They were also apparently carrying assault-type rifles ...

Just curious: what's an "assault-type" rifle?

... and/or autoloading pistols ...

... as opposed to what, revolvers?

FWIW, I heard they had shotguns.

SWAT teams are in the building and if they perform true to form

we may never know whether the kids were trying to save their

fellow students from being batteries for the big machine.

Heh.

But of course there were plenty of witnesses: single out the kids of color and other people who were 'mean to me last year' is more like it.

Prediction: more moral outcry about kids and guns; plus, MSFT will rocket through the roof tomorrow morning.
