YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Derek Shrout, 17, detailed in a journal what police believe were plans to terrorize Russell County High School in Seale, Ala., the Ledger-Enquirer reports."*

Would the smiling kids in the news interviews even be alive? Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss.
