According to a witness report, the school's principal and another staffer were killed while the vice principal was shot in the leg afte a gunman opened fire in a hallway.

A witness said gunshots were heard in the hallway during a meeting and that "100 rounds" must have been fired, according to CNN. After the shots were fired, three people ran into the hallway but only the vice principal crawled back.

Cops responded to reports of the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary just after 9:40 a.m., and said the gunman was in the school's main office, according to reports.

I cry. Satan smiles.

All teachers should open carry, and go to the shooting range once a month.

“I am afraid the Gun Control Fascists will use this to push for Gun Control. Gun Control....”

Yup...would be just as effective as the laws against illegal drugs. Or the laws that one isn’t supposed to come into this country illegally. Or the laws that make EVERY drive only go the speed limit...or...or...or??

HUH??? I thought gun control was having a good sight picture and knowing where your shots went.

It now looks like the shooter targeted the kindergarten class and the principal and other adults were killed when they arrived at the kindergarten classroom that was under attack.

"prayers for the families and children.

No justification for this. NONE. These were babies"

Incomprehensible. Tremendous sadness and anger.

That’s a reason to give another empty speech - and then go golfing - or - leave for his vacation early.

There is no way in Hell I am going to live in this nut infested country without my gun.

Ditto that!

Being armed today is more important now then ever.

Not sure who is more of a threat, the Government or the nuts.

Either way, FMCDH!

Kindergarten children are babies

They are only about 38-40 inches tall. They must have been terrified as they were slaughtered systematically. Certainly some teachers and school staff died as heroes today. Last similar atrocity I remember was Dunblane in Scotland where the butcher used a knife on an entire kindergarten class

Schools have been on lock down for some years and the doors are locked so no one can get in without permission, usually parents are buzzed in by the front office.

Fie on all those who KNEW this man was a nutjob and did nothing or had protection from the legal system. Something must be done about the murderously insane, not sure what though
