That's the most American sentence ever.

Well, I think that is my first angry up vote

But how is the little brat going to pay that?

The school shirked it's responsibilities. They will be paying, not the kid.

If American schools are supposed to stop school shootings they will be at it all day.

She warned them multiple times about issues and rumors of weapons. They did nothing. IIRC the child also had a decently long history of other issues. I would sue that school too.
