What is becoming of our world?

Its been a very hard week for me with my daughters health so I literally broke down crying when I watched the news on this. I have to keep turning away from the kids because of the tears going down my face.

I have reached my point after this, two shootings in one week of inoccent lives is two two many. Every Oct. 2, I think of the Amish Children that were killed in their classroom 6 years ago.

I pray for these families and that God will get them through this!

They just said it could be 15 or more children who have died. What is WRONG with people?! Makes me sick!!

My thoughts and prayers to the families.

This is so sad & makes my heart ache...I have no words to explain how I feel.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the families there.

[Play Care]

My heart breaks for those families

[Kaddidle Care]

18 children, 9 adults. I can't even imagine what would make someone do that.

I am literally sick to my stomach watching the coverage of this. I cannot fathom being called to the school as a parent, there are still families who do not know if their children were on of the victims as they have not yet been reunited with their children. The unimaginable horror the children must have endured.....I just cannot believe this. I cannot stop crying and I just wish there was anything at all that I could do.

Ok now I am mad! CNN says rapid fire and at least 100 round fired. Let me guess, another fully automatic. assault rifle and another 100 round clip. Why are these weapons, made to be used by the military, designed to kill mass numbers of people, legal? People don't hunt with these Oh wait,.sickos do hunt with them.....hunt innocent people. Home protection? Really? Is your home being invaded by dozens of people? Enough! Sure, I support the right to bear arms and the 2nd Amendment, but seriously, if these assault weapons are legal, how come average citizens can't drive tanks and have bazookas and rocket launchers? Yes, it won't stop all the crazy people if you REINSTATE THE ASSAULT RIFLE BAN , but it may stop some.

I just watchedthe report on the news. They say most of the children killed were in a kindergarten classroom. I know we all have heard it before, but blame theseincidents on video games. People are becoming desensitized to this violence. Someone who is not wrapped too tight will want to live out the fantasy of running through a building murdering people in real life. Sad, so sad. This is our world now.

I completely agree! I am all about the 2nd ammendment but these guns were created for military use! Why would a regular citizen need one? No need for this kind of horror to happen again! Omg, I can't stop crying! I want to go get my little girl out of school RIGHT NOW! Bad enough we just had an email from the school saying that 3 high school teens were approached last week (attempted abductions)... No place is safe anymore!

you are right no place is safe anymore!! its like people are just losing their freaking minds! in my town 3 years ago a gunman went into our Hastings and shot it up and injured 3 people and then a local bar and shot it up and killed the door man *who just returned home from serving our Country overseas!* then the gunman went back to his house and killed himself

We found out yesterday that the mall shooting was where 2 of my dd friends work and one goes to a school right next to it.

One friend was working, one was off that day and one was in the school next to it. They were all hysterical over it and rightly so.

Society is letting this happen! The video games that these boys/men play for hours and hours. Its really never girls but boys and men. Then after that they watch these movies that just astonish me.

We as a nation/concerned parents/wifes/mothers need to ban together and stop this somehow. These babies did nothing to this young man. Its just so maddening and sad.
