There's been a school shooting today in Connecticut.

The number of dead seems uncertain, but it's a lot.

Just heard it on the radio. Possibly 20-30 dead, including the gunman himself...

Jesus Christ. What? What the hell next?!

Between this, the Oregon thing, and armed robbers who fled onto my university's campus on Wednesday, I'm gettin' tired of this ****. But I will wait for Fox News' permission to talk about the need to do more to curb gun violence.

Can this, please, finally be the straw the breaks the camel's back with regards to the right to bear arms and gun control? So sick.

I'm waiting for someone to say that this would have been averted if one of the teachers was carrying a firearm etc... because that appears to make everything all right and never runs the risk of making a problem worse.

Oh my god. I'd heard about it earlier, but I'd thought it was only the gunman who was shot dead. Twenty kids.... Holy ****

It was an elementary school that goes up to the 4th grade. There are some TV interviews of some of the kids who were evacuated. And of a teacher saying the children were told to hold hands and close their eyes as they walked through the main hallway. This is so sickening.

Horrible. The death toll is closer to 30 now.
First the mall shootout and now a school. What the hell is going on?!

My condolences to the families and friends of the victims.

Yeah. We definetely need to have this discussion. There are actually people who are trying figure out how to use 3D printers to make printable guns.
