Keep the families in your thoughts and prayers as they cope with the murder of their children.

Amen, Bud. As a retired school teacher this kind of tragedy hits hard. My heart goes out to those parents who lost a child and to all the kids who had to witness the event.

I just saw this on our news. This horrific atrocity will have a personal impact on hundreds of people directly. It is difficult to comprehend. A very large sadness.

Words escape me. What a profound loss.

I had the news on all day (I work at home). I called my daughter about noon and had her give my twin 5 yr old grandsons a special hug for me. I was really choked up. My thoughts are with the families of those involved.

I'm a teacher on active duty. I heard some of it yesterday afternoon at lunch. Too much else going on to do more than pray for the families then.

I tried to read a news article to my wife over breakfast and couldn't get very far without choking up.

Perhaps the Israeli's have something: any time their kids are in groups, they have armed escorts and guards at the schools.

I just cannot comprehend shooting children. To take anothers life thru carelessness or stupidity is bad enough but to deliberately kill children and those trying to protect them leaves me at a loss for words. My thoughts and prayers are with the families of the victims.
