Larry Elder has been saying for 30 years that, when a gun is used to help stop a crime, it's rarely reported by the media.

“If you don't read the newspaper, you're uninformed. If you read the newspaper, you're misinformed.” - Mark Twain

In 1997 there was a school shooting at Pearl High School in Mississippi, he had opened fire killed 2 and injured 7. He was stopped by an Assistant Principal with a gun, who gave him an option to surrender or face the consequences.

"We need more laws." OK - killing people is illegal. Firing a gun in a school is illegal. Take a gun into a school is illegal. A 14-year old in possession of a gun, unless supervised by an adult is illegal. Tell me how more laws would change this?

Gun control keeps guns out of law-abiding hands but not out of criminals' hands. Period.

As a father with a sophomore at Apalachee High School, I just want to say that is pronounced APP-UH-LATCH-EE. And you're right. The two FULL-TIME SRO's were there in seconds and stopped an unimaginable tragedy. All I heard from the White House was an opportunity for more gun control. The Barrow County Sheriff's Office training range is about a mile behind me house through the woods. The day after the shooting at the high school they were back at it, training at 8am and through the morning. Someone on my neighborhood Facebook page posted about it, saying it was "bad timing" and they should "take a break" for the rest of the week. As a parent of AHS students I responded that I was glad they were there because they are the ones standing between my children and the unthinkable.

The two SROs had stronger spines than all of the Uvalde tac teams. Bless those two

Let's secure our schools & protect our children to AT LEAST the same level as the bureaucrats inside government office buildings.

A freaking comedy says it best. "When you do what is right, people won't be sure you did anything at all." -Futurama.

No Uvalde BS here, no "coward of Broward" hiding outside "covering the perimeter". Those Georgia cops went straight in and took care of business.

I’m a senior at a small Christian high school in Wisconsin. Last year a shooting was stopped before the kid could use the weapon he brought. I would LOVE to have resource officers at my school. Why not protect our kids like we do our politicians, our banks, our malls. Teach kids that police are there to help and for our safety.

I heard NOTHING about this SRO before watching your video. Our children DESERVE proper protection because they are worth it. They are OUR future 🇺🇸

Excellent reporting, Colion Noir. I'm a Texan residing in Arizona. I recoiled in shame that my fellow Texans, as police officers in Uvalde, cowered under fire and bitterly failed their duty. This officer in Georgia walked directly toward an active armed shooter and saved further killings. One officer prevailing there, with dozens failing in Uvalde. Honor him forever.

I grew up in Chicago, my dad and I were robbed by two men with guns when I was eleven. I bought a derringer kit a few weeks later and began carrying a gun, all through junior high and high school. I still carry to this day over fifty years later. Many of the men in my church carry. I've stopped two armed robberies merely by being present and carrying, no stories ever covered those robberies. Every day "armed police and civilians" stop crimes merely by being present. A couple months ago, my niece and I were threatened by an idiot trying to merge without looking and getting angry. He backed off and found a side road to leave the main traffic area. I carried an M-16 for twenty one years in the Marines. I expect I'll carry for the rest of my life. "The Law" doesn't stop crime, it investigates and brings it to court most of the time at best. "When guns are outlawed, only criminals will carry guns". John McClain, GySgt, USMC ret.

A gun stopped gun violence, imagine...

People love to throw the term "hero" around like it's going out of style these days but those two officers, are the _definition_ of the word.

Colion, you forgot that the SRO's got there because a TEACHER sent the alarm that locked down the building and called for help. The school had the intelligence to install alarms and locks. Proof that schools can be hardened against all crime--not just shooters.

Thank you for highlighting this!!! Me as a parent of a middle school child that was just 100 yards away in the next building from Apalachee. I have been saying this to everyone. They made the shooter surrender within minutes. I am thankful for these SRO.

I don’t want our schools to feel like prisons…. I want them to feel like Fortresses that protect our children.

My dad mainly watches mainstream news and I can confirm he had no idea that a security guard stopped the shooter, and he agrees that arming people to stop a shooter or even scare them away as a form of deterrence is a better option than a gun free zone. (and he HATES guns)

Colion. Thanks for reporting a accurate news story. Please everyone, spread this story far and wide by sharing. The public deserves to know the truth. Colion your the Man.

It's crazy that the shooters mom called the school and told an administrator to go find her son before he began shooting.

If the government is so benevolent, and they have F-16's and tanks, why are they so afraid of citizens with guns ?

Colin Noir my mother moved down where I live from a blue state to a purple state. She was in my house for three months asked her how many times the guns attacked her she said never. Crazy how that works

100% agree. When 9/11 happened, nobody called to ban box cutters. They added levels of security before entering the airport terminals.

I've deleted all social media except youtube. This is the first I'm hearing about this. You're absolutely right, the media isn't covering this.

But now they'll waste countless tax dollars on him in court when they could eliminate him for 49 cents on this spot.

Msm doesn't want you to know that yet again a good guy with a gun stopped a bad guy with a gun

The very important differences here and the Texas shooting nobody talked about: the doors are locked and shooter was forced outside of the classroom and trapped in the hallway which proved to be critical to the SRO to locate and secure the threat.

I live in Winder Ga, my 17yo son was in a classroom across the hall from where the shooting started. He told me he had literally just came back from the bathroom just 2 minutes before it started. He said there were a lot of kids sitting in the hallway waiting to go into their classroom when he walked by. The other part of the story that isn't being told is that the estranged mother had called the school 30 minutes prior begging them to get her son out of class, that she thought he was going to do something terrible. They not only pulled the wrong kid of the same name, but had 30 minutes to act on the information but had no sense of urgency apparently. Thank God for the armed resource officers willingness to act so fast in the face of danger. They LITERALLY saved my sons life!

Another teenager outsmarted the FBI? That's wild

Democrats: 14 year olds shouldn't have guns let's ban them Me: 14 year old can't legally buy guns

I live in Georgia. This morning while I was drinking coffee at a coffee shop I overheard several middle aged white males (I am the same demographic); talking about this shooting. One of them men commented several times about the lack of an interview with the SRO. He wanted to know what happened from the SRO's point of view. On my way out I asked if I could chime in. The thought I offered was maybe the SRO doesn't want to talk about it. He might know that student, might have been friendly with him. It must have been awful to confront a kid that just killed other students and staff. I would assume the officer doesn't think he's a hero. He's probably grateful he prevented more deaths. That's his job. That's a job we shouldn't need to hire people to do. What do you want the media to do here? The kid is 14. He had an AR-15 style weapon purchased by his father AFTER the child made threats to do the very thing he did. If the 14 year old kid didn''t have an AR-15, he wouldn't have brought it to school. It was a moment in time between two people that brought this to an end. In one of the comments below someone asked what law could have prevented this; there is no minimum age to possess a rifle or shotgun in Georgia. Maybe that's a start. In GA, rifles are common on farms to clear out animals that are an issue for their crops etc. .22 caliber rifles are great for this. But a 14 year old kid with an AR-15 and a known threat to harm others? I bet you the SRO just wants to be left alone. Don't use him. It's an awful thing he had to confront. He was paid to do it. Thankfully he had the ability to connect enough to Colt to shut it down before everyone else died. A lot of things fell through the cracks in this situaion. As much as the discussion is "protecting the 2nd Amendment" the flip side is the 1st Amendment, First Amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. The press can cover the news however they want to provide content their audience is interested in, just as you profit off of your viewers that enjoy your content. A grievance by many people is that there are constant mass shootings. I am not talking about criminals and crimes related to gangs, money, trafficking people , drugs, etc. Those are the criminals that won't care about gun laws. There is a difference between criminals who use crime for gain, and a person that should clearly not have access to weapons in which a crime is committed. If people want to vocalize their grievances for the dead by means of these weapons, they are on equal footing with 2nd Amendment rights advocates who are resistant to make any accomodations for the rest of the citizens. I don't know how to get to the point of balance where mass murders by kids are stopped and people on both sides can depend on the 1st Amendment to allow a forum to create change. The First Amendment protects words, which are not directly lethal no matter who says them, while the 2nd Amendment, protects lethal devices that kill thousands after thousands of peopele when they are in the hands of people who have no business using them. These are two very different levels of intervention that should be on the table. It is ironic that 2nd Amemdment folks say there is a need for weapons because other people have weapons.... The gun manufactures sell to anybody; is this a mission of giving every citizen the benefit of the doubt (nah, they aren't a criminal and not about to give this to a kid to shoot up a school), vs, "if we make it, they'll buy it, and someone else will need to buy something else we sell to protect them from the last thing we just sold. Championing increasing mag capacity is only relevant because other PEOPLE have weapons with increasing mag capacity. Personally, I am looking at a Smith and Wesson 9mm EZ as a first gun purchase that will go in a biometric gun safe where nobody but me will know how to access it. I obviously watch your channel, you have good content. On this though, I don't see eye-to-eye with you. So, in closing, I don't think how the news channels are covering this is irresponsible. Nobody won. Another mass shooting happened when a child had access to an AR-15. A paid law-enforcement officer interviened. Couldn't we agree that it would have just been best if the shooting didn't happen at all?

I homeschooled all 6 of my children. One son is in the AirForce, two daughters married to great men, one son works for his dad's company, one son works for USPS and my last son opened his own business. Every day I knew they were safe. Please raise your children the way God intended.

Instead of demonizing guns, we should be highlighting how responsible armed individuals, especially in schools, can save lives. This is why 2A is so important.

Resource Officers are outperforming the Secret Service... 😬

A disarmed society is a prison.

What no one has brought up is that this happened right after the Nashville manifesto was released.

Thank you for clarity. Cannot believe most of what you see and hear on any platform.

My son goes to this school and was there that day. The SRO’s didn’t hesitate and stopped this threat extremely fast. The sheriff’s were on site in minutes and as I rushed from work to the school, I was passed a dozen times by law enforcement officers from other counties.

Why doesn't the local and major news networks report it? Because it's the TRUTH! The weatherman is the most trustworthy person on the news now!

It is equaly important to notice that a locked classroom door saved and entire classroom full of people. If this was a school wide policy it greatly reduced the number of vulnerable people in these events.

You'd think all the government leaders with actual security at their offices would want the same security in our schools.

You are right. I regularly follow the news on social media, and I knew nothing about this until I came across this video.

Good guys with guns stop bad guys with guns.

The district also has a silent alarm system in place so that any staff member can immediately alert the school and law enforcement whenever something is happening. Thats part of how the SRO was able to respond so quickly

First I've heard about the response, thank you for the coverage on this

Texas LEOs need to learn from this Georgia school resource officer.

I grew up in NY and we all had school Sentries (non-cops) that worked there. Kept everyone safe, knew the students, stopped fights, minimized bullying.

Kids and Parents WANT TO KNOW THAT SOMEONE HAS THEIR BACK… bc you’re SO right. Ty for TRUTH and looking into the matter. God bless you 🇺🇸

This will go into the rest of the “school shooting” rhetoric and we will never hear about how it was stopped… 🙄😤

The mom called the school 20 minutes before the shooting warning them her son was " an emergency". Why is all the terrible events still happening when they could be stopped? This incident and the trump assassination attempt are just two recent examples

If schools should be "demilitarized" shouldn't the Capitol and Whitehouse be?

That never ending mantra of blaming tools for the deeds of evil people, then ignoring the Good deeds of normal people using the same tools. Colion is correct,..all we get is the sound of crickets.🦗🦗🦗🦗

The mother called the school 30 minutes before to warn them. They did nothing.

I had heard of the two resource officers involved in bringing this issue to a peaceful close within 24 hours of the event. The thing is that I just don't remember which radio program I heard it on. And I certainly never heard of it since, until today. Thanks, Colion, for bringing this to light.

Schools need to be smaller instead of having the population of a small town.

I’ve avoided this story in the media due to just not that much interest BUT decided to click on your take FOR THE FACTS.

Colion, I always appreciate your perspective. It’s impossible to logically argue against.

I graduated in May 2012. BEFORE Sandy Hook. Our SROs were always armed. I thought that every SRO was armed. We never had an incident that I’m aware of. EDIT :School always felt like a prison whilst I was a student, taking police officers out of schools won’t change that.

It's a shame this happened at all, but those SRO's are heroes. Thank you for telling this story, Colion. This is important.

Colion, this video just made you that much more important and honest to me. Thank you for your approach and honesty to report also how media news is reported to us for control and bias. 2A all day!

I've seen news stories on this terrible event. I had no idea school resource officers stopped this. Your point is valid.

Finally....a Real Man who is Not Afraid of telling the Truth....AND a Real Man who takes the Oath of Protect and Serve....to Heart!!!...Great Job to You BOTH.

Literally did not hear about the SRO's response on any MSM outlet.

and no one wants to talk about the shooters mother calling the school to warn them.

How did he leave his classroom and come back with a rifle? Did he have it stashed in the school? Did he go outside and was somehow able to get back in?

Thank you for putting this out there. Great commentary.

What’s the point of having a LEO in schools if they aren’t armed?!

In St. Louis, Rep Cori Bush and Mayor Tishara Jones took weapons away from the SROs in the schools. In 2022, at the Cntr for Vis and Perf Arts, a gunman was confronted as he was breaking the glass door by an unarmed SRO. The SRO could only call the police rather than be able to stop him before he killed anyone. As a result, 2 people died because of democratic policies disarming school security.

Thank you for reporting this: Colion, we will definitely see the praises of this unsung hero. We thank you so much much for making us aware because we all had questions and they weren’t giving us any answers. Thank you so much.

Thanks for sharing the truth Colion.

I will never understand, how childish it is to believe taking away your right to bear arms will stop mass murder or any other type of murder. The tool isn't the problem.

Thank you for the clarity of content in regards to this recent event.

Kumalot doesn't have any children ... adult step children thru marriage doesn't count!

When a school shooter uses a handgun, I can understand how that could be hidden in a backpack or under a jacket, but how the hell does a kid walk into school carrying a rifle and no one notices?

Thank you for bringing this to light!

A hardened school with armed teachers is "a prison" but a hardened building surrounded by HEAVILY armed agents and soldiers is totally fine for the entire government.

It's obvious how much effort you put in!

He was trans. Just like the past 2 years of the worst shootings in schools.

Now we learn the mother called the school 30 mins before the event to warn them. Not seen precisely what she told the school as to the danger they were in. The event gets stranger and stranger, and they just want to blame it on the evil AR rifle per usual.

If it doesn’t fit their narrative, it won’t get told!

Thanks for sharing Brother. All of this is pure truth. Going to share it on X.

My understanding is that this was a 14 year old who thought he was gay, and was angry that trans people weren't being accepted. Real parallels to the Nashville shooter.

If the kid had gotten behind the car drunk and killed someone would the dad still have been charged?

Thank you for putting the truth out there. I heard about the shooting, but did not know that it ended in that way.

I agree completely! I graduated 1993 Little Rock Central High School, if you do not know it, check it out. HBO did a segment covering that time as well. We had locked classroom doors, security guards at ever corner in hallways meeting and greeting and whatever was needed to keep the peace, and metal detectors at every entrance. Sad stupid days we live in when 30 years later they still refuse to protect our children and play the blame game for agenda or profit.

How did a 14year old get an AR-15 to school that was 6 miles away.

After seeing the news about the shooting, i wondered how did it end. It was never mentioned. Thanks for your work on helping us maintain our right to bear arms.

i live in Switzerland, WAY more pro gun than the USA will ever be. half the teachers are male all have military service backgrounds and ALL are armed with a pistol and AR. aint no school shootings here, oh n did i mention kids learn to shoot at 12 ? buy a gun if you are swiss ONLY at 14 and military service is obligatory ? did i mention ALL men who are swiss are required BY LAW to practice shooting once a month and Ammo is tax free and as much as you want. crime is all nearly zero here too. im British btw Ex army, love it here, no BS in sight be more like the swiss

Thank you for bringing attention to this story. I did wonder how it ended.

Thank you for providing another perspective on this. I can't believe I never even thought about the people who stopped the shooter.

Agreed. What is the deal with these idiot. My wife is a teacher and they have a resource officer. I’m so tired of hearing people complaining about installing metal detectors. “I don’t want my kids to feel like they are in a prison”.

The father making all of us legally firearm owners look bad.

Ive been reading Ground News for years. They're a great source and glad to see you promoting Colion!

My greatest frustration with this whole thing given it happened 30 minutes from where I'm at is that surrender never should have been an option. Sorry if people think I'm too harsh on this, but I firmly believe that this awful excuse for a human being should have no right to live when so many others lost their right to live and even more have had their lives permanently altered. I don't believe that life imprisonment in any case where there is zero doubt of guilt is justice.

In the late 70's we had 2 ARMED uniformed officers, and 2 ARMED plain clothes officers in my high school.

It's easy to understand: "Never let a good crisis go to waste"

This team-up is pure gold!
