No sense in adding a link. I'm sure if you're here you've heard or read things, and damn, just, goddamn.
Meanwhile, there are some very disturbing things about the Madison school shooting.
I realize, sadly (as you can see below), school shootings, and mass shootings, are so routine they cycle out of the news quickly, but there were some serious red lights flashing that were badly missed or ignored...
No, not really, though it should demonstrate what a scumbag he is.

What did Reagan say about them?
They never pass up a chance to pass up a chance, or something like that.
And Pelosi regularly reminds people of how often she cites Reagan. Just saying.
A few years ago I came across a Nixon tape .mpeg with Hubert Humphrey congratulating Dick on the 1972 election, and admitting he'd done as little as possible for McGovern.
