Historian Kevin Impellizeri shares a story of a video game controversy to his friends: Kate Lynch and Andy Hunter. Whether you want it or not, we return to our long series on the self-proclaimed "killologist" Dave Grossman, and we finally get to Dave's entry into the violent video game fray as he peddled his killological wares in the wake of the March 24, 1998, Westside Middle School shooting, a less talked about school shooting that happened to take place in Dave's hometown and propel him from rando adjunct to media-anointed expert.

It was shortly after lunch time at Westboro Middle School in Jonesboro, Arkansas, on the 24th of March, 1998, when the fire alarm began blaring in the classrooms. Children shuffled out into the schoolyard. It was a welcome relief from the morning's mundane classes. As children stood around chatting, a pop echoed in the schoolyard, followed by another and then another…SPONSORS -BetterHelp: Thank you to BetterHelp for sponsoring this episode!

*Trigger Warning - School Shooting/ Gun Violence*School shootings in America are not a new thing. They are even recorded as far back as the 1700's... as long as there have been guns to take to schools, it has happened. This week, we wanted to talk a little about why this happens, and what the aftermath of a school shooting can be. We are going to tell you about the March 24, 1998 shooting at Westside Middle School in Jonesboro, AR. This is a case that we have personally watch shape a town and we hope to bring to light some of the aftermath and second hand victims that these tragedies can bring. And while we considered postponing this episode, we decided that NOT talking about these events is a part of the problem. We would also like to take a moment to use this platform to show our support of the 19 students and 2 teachers who were recently victims of a horrible shooting similar to this in Uvalde, Texas. We stand with your community during this awful aftermath, and we grieve with you.

Triggerwarnung: In dieser Folge geht es um Amokläufe, um sexuellen Missbrauch an Kindern und um Suizid. Folge 52 haben wir einige Zeit aufgeschoben; aus verschiedenen Gründen. Aber heute stellen wir euch zwei fürchterliche Amokläufe an zwei US-Amerikanischen Schulen vor. Fall 1: Eric Harris und Dylan Klebold hatten im Jahr 1999 einen Bombenanschlag auf ihre High-School geplant. Sie bereiteten alles vor und zündeten noch eine Bombe zur Ablenkung in einem Stadtpark. Insgesamt töteten die beiden Täter 12 Schüler*innen, eine Lehrkraft und sich selbst. Fall 2: Am 24. März 1998 sollte sich das Leben für den 13-jährigen Mitchell und den 11-jährigen Andrew schlagartig ändern. Auf einmal waren sie keine Kinder mehr, gingen nicht mehr normal zur Schule und auch sonst war nichts mehr normal für die beiden Jungs.

Pastor Gary was at the hospital for his normal Tuesday routine when someone informed him that 15 ambulances were on their way because Westside Middle School had just been fired upon by 2 teenagers ultimately leaving 5 dead and 10 wounded. Choosing forgiveness over bitterness was his message back in 1998, and today he joins us on the podcast to share why.   Gary is the Pulpit Minister at Hillcrest Church of Christ in Paragould, Arkansas.

In der heutigen Folge wollen David uns Sophie einem Thema auf die Spur gehen, das sie so noch nicht hatten: Kinder als Mörder. USA, 1998. Für die Schüler der Westside Middle School hätte es ein Tag wie jeder andere sein sollen, bis plötzlich der Feueralarm losgeht. Erst denkt man noch an einen Streich, oder eine Notfallübung...bis die ersten Schüsse fallen. Instagram: einachterlmord.podcast E-Mail: einachterlmord@gmail.com music by audionautix

I don't know this freshman Congresswoman from Georgia, but it seems to me the media and Democrats are putting some words in her mouth that I can't find evidence of her actually saying. Also, we learn a bit more about the Hitler quote at Westside Middle School, and determine whether this "racist" country star needs to be canceled.

Sorry about the title of this podcast, I love alliteration. We talked with State Sen. Bruce Bostelman about accusations of a toxic emission from a Mead ethanol plant. Then, Don McLean discussed 50 years of American Pie on the 62nd anniversary of the song's subject. Finally, I ranted about yesterday's mask-mandate debate at the Council meeting and an odd source for an inspirational quote at Westside Middle School.

Mary Lee hires William "Bill" McArthur, a well liked lawyer in Little Rock to help her case and soon forms a friendship with Bill and his wife Alice. After Alice's car is hit with a car bomb, the Mafia story doesn't seem so far off.
