More news on the actual shooting. According to the Broward County sheriff -- who seems to have grudgingly conceded this -- it seems the school's lone armed guard hung out in the parking lot while the shooting occurred and stayed right there. He has now resigned and is under investigation for his role in the tragedy.

Couple of thoughts:

-- So much for "only the police should have guns."

-- Now we see why the Broward County Sheriff has been so avid to blame the NRA instead of his pathetic department, which appears to have fallen on its face at every turn where this shooter was concerned.
