Innocent BABIES!!!!

Just terrible, terrible news... I can't believe it...

I am so angry and sad at this I cannot put it into words. I have a wife who is a school teacher. I have two children who are elementary school students. Those childrren were probably in their last school day before a much anticipated holiday break. I am beyond words.

Those were children, you stupid gutless motherf#@&er. Children!!! Innocent children!

Can't even think straight right now. Absolute tragedy.

I've got to turn off the tv and get off the internet for a while or I'm going to lose it.

Just love somebody!

I'm not a parent but I do have relatives that are little and in elementary school and the thought of them being killed by some coward in an elementary school based on a motive that has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH THEM is unspeakable.

I know this is a question that no one can answer, but really, what the fuck is going on here? Why are people so fucking nuts that they are walking into movie theaters, shopping malls, high schools and now even elementary schools shooting up innocent people? The shit is far beyond conceivable to me right now.

In Arizona, a republican stronghold state They have a Law that Says you can bring a gun into a school. So if stupid Connecticut was like Arizona one of the Preschoolers could have taken out the shooter and this whole tragedy could have been avoided.(R U KIDDING ME.). It's time for Americans to grow up because if school shootings like this continue there won't be any Americans left to grow up if you know what I mean

Innocent children dead. Something is seriously wrong with American society with all these shootings this year alone. Shooting the youth really? This is a social responsibility Americans should reflect on this year, instead of focusing on consumerist frenzy.

These gun control laws are some bullshit. With as many killings this year that has gone down from guns is rather alarming. Yes people will quickly come to ''oh there are thousands of other ways people died this year. I knew people in high school who got guns as easy as buying candy at the conveyance store, and the alarming rate of young people who use guns to. If it weren’t so damn easy in this country for unstable, angry, alienated people to go buy weapons of mass murder to enable their psychotic rage, then 18 (at least) parents wouldn’t be burying their babies a week before Christmas.

When it comes to gun violence, Christians too often either say nothing, or parrot a conservative political position embodied by the NRA and others who, all evidence to the contrary, Saying guns in ''Law-Abiding citizens'' are most likely to prevent senseless harm.. more than start it. And some far-right christian groups are intent on holding guns as a means of life to protect from the government who they think is trying to destroy religion or whatever...

Seeing as i was born in TX. The right to bare arms there is extreme!, and it's not a joke when shows like Family Guy or The Simpsons mock how easy guns come in places like TX. They are not hard to come by at all.

I remember reading about elementary schools being shot up back in the '80s or at playgrounds. You're not sure how safe you are when some loony shows up and shoots at everything and everyone in sight.

I just really can't take it with the media trying to get these babies to give them interviews, outside of the school.

The media doesn't give 2 f..s about any of the victims in crimes like this, just recently at the mall shooting. They where asking someone who witnessed it ''Oh were there people running away? hiding? was there screaming? good God shake my head in disbelief.

The media is cold. I thought we already knew this.

My goodness even President Obama was in tears while giving his speech.

Of course everyone does. But it still is maddening to see they way they treat these thing's like some kind of circus ground.

I don't mean any harm but I know I'll probably get flack for this anyway, but I'm going to say it, I think these incidents go way deeper than gun control laws. These cowards who go into these public places killing innocent people go in with intentions to KILL targets. Point blank. Guns are the weapon-yes, guns are easy to access - yes...however the real issue here is not the weapon used, it's whatever is driving folks to casually walk into these places killing innocent adults and little children as if it's an acceptable way to handle their life frustrations. If there were no such thing as guns available or even if gun laws were changed....then SOME OTHER WEAPON would had been used regardless. It's appalling and it really isn't known how to prevent such tragedies-which to me, is the scary part.

I think that is true, but without guns, there could not have been so many people killed. Lots of people get stabbed to death every year, but nobody has stabbed up a whole school like this!

But yes, crazy is crazy, and the guns just enable the inevitible tragedy to be magnified.

You are right monsters like this don't care about the law so he would have done it anyway but we need to stop making weapons so available

I agree with you, but whereas many people wouldn't had been killed had a knife been used, someone would had surely been killed at the end of the day. I just don't get how these crazies get it into their head that killing little kids and adults will make their personal issues feel justified in some sick way.

We could test that theory by looking at the severity and frequency of similar events in western countries without the freedom to bear arms. I'm not at all confident that such a study would support this idea.

AMERICA, SORT YOUR SHIT OUT.

This is so heartbreaking AND IT KEEPS HAPPENING!

Yes, and killing one person is definitely too many! You are right, there is some other issue here. I don't know if it's drugs or what. But I feel like the signs must have been there and some people just don't want to see them.

Someone was bringing that up on Tumblr and apparently got attacked for bringing it up.

I just had to explain to my children over the phone what happened because they are about to go to cheerleading practice and me and my wife knew that the other girls would talk. Even trying to be as delicate as possible, my 8 year daughter is completely freaked out. That is one of the things that this will do, make children feel unsafe in a place where they should feel very safe. I would love to shield my children from this, sweep it under the rug, but this generation of kids are so media saavy that there is no way to hide it. So thousands upon thousands of children will now potentially look at school as a place of great fear.

This horrible, hopefully already burning in the deepest pits of hell, jackass not only slaughtered 26 people but his act will make school a scary place for many children.

^ In that case, school's been a scary place for years then. Kids and adults have shot up schools for years. This just adds to it. And the scary thing is that you think elementary schools would be safe from harm, but no, no one is safe, that's the scary part.

True, it's not the first time an elementary school has had violence. But I think this one will hit kids harder somehow. They're just so media saavy now, moreso in the past where they may have known a little bit about incidents but not to the extent that they will know about this one.

The randomness of these events is frightening. The openness that so many Americans relish is also why its so easy to have something like this happen. Where do we go from here, metal detectors in every school, even elementary schools? (I know most of the high schools already have them). Is there anywhere safe anymore or are we now in a society where any random crazed nut can take their grievances out on us at any place and time.

I have no answers, no solutions, no theories, just damn sad about all of this.

I have a feeling if teachers were allowed to carry guns in school for protection, this would've been prevented... I know it looks complicated but I do believe it could've been avoidable. Thing is anything people decide on how to handle this is going all wrong. If they allow kids younger than 12 to get detected, then it proves nothing is learned from tragedies like this.
