Absolutely terrible.

The sad part is this even will be etched in the minds and hearts of the family, friends and schoolmates of those victims forever. It will be a tragedic loss that will be them always. It is absolutely depressing.

The news just said the guy who did it was 20 years old.

Who the **** would do something like this?

**** even trying to passively think about this makes me sick to my stomach. ****ing children. CHILDREN.

I wonder how many more of these shooting it will take before gun proponents and lobbyists stop acting like ****ing morons and realize the general public should not be allowed to have guns.

I swear if I see even one status or comment about how this is why we need less strict gun laws, I'm gonna tear that person a new ass hole.

This story is not just unfathomable, its scary. Where can people feel safe anymore and or have piece of mind that their loved ones are ok where they are? The dude that did this wont last a year in prison before someone takes him out I bet.

As sarcastic as this is, I'm expecting comments like this. Or maybe comments about how we should arm teachers now.

I agree, but maybe we should start a separate thread on the subject.

This is where gun proponents need a reality check. Ok...YOU have used guns since you were 18. What about the mentally disturbed guy down the street? Just because you are stable and can handle the responsibility of gun ownership doesn't mean the majority of people are. That fact alone is enough to keep them out of people's hands altogether.

Why? It's completely relevant to this.

It's usually seen as disrespectful to turn a tragic event into a political agenda so soon after it happens. I just figured we could keep a respectful thread here and start a thread on the specific subject of gun control.
