These children will be scared for life... PTSD. Its one thing to be involved in something like this... but to be of that age and witness tragedy like this. God help all these families and kids.

Then he took the easy way out and killed himself like a true coward. I hope he burns in hell and the devil and napoleon have their way with him.

He's there right now. And this is really strong ammunition for the gun hippies.

This breaks my heart! Prayers sent!

What it "should" do is encourage the push for more concealed carry.

Reading this just makes me want to leave work right now and go give my little a big hug and be thankful I get to go home to her every night. Very heart breaking.

Me too. I couldn't imagine being in one of those parents shoes. Gut wrenching.

Guys i can't express how much this breaks my heart and watching it on the news has brought tears to me. These kids were in school just like every other day they are there and these demons went in there and opened fire on angels of god. Innocent angels of god i pray that god helps thses people through this and that he has no mercy on these 2 demons spirits.
