Connecticut Elementary School Shooting

[ictponder]

Not really sure what to say but I really do fear for my two kids living in this country.

Yep. Gonna need to start increasing security at schools everywhere just to feel safe.

its very sad but all over my fb people are missing the point of the tragedy and blaming gun control. makes me feel very unsafe for my children. It pains me to know that my boys rely on my protection and i know that i am not able to protect them.

I am just glad I get to conceal carry, and I do, everywhere I go. With the recent news, I am going to start carrying extra mags... too many nuts in this world going crazy in random public places.

My thoughts are with the families. I know what it is like to get that phone call. You went to bed the night before perfectly happy and content with life, ignorant to the fact that the people you love could ever die, let alone be murdered. The phone rings - Your world collapses, you don't know how to react - so you don't. The phone clicks and there is silence, the world goes from being this small, cozy place to a daunting wilderness. The walls all seem to pull away and the feeling of despair sets in.. I am never going to get to hug my loved one again. You are alone. They are gone, stolen away, robbed of life and for what? The whim of some asshole? The world is a scary and dangerous place.

My heart aches with the families.




Edit: Can we please let the dust settle before pointing fingers.

I feel for you too Alex. As for pointing fingers, plain and simple, it was a nut job murderer.

As a father who lives in Connecticut this hits to close to home. As the day went on I felt for the parents of these young children and the families of the adults too, whom spoke to their loved ones for the last time this morning. Just the the thoughts of not seeing my daughters happiness when I get home, or just her laughter when we're playing would destroy me. This guy didn't realize or care how many families he affected directly or indirectly.

no words. just a renewed sense of how unconscionable it seems to bring a child into this world.

Was hoping gun control wouldn't be the conversation already while the children's bodies were still warm but I don't get I can get away from it. disgusting! I'm out
