Nunn, a Republican who represents Iowa’s 3rd Congressional District, added that he will continue to monitor the situation and that the "school is now secure."

"We will not rest until there is full accountability for this heinous act of violence," he said.

Ohh, he's monitoring the situation. He won't do anything to diminish the number of murder weapons that teenagers can get their hands on so they can vent their frustrations via bullets, but he's keeping an eye on things. Great job. You want accountability? Take a look at yourself.

The shooter killed himself, like so many do. What accountability is he expecting? Are they going to try and convict a corpse? Because he surely doesn’t mean real accountability against the gun lobbies or the politicians or the rabid supporters who have fostered and enabled this sort of thing for decades.
