Do any of you remember this school shooting? It was almost 2 years before Columbine. It happened October 1, 1997 in Pearl, MS. I was still living in my hometown of Meridian, MS attending community college when it happened.
Interestingly, this guy used multiple weapons. He used a bat and knife to kill his mother first, then went to his high school and shot his ex-girlfriend and others.

No one likes bringing that one up because a teacher stopped the attack with a gun he kept in his truck.

Thanks for sharing. Good article. I’m 28 years old and have never heard about this one in my entire life.

I was a kid in Jackson at that time so I remember it pretty well
Seemed unfathomable then.

Yep I remember hearing about it at the time, but I don't believe it was national news. Or at least, not extensively covered nationally.
It actually wasn't the first school shooting. There are school shootings on record as early as the 1840's. Most of the shootings back then were between students, a parent killing a teacher, a teacher killing a student or something of that sort. Not really "random" back then, but they did happen.
