There is a reason why people discriminate and stereotype and profile those with mental illness. Unfortunately  many but not all  liberals wish to protect them because if they take their medication they will be fine or they will not reoffend because they have been through therapy. Because of this absolutely horrific massacre of our babies I have had enough of this and I type b.s.( I wish it did not get edited because I really wrote in capital lettters the actual word which this instance calls for). Guns are not the problem. The biggest mass murders in America were perpetrated by a fertilizer bomb in Oklahoma and boxcutter knives and jet airplanes. The sick will find a way. Piss on them. It is time to rid America of establishments that ban guns. Those places account for all of the public shootings that occur. Gabby Giffords in Arizona, Columbine The Colorado theater. How many Police stations have sustained deaths from illegal murders? If these people would only realize that murder is against the law maybe there would never be another murder.

   I do find it interesting that the so called insane go out of their way to pick a spot that would be the best chance for it to go down the way they chose.  The Colorado shooter drove by several theaters playing the batman movie. He drove well out of his way to find  one that was posted banning guns.  That is not insanity.  That is just pure evil picking a spot where there is little or no chance of things not going the way he has chosen.  There is a reason almost all of these nut jobs take their own lives.  They are cowards.  The lowest of the low.  If the media would black out their stories and quit portraying them as victims it would help.  No movies, no pictures.  Just a caption that this sludge bucket was a sleazy loser cowerd that will be rotting in H$ll for eternity.

In my untrained opinion, It seems that a lot of these mass shootings are done by people that either realize or do not care what the consequences of their actions are plain and simple. You don't really hear of any of them trying to flee the scene. They've made up their mind to accomplish something and they are going to follow through come hell or high water. Perhaps an uneducated observation, but my .02.

First off I am at a lost for words about this whole thing, it just kills me when a child gets hurt in any way, shape or form by a person. In my opinion, they don't deserve to be aloud to walk the face of this planet. The gun control freaks are going to have a hay day with this. I say you want to protect the schools, have every teacher obtain a permit to carry, heck I'll take a hit in my local taxes to support them doing so and to purchase a weapon for them. Then see how shootings occur in schools when some worthless p.o.s wants to become famous and go down in the history books. Do WHATEVER it takes to protect our children. Banning guns is not the answer, heck the first murder weapon was a ROCK! Are we going to ban rocks? I just don't know what to say.

Folks, this truly is an unspeakable tragedy, but I don't feel the teachers need to be armed in the schools. They should not have to make that decision when the time comes.  This officer summed it up well. We need more security in our schools, by any means necessary. No one should protest a tax hike to protect our babies...




I have been thinking about kindergarten students all day. Five and six year-old kids….with no cares and with eyes on Santa coming soon. I see kindergarteners every day at our elementary school; you can always spot them, because of their book bags. They are small, innocent and love the world…and they give the BEST high fives, ever. They high five with love and eagerness….unaware of this nasty world we live in and the fact that monsters really do exist, in the form of killers, like the one who showed up at a school in Connecticut today.

I have read many of the opinions posted on our page here and want to offer my own. When disasters like this happen, we as a society tend to go way off, one direction or another. Moving to either extreme is not the answer, in my very humble opinion. We should not ban guns. We should not arm teachers.

I am a gun enthusiast. I am an NRA member. I am not a right wing extremist. I have been around guns since birth and have always had one in the house. For those who want to make guns illegal, I have a comparison….cocaine and heroin are illegal. Making something illegal just means that those with a moral compass will not possess or use it….criminals still will. I do not know about the rest of you, but when I am backed into a corner, and have to protect my family from harm or death, I do not want to take a baseball bat to a gunfight.

On the other hand….my gun enthusiast friends need to simmer a little. The talk of “criminal" or "gun free zones” is also a little dramatic. The world is not collapsing. There are not bands of roving killers who prey on people because they enter s store or buildings where guns are not permitted. Teachers should not be armed in a school. I do not want teachers having the responsibility of being in a shoot/don’t shoot scenario or worrying about proper backdrop. We constantly work those scenarios and they are unnerving at best. Mrs. Crabtree should not have to worry about breaking out her Glock while also trying to give directions to 25 screaming 1st graders. Additionally, a small fraction of the gun people who “talk the talk” about what they would do in a life or death situation would most certainly not “walk the walk”. It’s very easy to say or type “If I was there with my concealed carry, I would have killed him”….it’s not so easy to put that play in motion. Many would shoot themselves in the leg, and then urinate. Again…that’s a fraction of the gun people, so don’t come unglued.

So….we had another mass killing at a school. Innocent children….angels…. gone. I have said it for years, to anyone who will listen. It is time to direct tax money to every school in this nation. It is time to make our schools secure. The time for talk is done….it was done YEARS ago. There should be NO one in the building during the school day except for staff, students and police. Dedicate a secure room/vestibule near the entrance for conferences or meetings with parents. Set a perimeter of cameras and locked doors, so these kids can be safe….the teachers can be safe….and the building can function as a school and not a murder scene.

Fed and State elected people, nationwide, listen up…..You have taxed beyond belief. You have attempted education reform numerous times and failed. You are failing children and teachers in a way now that is reprehensible….and they are dying. Stop lining the pockets of your lobbyists and start securing these schools. If you can fund the study of methane gas released by cattle, you can damn sure make these schools safer. And yes, it is on you. You have taxed at a federal and state level so much; you have caused the locals giant issues with passing ANY taxes.

These children leave the safety of home every day….it is our job to return them home, safely. Let’s start making schools a “safe zone”….and not just show up for photo ops when kids die. Lead, or get out of the way.

Thoughts and prayers to all involved…..I just cannot grasp your agony……Chief Oliver

We all know that guns do not kill it the people do, we know rock car or anything can kill, But with the two new shooting in the last week we know there going to call for gun's the problem, and will go after them,  it's a sad sad day when kids are a target,

As to the lock down are school like are airport that will help but I do not see it a full proof way to stop this,  DDS yes they should not make a movie on these, In fact I will not watch a movie on this, it not right to give these kind of people the note ride,  But to make a movie and to have the family friend see this would be sad,  Are hart and pryers go out to them,

This is hard to read about when I have four grandkids at the same age. My thoughts are with all the families, friends and neighbors CT.

 I do have two comments from the previous posts.

DDSBYDAY. I agree 100%. This person (for the lack of a different term) was a coward. If anyone feels they need to kill themselves please feel free to go out to the backyard and do it by yourself. Leave other people alone. 

DroptineDC18. I read the articular from Chief Oliver twice. I can't agree more.

The Government schools that ban guns,weed and drugs are living in a dream world.
The more I see this kind of tragedy the more I see home schooling as a better alternative.
Too much time is spent on diversity and bullying which are common sense issues as well as failed social issues. In the photo of a home school below these girls have a leg up into the real world.
