I don't know if you all have heard, but there was a bad school shooting at an elementary school in Newtown, CT. A 20-year-old man walked into the school with an M4 rifle and two sidearms and murdered a total of 26 people, plus himself. 20 of the deaths were children. 18 pronounced dead at the scene and 2 pronounced dead at a local hospital. 6 faculty members, including the man's mother who taught a class there (the class he attacked). In the end, the man shot and killed himself at the scene.
I feel so heartbroken for the families and friends of the victims. It kills me to see this happen, and to children, 5-8 year olds. I can only imagine the scars for those that survived. Please keep these family members in your thoughts. Seeing this happen in such a small area brings so much fear in my mind. I live in a small town as well, and seeing this happen here gives me horrible thoughts about how it could so easily happen here as well.
Anyway, I am very sorry for those that lost loved ones in the shooting. They will be in my prayers for a very long time. God be with them.
