I'm gonna be kicking myself when these contests end and I have to judge them lol, I'm opening too many! 
This time I want a story about a school shooting. A friend of mine was involved in an attempted school shooting in new york recently (victim, not shooter! was in the biulding the shooter was heading to when an off duty officer saw the top of the gun) and since then I've been reading the book that one girl from columbine, cassies, mother wrote. And its really sad yet, in cassies case, inspiring. But at the same time I can understand the perspective of the shooters, because more often than not they were bullied horrendously and thats what pushed them to it, which I've gone though and... coped with differantly lol. Not saying what they did was right, simply that I understand it, and don't sit there wondering 'how could someone do that'
Anyway, going completely off topic now lol.
The story can be from any perspective, shooter, victim, onlooker, evil invading space alien, whatever.
The shooting can be fictional or fact
The shooting dosen't nececarily have to happen, it can be an attempt that fails.
No erotica of course.
Swearing is ok, it's somewhat hard to avoid it if you use dialogue in this topic, but please make it meaningful.
All the usual stuff
Have fun!
