No one needs assault weapons. Video games are WAY too violent. Ethics aren't allowed to be taught in schools and there is a lot wrong with our society


Little ones have been murdered. Their parents lives will never, ever completely be happy again. The small innocents just went to school. We all have sent our children to school. I taught kindergarten for decades. They are the most wonderful age of all.

We are all mourning and in so doing we are going through all of the reactions; shock, anger, confusion. We are just incredulous.

I post too much. We all talk too much sometimes. There aren't any easy answers here. We can't say it was caused by this or this or would not have happened because of this or this. We are the older generation, supposedly the wise ones, we should be able to see this all clearer somehow.

We don't know if this man was sane or angry or raised with no moral compass. We don't know and if we did, what could we do?

It is just awful and doesn't look any better after we slept on it.

I feel so bad for all of us kind and loving people who just are absolutely powerless to help or to comfort.

God help us all.



We are all together in trying to absorb how anyone could do this, ever.
