I am very, very deeply is afraid that this could be terrorism.

Mask - elementary school - children targeted in addition to a principal - 100-ish rounds - it's starting to add up.

Prayers for these poor people. If I ever find myself in a mass shooting situation I will not go out hiding under a desk.....more than ever folks should consider obtaining a concealed carry permit and being able to protect their loved ones at any time

I’m hearing the same but that means 13 adults - which would be every frickin teacher at the place. Something isn’t right here.

The reporting on this tragic event is all over the place... I'm not sure what to believe. We'll know soon, I suppose.

Unfortunately I have to log off FR for a few hours... everyone involved in Newtown are in my prayers...

CBS radio still saying as of 12:51pm ET: "The number they're working with now is 27 dead, a dozen MAY be students."

Apparently most of the shooting occurred in kindergarten classroom. Such a horrible tragedy. Two handguns apparently used.

I’m thinking the shooter’s probably another crazy Satanist. Perhaps he had some connection with somebody at the school (I notice he shot the psychiatrist) and perhaps not.

I knew something was up when they interviewed Monsignor and they asked him to hold it together because he started to break down.He was parents and children at the Catholic school.He said that some of the parents could not find their children.

My local TV affiliates reported that the principal had been murdered, too. :(

God rest the souls of the innocent...God punish the guilty, even after death.

apparently father of student. I'm sure he was met at the door by the principal and psychologist - they were shot. And here's my beef - they were sitting ducks. Just because my kids practice lockdown (meaning they are STUCK IN PLACE) AND because the school has a nice sign saying "please sign in" does NOT mean the school nor the children are safe.

Either allow parents like me to carry while on property, for teachers to carry, or lock the doors - all of them - and have a check-in procedure outside of the school.
