The school was a “gun-free zone”. I guess criminals don’t follow laws. Who knew?

It’s too bad that those who were there were at the mercy of the killer. If only they could have protected themselves. Why won’t you allow them to protect themselves? Did you get angry at yourself? If you were honest, you would have.

PS-One of the first ones to die, the RA, was a Brother named Ryan Clarke. He was smart – he was doing a triple major. He had musical skills -he was in the marching band. Handsome Brother. I know his mother’s heart is broken tonight. She thought she had him on the right track…and now, he’s gone.

PPSS-One of the amateur videographers was a man from the Middle East, who had told Larry King that he had chosen that school specifically because he wanted to get as far away from the violence in the Middle East. Talk about irony.
RIP all fallen souls.

My heart literally aches for those families who got that call today. I went to a small town college. Though it was in the middle of nowhere, and there were limitations, there was something so beautiful and simple about it too. I thought it was how everybody should go to school. There was a calm, peaceful, friendly atmosphere around campus and in the college town. It was a surreal existence, and the outside world was just that -outside.

That innocence was lost for those who died today, and for the community left behind, which will never be the same again.

Let's say a prayer for all of them.
