Absolutely sickening, if only they cared about controlling guns as much as they do women's bodies.

Just imagine if that security had have been there permanently, just like it is for pretty much every other government building.

You get too many school shootings but rarely any in other government buildings but the other government buildings are defended while the Schools (where too many of these massacres happen) are left undefended. Who's doing the maths?

Private schools are heavily defended, public schools are sitting ducks unlike Politicians who are also heavily defended.

So remove the weapons from law abiding citizens and allow the bad guys to have all the weapons they want, and they will get them.

If the teachers had been armed along with the pupils, that gunman would have been taken out sooner.

Guns don't kill people
Gun control laws and their advocates kill people.

Support your local branch of the NRA!

That was a party election broadcast by all politicians in the pocket, sorry supported by the NRA

When guns are freely available and can never be taken out of circulation there is a very good argument for arming up teachers and the like. The gun problem in america can't be tackled in the same way to a country where gun owners are in the minority

[UserSince2005]

Here in texas we are all so shocked. my texan friends are like family and have really taken this hard. i feel like a texan today.

Very sad, but when will they learn!!

27th school shooting this year in America!!! And yet they will say it's their right to bare arms as an excuse for allowing anyone to go purchase a gun with no background checks.

On a side note, that cop is ridiculously HOT

Isn't that the truth.

This is so sad

[Cherie]

An elementary school, that is really young kids? So this isn’t a guy who was bullied at school and take his revenge scenario


Those poor kiddies

[bots]

7-10 year old kids. It's a particularly depraved individual that would go after them

Sure start arming teachers and then when these nuts move onto new targets start arming those too and soon it'll just be a complete free for all, GREAT solution.
