Hartford Courant ‏@hartfordcourant CONFIRMED: sources say children are among the dead #newtown

sickening

Its unfortunate in all respects. I firmly believe the only fix for all this **** is for the media and the general public to not talk about it, but that is tall task.

WTF??? This crap is beyond belief.

I agree. But if one gunman is at large, I can see why they report it.

Technically, shouldn't this say "one shooter dead?" It sounds like there were 2, and one slipped away (for now).

apparently it was in a kindergarten room too? They came in and shot the teacher? That almost sounds like a domestic dispute, but not if there are two shooters. Some people are just ******* sick.

Awful. Just awful. Lots of prayers for the families.

100 rounds fired? I sure hope that ear-witness is wrong.

What could possibly motivate someone to shoot children? I hope that The Rapture happens sooner than later.

This is horrible! Who could possibly do such a thing and why?

Only about 15 miles from where I grew up.

That's awful. This is just ridiculous.

DISGUSTING

So sad :sad:
