Another school shooting

[steve dave]

I can't think of a reason why principals and teachers shouldn't have guns. Seriously, put a safe in the teachers lounge, give a couple responsible trained people the code, some idiot tries this, Principal runs to safe, hands out guns to teachers.... the guy is done for.

Not to mention that if I hear gunfire in the building, the last thing I'm going to try to do is run out into the hallway to try to make it to the teachers' lounge.

rough ridin' scary how typical all of his tweets are. This could have been anyone from the facebook status/twitter from your hometown thread. I am going to confront IRL anyone now who posts a status update about how awful they think their life is.

CNN has identified the shooter as Ryan Lanza. NBC News is reporting Lanza's mother was a kindergarten teacher at Sandy Hook Elementary and it was in her classroom where most of the violence occurred, she is one of the dead.

Yeah, they should have it in their holster, not locked away in some safe.

This is really similar to the massacre in the UK that directly led to their gun ban.

Force them to get help and if they don't want to or it doesn't take, do it harder and more.

Which led to a copycat committing the worst shooting in Australian history, leading to their gun bans:

God damn 

2:48 p.m.: Hero teacher Kaitlin Roig tells ABC News that she barricaded her first grade students in classroom bathroom and locked the door when she first heard gun shots. “The kids were being so good. They asked: ‘Can we go see if anyone is out there? … I just want Christmas… I don’t want to die, I just want to have Christmas.’ I said, you’re going to have Christmas and Hanukkah.. I tried to be positive.”

shut up, cowards.  you hear about massacres involving guns because we have 7 billion people in the world and a media that covers every little deadly incident in the western world as if it held some importance.  your chances of dying by gunfire from a stranger are insignificant.  even debating the issue is a waste of time.

Wrong. Guns are used in thousands of robberies, sexual assaults, non-lethal shootings and other assorted acts of violence every year in this country with enormous social and economic costs that we all pay for.

People driving cars kill thousands each year, so ban cars

Drunk people kill thousands each year, so ban alcohol

People kill thousands each year, blame something else

Just read that killers gf and friend in NJ are also missing.  Sounds like he killed dad at home, gf and friend at home, and mom at school. Maybe

The initial intend of alcohol and guns are not specifically to kill

I don't give teachers near enough credit, they are awesome.

Cars are designed to transport people and things. A gun's sole purpose is to kill.

Well, since drunk drivers kill people every year, maybe we should just make it legal, since we haven't eliminated it completely? And it's not like we spend a lot of money on campaigns advertising people not to drink and drive...

A gun is cheap power, and power corrupts.

was just at my kids' school.  None of that staff is oscar rough ridin' Willis.  Plus, schools are so spread out, you'd need a magic pneumatic tube system to transport guns to the teachers, or worse yet hope the killers didn't think of securing the front office first.

A national news story has never made me cry. Horrific day.

btw, you can have your gun debate if you want, but the real question is how rough ridin' hard would it be to put a bullet-proof entryway and buzzer at the door of every school?  we'll never protect everyone from everything everywhere, but we should at least be willing to do everything we can to protect our children at their rough ridin' school. this was rough ridin' preventable and a pretty easy fix. goddamit. eff.
