School shooting avoided

[Fading]

It's a story from late last week. But in the middle of so many mass shootings, it's nice to see one fail. Even if it's still a messed up situation.

Basically, a racist was saying racial slurs to a white mother, and her two biracial children via Facebook. In fear for her children, she contacted the police. Just in case, the police decided to check the guy out.

They pull him over as he's backing out of the driveway. He has multiple guns, over 200 rounds of ammo, a Kevlar vest, and a detailed plan on how to carry out a school shooting. Looking into it further, he's made threats against a school before.

So because the SOB opened his mouth on Twitter to type hate speech. They caught him right as he was backing out of his driveway to presumably start the shooting. An officer involved said he definitely believed they saved lives that day.

I read about this. It's good at least one of these was averted.
