Was thinking maybe she has a sibling in the school that she felt was mistreated in some way by a teacher or another student. But now they say she began shooting as she entered a lobby area. So that's less targeted to a specific person. Did she go to that school and has been holding some grudge for a while?

If under 18, her parents should be charged with something.

Reports from hours ago reveal that at least three children died, and three adults. The shooter, who has been revealed to be a teenage girl, also died while engaging local authorities.

According to the Metro Nashville PD, the shooter was engaged by MNPD, and is dead. A female shooter was engaged by two police officers in a team of five officers, and she was shot and killed. The female appears to be in her teens, and she was armed with two rifles and a handgun.

She entered the school through a side entrance and went from the first floor to the second floor, firing shots. The shootings occurred in a lobby type area on the second floor.

The shooter was deceased by 10:27 a.m. when she was shot by police.

How do teens learn to shoot assault weapons? Maybe it's easy... I have no idea. I guess there are many "teaching" videos to watch :(
Not a lot to learn, pop the clip in and start pulling the trigger. Doesnt take much skill.

The ratio is about 8 students to one teacher. Sounds like she may have targeted one class. She was armed to shoot many more and had 14 minutes to cause a lot of harm. But she didn't. Imo.

I am curious if this particular girl had training though. The initial reports are that only 6 people were shot and they all died. There are no other gunshot victims. So every person she shot, she killed. That is extremely rare.

More than how she learned to shoot it, I wonder where she obtained them, and how she managed to get into the school, or almost anywhere else unnoticed, while carrying two assault rifles and a handgun.

Also - how did she get TO the school?

I'm leaning towards a disgruntled former student who felt mistreated by fellow students or teachers. JMO

I disagree. She DID cause a lot of harm....
A devistating amount.

Absolutely. But she had the capability to cause worse and did not. Imo.

or it could be just another angry teen with SM full of glorification of violence ...and she saw an easy target

I'm really surprised that, even though the shooter is dead and it's been several hours since the shooting, we still have an "unidentified shooter who appeared to be a female teenager. " Possibly a disguise to enter the building unaccosted? MOO

A 28 year old woman - wow

I'd surmise she was once a pupil at that school.

Otherwise, it would be a strange choice to target for the "publicity" value of going out with the most amount of destruction
