Elementary school shooting

Shooting Reported at Newtown School | NBC Connecticut

State police are responding to a report of a shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School, at 12 Dickenson Drive in Newtown.

An elementary school.
Inevitable?

Hope no one dies.

 

[Mr. H.]

Shooters gonna shoot.

Early reports were two shooters.

Again, the price of freedom. Just like car accidents, we are starting to expect these and move on after the initial "Awwwwww".

It is the price we pay for our second amendment rights. America has long ago accepted that we are willing to accept these shootings so as not to impede the rights of citizens to be armed

Car accidents are accidents. Random shootings are more the result of people being so self centered that nothing matters but them. Sort of like the way the unions shut down airports and close freeways. It's all about them. They aren't getting what they think they are entitled to. Even the nutcases believe they are entitled to feel good and if they don't, it's someone's fault and everyone should be punished.

Reports are now that the gunman is dead. The pity is, gunmen get to keep shooting until the police show up and terminate the threat. Lives would be saved and injuries prevented if someone with a gun acted earlier. A principle, a teacher, an armed guard, someone, rather than stand around waiting to die until the police get there.

When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.

How could this happen? I mean, Schools are gun free zones aren't they?

It's the price we pay. Except for those directly involved, this is just another day. OK?

 

[Katzndogz]

It's the price we pay for the entitlement culture, yes.

 

[rightwinger]

It's the price we pay for the entitlement culture, yes.

You are entitled to shoot people?

 

[The Infidel]

It's the price we pay for the entitlement culture, yes.

You are entitled to shoot people?

Nope... I'm entitled to protect myself.

Home schooling gets more appealing by the day.

On a cheery note, Ravi has a hat!

Was the shooter killed by their own hand or by police?

Had there been prior contact by police with the gunman?

Does a 30 day cooling off period with gun possession make sense, if you have been arrested?

Just pragmatic

The US has 270 million guns in circulation, that genie is not going back in the bottle. The US has a gun culture that is not going to accept any gun regulations whether they save lives or not.

As citizens, we just have to accept the occaisional gun massacres as part of being an American

Arm the Teachers not hormone raging teens. Teachers can have a safe inside their desk to prevent any student from accessing their gun. We also have tazers & other less than lethal devices we could issue teachers. Teachers should be armed to protect the students & themselves.

Multiple deaths reported in shooting at Conn. school

Actually if arrested for a felony they can confiscate your weapons and if convicted you lose the right to keep them.
