“Armed security personnel on site, yes.”

Most schools have at least one cop on site now days, not necessarily to prevent something like this but more as kind of a prison guard that makes sure the prisoners ... err students don’t get out of line. I expect after this that they will indeed have armed police in most schools and maybe even metal detectors like they have in most urban schools now days.

Just checked out his facebook page. Not much on it. Says he lives in NJ but is from Newtown CT .. so theirs the connection. He probably went to school their as a kid. Some people will go crazy as he has a 2 min video of him on his FB page playing Grand Theft Auto and crashing cars for a couple of min. Nothing out of the ordinary though on there.

Thank you. I appreciate the post.

This is the photo being aired, so I’m fairly confident you’ve got it right.

Everyone lost today. Nobody won. [The Left WILL try to make sure they do though. I have little doubt.]

“Megan Kelly just announced over the air that she has two young children.”

And why wouldn’t she?
She’s just trying to make sense of this like all of us.

20 something year old guy with four weapons, two pistols one rifle dunno what the other one was, bulletproof vest, goes into a school, shoots the principal, a passle of children, and then ends up dead.
Second man running from the scene captured in the woods.
Haven’t heard any names yet, which is real odd.

"It is criminal for schools not to have armed security personnel on site, because schools are about the softest target I can imagine."

Yet another reason to home school. How is it we willingly send our kids to places that need armed guards?

What has changed so much in the last 50 years? Something sure has. While there has never been a perfect time. The idea of armed guards at school?

Where do the anti-gunners find all these volunteers who will die for the cause?

I guess the same place arabs find vest bombers.

He posted this pic on December 9, last Sunday. No doubt he was planning his vile actions at the time.

They are reporting he killed his father in NJ, and his mother, a teacher at the school in Newtown.

Psycho.

What was his motive? Was this just (supposedly) random?
