  1. It is so comforting to see JOCO making big strides in big city diversity news stories isn’t it? See what can happen when the kids that do make it out of the delivery-abortion room are given a chance at a real progressive liberal education system! Keep JOCO school board progressive and liberal so it never goes back to the God in school crowd and that hates diversity in our bathrooms and women sports crowd!

  2. This is sick. Guns in the hands of all the sick people. If this was not a random shooting it makes me wonder the age of the shooter. This is why you are unable to go anyplace without carrying today.

  3. Start raising your kids right people so things like this don’t keep happening. This is the future generation of our lifetime out here- and they need guidence- because this is some bs seeing all this crime all the time- especially coming from children
