Big Y BIG flag in a position of mourning
In case you were wondering why the American flag is in that unmistakable position:
Please be advised that in accordance with the Presidential proclamation and as ordered by Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker, the United States flag and the Commonwealth flag shall be flown at half-staff at all state buildings beginning immediately until sunset on Tuesday, October 6, 2015 in honor of the victims of the tragedy in Roseburg, Oregon on October 1, 2015.

peace.
How many more mass shootings do we have to have before someone starts looking at the SSRI and other drugs that every one of these schmucks was taking?
For that matter, why haven't we heard of the heroism of Chris Mintz, who in pulling the library fire alarm and barricading the door to slow the perp down, undoubtedly saved lives. He ran into the library to tell everyone else to get out of there.

On another note: gun free zones. Would any of us in our right minds put a sign on our homes saying "This is a gun-free zone?" Like honey to the bee. More liberal foolishness.
Does anyone carry a gun to protect students and staff at ARHS? ARMS? Or are these also gun-free zones? Might as well ring the dinner bell for the sick bastards out there.
Gun-free zones are a disaster.
Flag was not at half-staff at middle school or high school.
Who's in charge at these schools? Would it kill them to follow the
...Presidential edict? ( sry. Above was commentus interruptus.)
