George Wallace said:Very sad news.
The news I heard on CTV, mentioned that this was the tenth school shooting this year in the US; none of them to this magnitude though. Very disturbing that schools are targets.
Altair said:After the inaction following Sandy hook, nothing will ever move Americans.
Expect this for generations to come.

eharps said:While the actual event that happened is the saddest part, the fact that people are so obsessed with knowing everything about the killer deeply saddens me. I have never understood the general population's fascination with with murderers, rapists and the like. People should be more focused on the victims and how to prevent situations like this.
I know that some will mask their need to know about the killer under the guise of wanting to understand motives and how to prevent things like this, but it generally seems like some sick need to know gory details.
My :2c:

When the USA decided that 20 four and five year olds getting their heads blown off by a legally bought weapon was ok (no one even talks about Sandy Hook anymore) the gun debate ended in the States.
Frankly, if Americans don't care about the death they bring to each-other, why should we?
I used to care and feel bad for Americans when it came to guns, but when they decided that Sandy Hook was no big deal I stopped caring.
