Social media reacts to Butler High School shooting

October 29, 2018 by admin 1 Comment

Here are some reactions from the Twittersphere about the fatal shooting this morning at Butler High School:

“Today, a student was shot and killed at Butler High School – yet classes went on. Imagine what it feels like to be told to get back to normal just hours after a school shooting. We shouldn’t have to live like this.” – National School Walkout (@schoolwalkoutUS)

“You guys cancelled school for several days over an inch of rain within the last month. A student was just killed at Butler high school and you want these poor kids to just sit in class. I can’t believe you @CharMeckSchools” – NESS (@toohighNESS)

“Another day, another student shot and killed by an angry classmate. This time, Butler High School in Matthews, NC. My daughter is a 2017 graduate. This hits way too close to home; AGAIN. WE NEED TO REGULATE FIREARMS!” – Libby Robertson (@lillibetgingerm)

“Rest In Peace to the kid that passed at Butler High School in Matthews, NC @CharMeckSchools lock in, spend some money on TEACHERS and spend some money on SECURITY” – Anthony Morrow (@MrAnthonyMorrow)

“UPDATE: Classes will remain in session at Butler High School after shooting. It’s an active crime scene?! More importantly, perhaps these children need a moment to collect themselves before doing trigonometry?” – Greg Sarafan (@GSarafan)

“Remember, if it was simply a person who had shot someone else over a dispute literally anywhere else, nobody would be yelling about gun control or shootings. Shame on those of you using Butler High School as a soapbox.” – Tyris King (@Azracore)

“I’m in Detroit for a conference this morning, but my heart and mind is at Butler High School. My prayers are with the family of the victim and @CharMeckSchools students. It’s on us adults, we have to better by our kids.” – Mayor Vi Lyles (@ViLyles)

“As a Youth Pastor who loves this city and Butler High School, we have got to do MORE as a nation to protect our students.” – David D. Briscoe (@daviddbriscoe)

“Just texted my husband that there was a shooting at Butler High School, and that it was only one student that got shot. Like I was thankful that it was only one. How low my expectations have fallen that I’m thankful that it’s only one.” – BumbleBee #SetPearlsToStun (@DebAdadj71)

“I picked my scared son up from Wendy’s. We were behind the ambulance. I am so sick of all the shootings! I hope the child is okay.” – Seeker of truth (@Idealinfacts)

“Butler High School must have an administration that has loss all consciousness. What would make them think this is ok?” – O (@lovenheart)

“I want to say I can’t believe it happened so close to home but I can. Beyond devastated for the family who lost their child today and mortified CMS has decided to keep Butler High school in session today. We must do better.” – Lula Dualeh (@iRunWithLula)
