DEVELOPING: A gunman opened fire Friday inside a Connecticut elementary school, and authorities reported multiple deaths -- including the gunman -- according to CTNow.com.

Reports also said children were shot but it remains unclear whether any were killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown.

Authorities said the gunman, who was not identified, is dead. An official with knowledge of the situation told the Associated Press that the man apparently had two guns.

The number of victims is unclear. Many of the shootings took place in a kindergarten classroom, sources said.

Words fail me. Pure evil.

A 2nd gunman? A conspiracy? (terrorism)

They happen in clusters, and given the persistence of them happening in Democrat/Liberal enclaves, I’m beginning to wonder if it’s deliberate. /tinFoil

Wow, second gunman and multiple deaths? This is MUCH different from what I've been hearing on local TV stations: WFSB, WVIT and WTNH.

I pray our local TV stations are right... :-(

Why don’t these a—holes ever do this in reverse order. Why don;t they ever off themselves and leave others out of their misery? Rhetorical questions but there are so many of these incidents. The mall in Oregon a few days ago is a recent example. The Aurora, Colorado theater. If these shooters have problems, solve the problem with one bullet to their own brain. Don’t screw with the lives and futures of others.

God bless the victims of the most recent tragedy.

Read an unconfirmed report that a TEACHER who was armed (or school administrator) took out the gunman. If so this is just more proof that guns in the school...in the right hands...prevents more death and injury when this sort of thing occurs.

This sounds like a potential jihad attack. But who knows anymore.

Anti-gunners in shrieking frenzy on Twitter, watch out folks "docholly ‏@docholly My right to LIFE Liberty & the Pursuit of Happiness trumps all 2nd Amendment rights" "RT @PAIGER33: Reportedly, a student's father had a confrontation with the school's principal. #newtown"

If that turns out to be true, the indoctrinator will most likely get fired for having a weapon in a gun free zone. A.k.a. a target of opportunity. Unless the person is tenured and in that case will never lose their job for any reason.

WOW! I wonder how fast THAT part of this story will be buried.
