Any news of what kind of weapon this shooter had? If I had to guess based on the only two people being hit that it was probably not a high capacity rife.
Colorado bump stock ban is rejected by Republicans in a party-line vote
Quote:
Republican state senators on Monday afternoon rejected a bill from Democrats that would have banned bump stocks in Colorado.
Senate Bill 51 failed on a 3-2, party-line vote in the Senate State, Veterans and Military Affairs Committee.
The measure would have created a ban on the devices, which can increase a semi-automatic rifle's rate of fire to near what an automatic firearm can discharge. Bump stocks were used by a gunman who killed 58 people and injured hundreds more in October at a country music festival in Las Vegas.
President Donald Trump has called for a federal ban on bump stocks, but Colorado's statehouse Republicans have been opposed to such a move. The Denver City Council banned bump stocks in January through an ordinance.
And now this. 3 students from the school have been arrested, and another deputy assigned to the school is off the job- for sleeping in his patrol car!

The Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School hockey team won the state championship on Feb 26 after the shooting. TSN did a great special on it. Beware the onions wen the 17 players on the team hung their medals on the 17 memorial crosses for the victims.
