Mass Shooting in Connecticut
http://www.theprovince.com/news/dead+including+kids+Connecticut+elementary+school+shooting/7700431/story.html#axzz2F3FML8pj
NEWTOWN, Conn. — A shooting at a Connecticut elementary school Friday left 27 people dead, including 18 children, an official said.
The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation was still under way. Another official, speaking on condition of anonymity for the same reason, said the gunman at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown was killed and apparently had two guns.
Stephen Delgiadice said his eight-year-old daughter heard two big bangs and teachers told her to get in a corner. His daughter was fine.
"It's alarming, especially in Newtown, Connecticut, which we always thought was the safest place in America," he said.
The superintendent's office said the district had locked down schools in Newtown, about 60 miles northeast of New York City. Schools in neighbouring towns also were locked down as a precaution.
A dispatcher at the Newtown Volunteer Ambulance Corps said a teacher had been shot in the foot and taken to Danbury Hospital. Andrea Rynn, a spokeswoman at the hospital, said it had three patients from the school but she did not have information on the extent or nature of their injuries.
State police said Newtown police called them around 9:40 a.m. A SWAT team was among the throngs of police to respond.
A photo posted by The Newtown Bee newspaper showed a group of young students — some crying, others looking visibly frightened — being escorted by adults through a parking lot in a line, hands on each other's shoulders.
Mergim Bajraliu, 17, heard the gunshots echo from his home and raced to check on his nine-year-old sister at the school. He said his sister, who was fine, heard a scream come over the intercom at one point. He said teachers were shaking and crying as they came out of the building.
"Everyone was just traumatized," he said.
The White House said President Barack Obama was notified of the shooting.

But, Jesus. Those poor kids.
Here's hoping there's a special place in hell for that bastard.
Just sort of numb reading the account.
My prayers go to the victims and their families.
yup
no we don't
Nope, I'm done, fuck guns forever
well obviously but I think it might be useful
I was following this story since it broke
Then they put up a picture of a line of kids being led out of the school with their eyes closed (they were told not to look)
And I just fucking lost it
Uh-oh I accidentally deleted my signature. Uh-oh!!
My thoughts go out to anyone caught up in this.
no?
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.

ABC reported that a little while ago. Still waiting for confirmation.
I have never understood how this is an agrument against gun regulation
It sounds like saying 'oop, well this wouldn't solve every issue about guns so let's just not do anything'
I mean that can't be the intent but that is how it has always looked to me
Uh-oh I accidentally deleted my signature. Uh-oh!!
I uh
I would be more than happy to see strict gun regulation across the entire united states even without this fucking tragedy?
That is what I think.
But I also think that, without knowing more, a gun control debate, at this junction, is not productive and serves only to polarize people instead of encouraging them to come together and support each other in the aftermath of a horrible act of violence
No seriously though, fuck that fucking guy.
potentially multiple guys
they gang up on you like wolves
ban guns

Maybe pay respects to the families of everybody involved, and call the asshole or assholes who did this an asshole or assholes
Just a thought.
