Re: School shooting in CT
I have no kids, but the pain of this is just beyond heart wrenching.

There are just so many elements that go into the larger issue; mental health, culture, gun control, security procedures. It's just such a big issue, and it's getting worse so quickly it seems.

Hug someone you love.

Re: School shooting in CT
I can't imagine how sick someone must be to go shoot up an elementary school.

Re: School shooting in CT
This is just mind boggling to me. Children in a school? How is this humanly possible?

I'm a new father.. The amount of rage and heartbreak I feel, just imagining my child even being there is indescribable.

If a few of these teachers were carrying guns this wouldn't have happened.

I think you owe it to those dead children and their parents to leave policy arguments for another thread. Have a little dignity.

This tragedy sucks.

It's still the truth.

Responsible gun ownership would have stopped this.

I have a lot of respect for you as a poster. I know a lot of others do as well. Don't flush it down the toilet. Take your political arguments elsewhere.
