Winder is not an Atlanta suburb

I'll change it to Atlanta area...

But really and truly Barrow and Walton are becoming very suburban as folks are pushed out of Gwinnett.

It's more of an Athens suburb but it is part of both MSA's.

I’ll go ahead and speak for our politicians and say “mental health” and then nothing else after.

Drove through there over the weekend. Man it's pretty out there. And that county is fricking huge.

Can't jump to conclusions based on demographics

From Wikipedia:
Winder racial composition as of 2020
White (non-Hispanic) 58.82%
Black or African American (non-Hispanic) 20.43%
Native American 0.14%
Asian 2.98%
Pacific Islander 0.02%
Other/Mixed 5.07%
Hispanic or Latino 12.55%

But what’s the percentage of trans people, that seems to be the main indicator with these situations

I had no idea winder had that many minorities. 15-20 years ago winder was practically cow pasture country. Like people in gwinnett would make fun of winder for being so podunk. I guess that atlanta sprawl is never ending.

Just heard that a football coach and a teacher were killed. Several other teachers and possibly two students seriously wounded. One shooter apprehended, a second fled the scene.



Dang. That's awful.

Man it would take a lot of money for me to be a teacher. They are criminally underpaid these days.

2 dead, 4 injured. One suspect in custody.


EDIT:According to students interviewed by the Barrow News Journal, the two dead are teachers.

Was this a shooting where someone showed up and went after a bunch of innocent kids or was this were a guy or two came on campus with intended targets due to outside of school confrontations?

Terrible. Parents shouldn't have to ever worry about this happening at their kids school.

Reporting is slow because we have to know more "info" about the shooter

parents shouldn't have to worry about their kids but in a lot of instance lack of parenting is why some of these kids suck and decide to kill people

Phil Holloway is claiming 4 are dead. Who knows if he's right (he's a conservative commentator in GA).

Here's a weird one. NBC affiliates across the country are reporting this, but the Atlanta affiliate has only reported the national NBC story on Xwitter. Just seems odd.
