Default This is sad. Reminds me, we sent our two sons to a Christian School thru 8th grade (long)

when our youngest was in his last year, a new student came in. He made some threats and did some stalking (to our son and others). We contacted the teacher then principle and were told that it was kids being kids and not to worry. I was not happy with this answer, I said some things I probably should not have, but I felt my son and others were in an unsafe environment. I sometimes disagree with Christians being so forgiving. A few other things happened after that and they moved the kid along. As it turns out the same kid is in my sons high school (now sophmore) he has just been expelled for threatening kids and bringing a gun to school.
I actually feel sorry for this kid, as his parents do nothing to help his situation.

It is very sad to see this stuff happen. To all with young ones, keep'em close and keep'em safe. Let them grow up slow. I feel very fortunate, we are very close.

Default christian packing heat here

You can forgive someone after you shoot them. Too bad no one in that school building had a license to carry. Maybe a few could have been saved. It sounds like the school and the renta cops really screwed up. You can not do any good outside the building with your weapons drawn, while shooting is going on inside.

Default Heartache from Alumni

I am still in shock as most of the country. As an alumni and with several friends who teach there now I am looking to take the AR from PA to VA next week to meet with some and attend some ceremonies they are scheduling now.

Default Prayers to you and all involved...drive safe...

as a faculty member on a college campus I have put this scenario through my mind a couple of times (30 years in IS and no prior planning wouldn't be my style)...you hate to be Debbie Downer but we have to have some plans and we have to practice them...sad, but it is just reality, not to scare folks but to try to keep as many safe as we can.

It is pretty bad down here - but there is a lot of support available, it is going to be a tough couple of weeks. Locally it is being handled pretty well from the news outlets to the churches. Thoughts and prayers out to everyone.
