How can you blame the victims for the evil that was done?

I don't blame them. I've already stated that they probably would have died also. But we don't know that either. How do you not blame an adult for leaving children with a killer?

She was told to leave by a man with a gun. What in the heck else do you want her to have done? Get the man with the gun really mad by not obeying his instructions?

Why can't a few people just say NOTHING rather than harping on stuff while the story unfolds?

Excuse me, I don't want to get too involved in this argument. But you do say you don't blame, then you say how can you not blame ... Emotions are heightened right now. I understand your feeling of protectiveness towards the children and your sense of adult responsibility. We do not know the full story and we were not there. Believe me, how I wish this horror had not happened today.

Adult? Think Laura Ingalls from Little House on the Prairie. These Amish teachers can be 18 year old girls with a GED who never saw the inside of a public school. They aren't 40 year old women with a 4 year college degree. They certainly are sheltered enough to have no experience with evil such as this.
