Newtown, Connecticut Shooting 12-14-12

"Newtown, Connecticut (CNN) -- Dressed in black fatigues and a military vest,a heavily armed man walked into a Connecticut Elementary School Friday and opened fire, shattering the quiet of this southern New England town and leaving the nation reeling at the number of young lives lost.

Within minutes, 26 people were dead at Sandy Hook Elementary School -- 20 of them children. Among the six adults killed were Dawn Hochsprung, the school's beloved principal, and school psychologist Mary Sherlach.

The shooter, identified by three law enforcement officials as 20-year-old Adam Lanza, also was killed, apparently by his own hand. Separately, his mother's body was found at a Newtown residence."

"Everyone posts on facebook how sad and horrible the shooting in Connecticut is, they talk about it, some even cry. Yet life still goes on as normal, people still post pictures of themselves, hack other peoples pages, though it may have effected us for a moment our lives still go on. But, the people who died, their family, they cant just move on. There are these horrible shootings like the shooting at the Dark Night Rises premiere, but now, a few months later we have forgotten it. It may come up in a random conversation, but it besides that it is never thought of. I don't know what my point of this is but I just thought i should share... (Some people who weren't involved may be different, I'm not saying this is about anyone, just the common people...)"

I hope the police and investigators can find more answer about the reasoning of the shooter, what ever it is it would never be an excuse to murder innocent people. Also I hope that we will find safer, securer, ways to protect schools from future atacks like this. According to the CNN News Report, i quoted at the top the principal had just put in a new security system, that made any visitors after 9:30 ring a door bell at the main door of the school and sign in at the office. So they are not sure how the shooter got it, but the first shoots were at 9:40.Ten minutes after the system turned on... Also acording to CNN News (the link at the top) there was a candle lighting ceremony in honor of those who died. The last point I would like to cover, is President Obama's ideas for gun control. Banning guns will just make it worse, like marijuana. Even though it is illegal people will still find a way to use it. Is you make carrying a gun illegal then more people will break the law and carry one. Also like at the Dark Night Rises premiere if one person had a gun they could have shot the main shooter, before he could kill so many people, some may have died, but not nearly as many as actually did.
