The Columbine High School massacre has officially claimed another life - nearly 26 years after the US mass shooting.

The death last month of Anne Marie Hochhalter, who was left partially paralysed by two gunshot wounds in the attack, has been ruled a homicide by the Jefferson County Coroner’s Office.

On 16 February this year, the 43-year-old woman died in her Denver home of sepsis - a reaction to infection.

And complications from the paralysis were a “significant contributing factor” in her death, forensic pathologist Dr Dawn B Holmes wrote in a 13-page post-mortem report.

Dr Holmes ruled that “the manner of death is best classified as homicide”.

    Tell me again when the Democrats had all 3 branches of government again? Oh yeah, a couple months during Obama’s first term.

      Why didn’t Obama secured the Supreme Court, he had the opportunity? Oh yeah… DeCoRuM. Keep deflecting, but the truth is that the US political system is sick, continue playing ball and you will never know freedom before it’s too late.

        It’s true that the political system is sick, but blaming Obama for it is 100% bullshit. How the fuck would he have “secured the Supreme Court?” How would that have worked?

          Do you remember the weakness throughout the Garland nomination? The decision to overturn Roe v. Wade was made by a 5-4 vote, with Chief Justice Roberts supporting the Mississippi law but not agreeing to overturn Roe entirely, if Garland would had replace Scalia there was next to no chance to totally repeal it. Let’s say it was an exceptional and unprecedented move by the GOP under Obama, after the first trump term, Biden was elected, leak showed the SC to be almost entirely corrupt, he never acted on it, because dEcOrUm.

          The protest were… not european like, to say the least. The american are numbs to what is happening to them but sure keep on deflecting whenever you have the occasion that will save the country.

          Edit: I’m 100% against the GOP, no demonstration of their bad faith is needed anymore but it is necessary to hold democrats accountable to the fatal errors they have been committing and I never blamed entirely Obama he just shares the blame.

        You’re going to accuse him of deflecting when you’re trying to blame Democrats for the actions of Republicans?

        Yeah, fuck off with that.

          Republicans are inherently anti-democracy since the civil war… How about acting on it rather than promoting decorum and false promises my friend? How about doing something? You guys act fast when it comes to swaying the blame away yet never offer any self reflection or any constructive criticism, it’s actually boring. On this thread I’ve been insulted twice just for stating some facts, may I remind you trumpster is president of the US?
