Sometimes I let stupid sh!t ruin my day. Some days I feel like a million bucks for no good reason. - I don't even remember of what kind of day I was having yesterday, before I turned on the news.

You have to remember..even if we had GUN CONTROL, these sick people would find a way to get a hold of a gun! They don't have a moral compass and wouldn't feel they needed to abide by any laws!

It was the mother's gun, wasn't it? WHY DIDN"T SHE LOCK HER GUNS UP???
-
dont tell a granny to suck eggs. i grew up in ulster in the 70's and the guns were not legal. but my mother has lived 30 years in winchester and once in all that time were guns showed not used and that was for a bank robbery, plus the police shot them dead. my comment was for those idiots who plead the ammendment and the fact that guns dont kill people but people do. Fact the constitution was written to justify the rebellion against the crown, no more and n o more less. It was not written to say everyone can have a gun but that the right to rebell against a government is just.

e l She may have. He lived with his mother. He may have known how to get to the guns. There are no words for what I am feeling about this. Just deep, deep sorrow and anger.

No...they should be locked away without the kids knowing how to get them. Kids should NOT know how to get the gun.

She took the little bastard to the shooting range to "practice his aim." :

The gun lobby forget in all the mass shootings it is not the criminal class doing it. Not one of the ***** has ever been to prison. In the criminal world you have a gun to commit a job ( crime) and to protect yourself from other criminals.

So sad. All the parents who can never celebrate christmas ever again with their little children. One of the fathers made a very touching speech in front of the TV-cameras about his killed daugther, very hard to watch. And also very tragic about the adults, esp. the female teacher who was nearly at my age (Victoria Soto, 27), she seemed so nice and carrying about the children, all of her friends said good things about her, and it breaks my heart to see the pictures of her on TV and know she's death, with her pretty smilie and this beautiful woman in general, it's not fair. I'll never understand the US and their guns.

I do not like all the guns here either. The tragedy will be felt for generations to come. love doris

That was Elilie Parkers father. He's a f-ing ROCK! First thing he did was offer condolences to the families, including the shooters. Much better man that I am- I would have been a blubbering, angry idiot!

It's So Sad!

I know it aint anything but before i knew that the shit ( i wont name him) had killed his mother, but was how she would cope. A blessing in maqny ways for her not to know her son who i am sure she did her best for, murdered 20 children.

umm i saw a man shot when i was 11 and this was in a country with gun controls. I saved two people before i was 21 and i didnt have a gun. Do you want me to post a picture of me in uniform. the more guns there are the more deaths why it is a damn sight easier to shoot a bullet than stick a knife in someome.
