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?

It's just reacting from a terrible story. Calm down. I know as a Mom I would have wanted someone to stay with MY children. The horror of thinking your child was murdered with no one to protect them is overwhelming for a mother. There's no blame. Just terrible sadness.

Jim, I am waiting for a call from my cousin. She often stays for weeks at the home of one of the families that sends kids to this school. I know one of them is a girl child.

I'll let you know when I get home from school, but I am really afraid.

I noticed one of the posters here mentioned that they often have locals drive them to places since they do not own cars. Fran, (my cousin) is always driving them around when she visits.

Because I can't get the picture of little girls left by their teacher to be tied up and shot execution style out of my head.

seems like there was time to counterattack - had the means been on hand. where did he get the 2x4s from, or did he lug them in when he arrived? did he have them in his car? didn;t he have to set his gun down to nail them in place?

did he tie the grils up first or later on?
