Right. Prayers. JFC.

 

[beavers]

OMG. What is wrong with people?

 

[Flying V]

It sucks that we live in a world where your children aren't even safe in their classrooms.

Prayers for all affected by this tragedy.

How about instead of prayers we actually do something as a country about this obvious problem?

If there was an obvious answer, I'm sure we would.

Don't you think this might require more than an obvious answer. Maybe it's even worth thinking really hard about, examining what other countries are doing, and maybe, just maybe, deviating from one sentence written over 200 years ago?

Holy crap! I never thought of that! You think it could work?

 

[Neovivo]

I have prayed after several of these type of shootings from malls to schools, and it keeps happening. Maye prayer isn't the answer!

 

[BigJohn]

I'll keep my mouth shut for the time being, but this is horrible. Absolutely horrible. Even Hell wouldn't be a sufficient punishment for this POS.

Now reporting 2 children wounded, none reported dead from this source

As crying children were led from the primary school, at least three people were wounded — including two children — after a shooter opened fire in the main office.

Yeah, if anything tragic happens to me feel free to skip the prayers and get right to the finger-pointing.

 

[Ignoratio Elenchi]

No, at this point, for the parents who jus lost their child, there is nothing they need more than prayers.

Prayers aren't going to do them any good at this point.

That doesn't mean prayers for those affected by this aren't needed.

Can the atheists put a sock in it for now? Thanks.

Right. Prayers. JFC.

Seriously? This is the #### you people have resorted to? Mocking people for offering prayers?

I think maybe counseling would serve a better purpose. Or we could just send prayers and hope this doesn't happen again. GL!

Some of the posts in this thread are just pathetic. My prayers go out to those that are impacted by this terrible tragedy.

Courant now reporting children among the dead

Apparently one of the shootings happened in a kindergarten classroom.

Whatever you say. If there is something better that you can do for them, then go do it and stop arguing with us about prayer.

Sure thing. Let us know when it's ok for us to disagree with the sentiment that, "for the parents who jus lost their child, there is nothing they need more than prayers."

The lights aren't on in the attic, are they?

Wow, how awful. :(

The shooting, too. :(

I guess not. You should get that checked out. Or maybe pray about it.

Zeff wait...

Right. Prayers. JFC.

Seriously? This is the #### you people have resorted to? Mocking people for offering prayers?

These events are infuriating and then you get this whole song and dance every ####ing time of 90% of the pro-gun people pouring in with "prayers." The people involved are not reading the thread. Offering prayers here is like doing what exactly? Telling people who have nothing to do with it that you're going to talk to your imaginary friend? Get pissed. Think about what should be done.

 

[Disco Stu]

####.

So by offering prayers right now means someone is pro-gun?

Also reporting the gunman may have been a parent of a kid at the school.

 

[BigJohn]

More than a dozen dead. HFS. I think I'm going to puke.

 

[Monsieur Meursault]

Can we pray for more gun control? Would that help?

That was I was thinking originally and could this be related to bullying? A parent who's child has been bullied and he just snapped? Pure speculation, of course.

 

[Franknbeans]

sickening

Bad year for the name sandy

 

[Run It Up]

####### disgusting. Seriously - How many people have to die before this #### is actually discussed? Bad things happen all the time, but some of this #### is preventable.

How do you fix a person who could care less about a human life? How do you teach them right from wrong?

Who hopes other peoples kids are killed? Drop dead moron

Man, I sure hope not. It's a K-4 school, for heaven's sake.

So much wrong in one stupid ### post. Just quit.

 

[Doug B]

From ABC:

Police believe the gunman was a parent of a student who may have had a confrontation with the principal.

Unreal. In the back of her mind, the principal knows and accepts that this kind of thing can happen to her and that she takes a small risk everyday. But why bring uninvolved children into it? But then, there's no logic here to draw on.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Good grief. This is an absolutely sickening. I cannot imagine. :( :(

 

[Flying V]

Can we pray for more gun control? Would that help?

It couldn't hurt. But you should probably pray for fewer violent people.

 

[beavers]

The first 911 call reportedly came in just after 9:40 a.m., stating that multiple students were trapped in a classroom with a gunman, who authorities say was an adult who had at least two guns. The school locks its exterior doors during the school day, so it is unclear how the gunman or gunmen gained access to the building.State emergency management officials confirmed ambulances and other units were staging near the school. Students were escorted from the building and evacuated to a nearby firehouse, and a reverse 911 call went out to parents. Some children could be seen reuniting with their parents outside the firehouse, but at least one group of students remain unaccounted for.

Obvious solution is to arm the kindergarteners.
