The moron blue collar killer phoned its wife saying it wanted revenge for something that happened to it 20 years ago. More made up $hit by another scum. That would have made the scum 12 years old at the supposed time it complains about. Here is the legacy the scum left behind: It left its issue and wife to live with knowledge of this $shit for the entire rest of their lives. Whatever the scum said, or left in notes, it is guarenteed, made up $hit. This alien form should have been aborted.

Amish in Vermont? That was a flip remark. Amish live mainly in Pennsylvania and Ohio and could not be more peaceful, myob type of people.

I am certain that the man who did this was not Amish. It seems to be something of a copycat of the Colorado killing, where the boys are ordered out of the room and the girls stay behind.

As the father of four school-age daughters, it makes me nervous.

America has become a sick society. War, guns, killing and hate are glorified.
Our admin sees war as a solution to a foreign society that is not understood, and torture as a tool to make the peoples' lives better. This shoot in Pa saw killing little girls as a way of feeling better. It's the same illness.

America was a nice place once. Times change?

On TV I heard a Mennonite say "this is evil and shows that Satan exists". Aren't we more inclined to view this murdering moron as mentally unbalanced, rather than evil? The a$$hole dwelled on some assinine event for 20 years and then slaughtered innocents over it. I think all schools should be hotwired for a 911 button or a special cell hanging from the belt where all you have to do is move a finger and touch a button. YES, of course, police, swat and FBI will have to be upgraded in all communities. And to pay for it? Get out of these ridiculous wars. Hundreds of millions are spent daily. Like the Monkey Chavez who is buying arms from China and Russia in planning his future wars with US.

No I agree with evil. There are plenty of mentally unbalanced people who do not go around systematically killing little children execution style. Believe me, after coming home from Iraq, I realized some people are just plain evil. Those who have witnessed it with their own two eyes know exactly what I am talking about.
My heart goes out to the families and survivors of this terrible and tragic event.

I'm not exactly sure why my post seems "wack" to you. Amanda said how school shootings need to end, since the children did nothing wrong. I agree, but shouldn't it be taken a step further? How many innocent people are killed by mindless gang activity, random acts of violence, etc.? Do you not agree that our society would be a hell of a lot better if all these were taken care of?

How do we do this, then? Everybody has a different opinion. Some say ban guns. Some say more police. Some say this. Some say that. I'm not here right now trying to push for an option; I'm just making a statement that not only school shootings, but all forms of mindless violent killing in our towns and cities, needs to be stopped.

I agree Justin...100%. But I think the comment that Redoran was talking about was the one you made earlier and I quote "I think the mindless killing in general needs to start." I think you meant to say 'stop' not 'start'. But that's ok you cleared it all up in your next post.

Justin,

Wake up man. This will not stop and it will get worse. The human race is evolving toward its eventual destruction, and there are myriad reasons why.

The best we can do is be at peace with ourselves and watch how we treat others. What happens after that is beyond our control.

There is no way to know when a ticking time bomb will go off. If somebody is bent on destroying themselves and taking others with them, there is no law to prevent them from doing so.

My heart goes out to the families that lost their children in yesterday's shooting (and for that matter to the families of all the children involved - innocence isn't just stripped away through death) I feel so sad for anyone who loses somone to violence. How do you begin to cope when it's completely nonsensical? But, I would take the time to say that we must see and realize the world around us, it's bad... and it's good. Let us remember this. We don't see in the news, not the headlines, rarely buried on a back page somehwere - but for every "random act of violence" surely there must be several "random acts of kindness". We live in terrifying times there is no doubt. I wish we could understand why some turn to violence and such. But, I can only understand why most of us don't. Hope.Faith.Love.
