CT School Shooting
 

What a tragedy. Reports of 26 people dead, including 18 elementary students. Thought and prayers to all of the families.

26 dead after gunman assaults Connecticut elementary school, official says - U.S. News

im at a loss for words. this is terrible
been trying to get some info on the web. I know the town, I grew up not too far from there

Kids between 5-10 years old. What a sick and twisted world we live in. What kind of animal would do this. How sad this is.............................

I was watching live. They were talking about 3 wounded. Then all of a sudden 26 dead including 18 kids. I had to stop watching

Very tragic. A friend just called who has a buddy who is a cop in Newtown and said they have a 2nd suspect they caught in the woods dressed in cammo.

Crazy I've been at work all morning and just happen to go online after lunch and saw, crazy times.

Why kids?

Incredible. So Sad.

Paul, they just announced on the radio that the police are saying it was the father of one of the students acting alone. The guy in the woods was released after they determined he had no involvement.

Now reporting a parent of the shooter found dead in NJ???

Thanks, 2nd hand news is always wrong.

It wasn't wrong, just out of date.

Yeah, these situations seem to change minute by minute. I just heard the NJ story on the radio, but they didn't give any details.

One thing's for sure, I'm gonna go home and give my son a huge hug tonight and tell him how much I love him.

i have already gotten an email from my kids school telling us everyting is ok and the kids are safe. really f'ed up, this kids are the same age as my kids. I cant imagine how the parents must feel

I couldn't imagine having a child at that school not knowing if they were safe or not.

I'm sick

what a f-ing coward... killing innocent children who are so small and defenseless... so tragic.

one of the saddest things i've ever heard, a piece of all of us died today...

First reports are rarely right, in a way I wish the first reports were. This is sad and tragic. Unbelievably sad. Cherish your kids.

Just devastating absolutely horrific

I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND....

what kind of mindset could devise such
a horrendous act of violence on lil Kids.

This is amazingly sad... reports are leaning to an entire class of kindergartens... f**king 5 year olds...

There are no words to capture it... doesn't make sense

My heart goes out to the victims, the survivors, and the community. These poor kids who saw the scene while being evacuated are going to need counseling and support. There was a little boy on earlier who said, "we heard he wanted to kill us all, starting with the music room. I was right near the music room!" It didn't seem right seeing a little kid say those words...

Senseless, and horrible... My stomach hurts just thinking about what transpired there today.

Two things I can't process:

1. The sheer horror these 5 year olds felt before they were executed.
2. The type of evil it takes to carry out an act like this.

I grew up in a neighboring town. It's sobering when you realize that it isn't just a big city problem and can happen in your backyard. Such an incredible tragedy and really makes me wonder what could drive a monster to do something like this.

terribly sad and tragic :(
My heart goes out to all those affected
I can't even imagine what they are going thru there
killing 26 people :hs: such a terrible thing

Pete. #1 is what really makes me hurt. That's all I have been thinking about all day.

I sincerely hope there is a hell and this shooter is there to feel the immeasurable sorrow of the parents, the pain and fear he inflicted on the victims while taking rounds every five seconds for eternity. This scumbag cretin of a human being deserves no peace ever.

I had just gotten off a flight in Philly and walked into the USAir Club as the story broke. Everyone was silent and crowded around the tvs. The women we crying and a lot of the guys just had their heads down. I was moved to tears and I am not ashamed to admit it.
I only wish I had been at that school with one of my Glocks. I would have gladly sacrificed my life to take that bastard out.

This is definitely a thing that makes your whole being want revenge. I can't imaging the sorrow and fury of the parents of the victims. Your heart , your brain all call for revenge. Of course there is no place to seek revenge. Only sadness here.

The majority of people think guns are the issue with this event and they should be banned, but in my opinion, sensationalized media coverage of events like this are the real problem. Want the whole world to know who you are??? Go on a shooting spree... These events should be covered, but the shooter should be banned from being mentioned.
