elementary school in Newton I have been following it since earlier and they say they got the shooter and he is dead ,what a shame just before christmas and these people have to go through this .
With the ungodly tradegy in Connecticut, today is a time for prayer, grieving and thanksgiving.
Sadly, been following it on live tv for the last few hours...

Just found out what happened, words can't describe the shocking news, so close to Christmas too. It is a time to reflect, seek faith and pray for the grieving family's, Amen.

I pray for the families involved who's loved ones were victims of a monster. Too much of this kind of thing going on now and it's so sad when little innocent children are stuck in the middle of what they don't even understand. Hug your kids tonight.
I cant even imagine ... and now there are folks on facebook making EXCUSES for this POS... really? people need to wonder about Mr Lanza's point of view? From the info released so far, this was NOT a case of not guilty by reason of insanity, it was premeditated MURDER... I try hard to not wish anyone harm in this world, or the next, but ... well, I'll just shut up now...

What can we do to stop this? The bad guys always find the guns no matter what so gun control does not seem to be the answer. Do we place armed guards at each door of our schools and shopping malls? I don't know what the answer is. I don't understand how these murderers make it to adulthood w/o anyone realizing something is wrong. Do we need to all be filed into some kind of psych shops each year and take some kind of sanity tests to make sure we are fit to be out in the world like we take our cars in for emission tests? Geeze makes you want to head for the hills and live like a hermit!
Saying this in sarcasism, but maybe Hitler wasnt totally wrong with his ideas of forced sterilations....

Sitting here in the late night darkness the pain and sadness of so many weighs heavy upon my heart. May the Lord be with us all.

I'd bet many people are probably asking " how can GOD allow this kind of violence in our schools?" I ask " why can't our schools allow GOD in them?" if he was allowed in our schools it would be far less likely this sort of thing would happen!!
Anyone who would ask HOW God could allow this missed out on the most basic of religious teachings... aka it is not for us to question His will or teachings.
God, nor our Pledge of Allegiance are not allowed in most schools out of fearing of offending someone... sorry, this country was founded on basic principles, which we are removing from our lives at every level. We have become a dont ask, dont tell society on nearly every topic.
I will continue to say Merry CHRISTmas to all... I dont give a damn if I offend anyone... That said, if someone wants to wish me a Happy Hanukkah, I will politely and sincerely say Thank You. I am not Hebrew, Jewish, or what not, I simply respect another persons RIGHT to celebrate whatever it is, they want to celebrate, but please show mutual respect for my CHOICE to believe how *I* feel fit.
I am not proud of MY feelings towards Mr Lanza, however being that I am not a god, maybe there is a lesson there I am supposed to be learning,, and simply refuse.
All I know is when I initially heard the news, my heart sank... went through a lot of emotions as we all did... THEN as if I couldnt feel any worse, was still watching as roughly 20 parents were waiting for their children come from another classroom, and none came...
