republic
HapPy new year rigth?
There is no need to identify these shooters, thats what they want !
CIA mind control
Already been identified.
The shooter identified as Trans and even uploaded a selfie while hiding a bathroom before the deed.
Found it on Twitter.
@@Tienhamir100OMG 🙁
@@Tienhamir100 Trans or not, they were the usual skin color of a school shooter.
@@Tienhamir100About right
Republicans nra fault ban guns now
It took until the 4th day of the new year?
C’mon, America. You can do better.
First day back from Winter break, it would’ve happened most likely sooner had school started sooner.

they’re slacking.

Is it anouther fake ritual?
Your life is a fake ritual
Yup…funny how this happens a day after the associates list. Coincidence I’m sure.
Guess they wanted an extended winter break.
Where is the Security Officer ?
Not all small towns can afford that sadly.
We had a school resource officer when I went to school there.
Right before the Iowa Caucus? 🤔 Someone is pushing pawns on this chessboard ♟️
Nah, it’s called DOMESTIC TERRORISM
Yeah, and they are using my hometown to do it. 😡
The list dropped yesterday.
Fox news comments are off.
We can’t comment on the latest false flag Fox News ?
Why ?
We need Jesus, you reading this at this hour, you have to know that Jesus is the answer,
.make this little
prayer, Jesus today I know you are the son of god I open my heart to you, forgive mi sins, in the name of the father, the son and the Holy Spirit, today you are saved, everything will get better spiritually.
Shut up
Sorry, did Jesus stop this from happening? No?
So that means your God isn’t all powerful, or he just doesn’t care.
Go preach your garbage somewhere else.
Don’t worry! The thoughts and prayers people are here in the comment section to be useless per usual. Maybe they should find a new God who actually listens to their prayers
Back to you in the studio 🤡
Lol…if you weren’t a worthless heathen, you’d understand how God works. XD
God Better then Satan the devil happy the world is getting bad everyday
This ain’t breaking news, It’s the norm because AMERICA WANTS IT THIS WAY!
It took police 7 minutes to get there? WTF…I know Perry, its like 2 miles long…very small town..7 minutes my God
When seconds count, police are only minutes away!
I mean, how did this happen in a gun free zone? Don’t criminals know it’s illegal to take a gun into a gun free zone?
@@uniquebreakfasttacothey don’t care
@@sammodding4609 really? The progressives tell me criminals can be trusted tho
USA! USA! USA!
Happy New Year
There were 20,138 gun deaths in the US in 2022, excluding suicide. More than 6000 of them were children.
There were 6,701 deaths from terrorism, worldwide, in 2022.
American citizens exercising their second amendment rights slaughtered three times as many Americans as terrorists killed WORLDWIDE in 2022.
Republicans do not care, and refuse to even have a discussion about it.
Thoughts and prayers are not working.
We need to DO something.
Where are all the “usual suspect” comments? Is it because the perpetrator is ⚪ ??
No need to codify it! Black people are always plastered all over the news when we do something! Yt folks know what they doing by not revealing the identity.
When they can’t use the race card, they use the trans card.
What about the usual suspects in inner city shootings? Wanna talk about that? Of course you dont.
Us military shoots people outside America while US citizens shoots people inside America
just when i thought i was the only sarcastic a*shole, i read the comments and i don’t feel alone.
At this point that’s about all one can be unless you want to walk around frightened or angry…who wants to be either of those
@@jugghead-1975democrats.
@@uniquebreakfasttaco
Aristocrats too
@@jkotynek touche…like that answer better.
Congratulations go to the GOP and the NRA!! Your policies are as deadly as your products, and your cash as cold and hard as your victims. To the family with a hole torn in their hearts (figurately and literally), the NRA and GOP say it’s their constitutional right to inflict this pain on you, so all we can do is offer Thoughts and Prayers, or whatever. Pure insanity.
I’m going to tell you what I told the others. Considering this is my hometown, I think I’m a bit more invested than you are. Keep your nose out of our business and stop using us for power grabs and political bs.
The inability of the left to recognize mental health issues, never ceases to amaze me. Nor their ability to treat the symptoms, not the root causes. Just take away the guns and we’ll stop this, right? We could also stop obesity and thousands deaths from heart disease if we outlaw carbohydrates and sugar. Every problem can be solved if we simply eliminate constitutional freedoms, right?
Make mention of the 800,000 deaths from unnecessary abortions a year (far greater than shootings) and you’ll hear nothing but crickets. Are you really going to pretend like the left cares? If you are honest and say they care about controlling people, then we’ll have something to talk about.
Same old tired crap. “Now is not the time to discuss it, don’t make it political.” What’s the matter? Afraid your inhumanity will show?@@jameshunt9208
For the hundredth time it the person behind the weapon. Why don’t you look up videos of store clerks defending their stores from smash and grabs making it harder for honest citizens to defend them selfs would do more harm because people that still want to harm others will get their hands on guns
This was another attack from the alphabet crew. It’s on the radical leftists not the GOP. Nice try.
So wait they shot the elementary,middle,and highschool? Or just highschool?!
Gunman is dead. Killed himself. 3 others injured. All I’ve heard so far. Its my hometown, and democrats are already trying to use it for a political power grab. Like vultures picking over carrion for scraps. Shut up, and let the community deal with it.
I used to live across the street from there. Perry is a nice town but Im so glad i moved my kids two years ago.
Perry is my hometown. Wonder who the resource officer is currently.
Republicans feel we dont need stronger gun laws..well ask the parent of the child they will never see him again.
Murder is illegal yet this happened, see why more regulation is dumb?
Distractions from Epstein
this was not a distraction or a fed plan ur literally schizophrenic
Bingo
Figures on the day the Epstein list comes out a shooting would happen
Another WHITE MALE SCHOOL SHOOTER…..SMH!!!!!!!!
Black school and mass shootings occur at a much higher rate.
How will this get spun to try to convince we the people to give up our rights? Hmmm…
This is America.
As easy as it is to access a gun in Iowa this was almost inevitable
Funny….this didn’t go on in the 70s and 80s….when we all brought guns to school. What’s changed?!
Sorry this was alphabet insanity.
@@number62 the usual suspects
oh yes, Iowa gun-grab black ops right before the GOP primary. what a coincidence. whether paid provocateurs, or pentagram mind-control subjects, or the 2-digit IQs taking pot-shots, your marxist government will be there with its cameras and gun-grab narrative. remember DC’s Commie motto: Ordo ab chao
Ever notice that Shady Crook Promise ads ALWAYS run on Youtube just before these televised law enforcement training exercises gone live in the media take place?…………..every single one of them. (I’m sure it’s just a coincidence)
A New Year just starting, and to think it’s only going to get worse! God Bless The USA
Another day in America
Nothing know a another day in America
This is White culture
*THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS*
In response to a 2023 mass shooting:
Mike Johnson… “This is a dark time in America. We have a lot of problems, and we are hopeful and prayerful,” Johnson said. “Prayer is appropriate at a time like this, that this senseless violence can stop.”
If a devout jesus-freak like Mikey gets his “thoughts and prayers” ignored by God; what does this infer?
1. God and Jesus are fictional characters
2. They are useless, impotent, perverted, bloodthirsty monsters, that feed off of violence.
Can not help but to wonder how many of the people who have done the school shootings have been vaccinated
Funny how identity is never revealed if it’s not a black or Hispanic shooter… Black folks do the shooting our face is plastered all over the news, if we’re shot, our dead body is shown on the news. Yet that doesn’t apply to every other American.
Good luck on the new year people because there is no change, and there will be no change
Only in America
Usual suspect & how CAUCASIAN of him.
Oh really you guys committed every crime during the holidays you guys just assaulted a judge you guys committed the first crimes of the new year so be quiet
@@verify4551+ Crime Stats: WHT 58% BLKS 37% of all crimes & This is not about BLK’s so please leave us outta this.
Yeah but the Caucasians have a long way to go to catch up with black males such as you profile pic who make up less than 7 percent of the population but 50 percent of the murders in the US…
My high school had an indoor rifle range. None of us became mass shooters, and nobody shot up the school in over a hundred years. Gun free zones were Joe Bidens brainchild for those of you who cheated in history class.
Esau at it again.😔
@My2much4u + Yep 👍🏾 & how CAUCASIAN of him.
Until metal detectors/guards are placed in the school entrances…this will probably get worse.
A step mom spoke on camera and said her son was grazed by a bullet and the shooter was a classmate
BORING!!!
Isn’t it a Gun Free Zone? Why didn’t they just call the police?
All this crime in these RED states and Rural area’s
No, not really. Crime happens everywhere.
Crime happens everywhere and at a much higher rate in democrat held cities.
I don’t think so Tennessee, Florida, Georgia all have high crime rates @@drowningpooralice5505
Ironically, I live in Iowa, crime here is almost unheard of and nothing ever really happens
Looks like the cops and media are trying to cover up that this was another transgender nut.
Every mass shooter and serial killer was a CISGENDER MALE. Not a trans woman, not a trans man.
Remember when this type of news was shocking. Now its just normal violence in America.
Another trans activist huh. Maybe it’s the hormones
American politicians, BOTH parties, need to stop fighting over ego driven policies and start working for the American people!
And yet Biden admin got so much done at the start; MAGA shut down the house only for a political stunt. It’s the only play they have. Not hearing of any Dems on the side of the gun lobby so maybe in the future go for full context in your statement.
Trump connection yet?
No ,with your mother
When will we start protecting our students? Why are there no officers on duty? No secure entrances no metal detectors? Shootings never happen at airports or government buildings as often as schools. Taking away, guns from the citizens will not fix this problem. This is proof that police just come to clean up the crime after it’s taken place and not protect you before it happens.
These Public Schools are extremely dangerous and should all be closed permanently. The Public Education project has failed, and should be discontinued. These schools Are Not SAFE, and cannot be made Safe.
Iowa; Is that even in America? Who can list all 50 states? America needs to be smaller and more easily controlled.
look at all the people who care about your opinion…

This always happens the most in gun free zones. I wonder why?
💥💥New year new school shootings. Think about this the parents of the 6 year old that was killed and the parents of the 5 other kids who got shot, never would’ve thought on new years eve that 3 days later their kids would get shot.
