Topic : Violence in School

they all worry and bother me but this one just sivkens me to the hilt, for one this man never showed any sighns of having a mental problem? acording to all the news he was a model  husband and father? i dont buy it, thears no way any one can go to bed and wake up the next morning as sick as this man was, he had to have shown some kind of sighns of having a problem of some kind long before this day, and the notes he left his wife would leade you to think that by his actions he was goint to teach god a lesson,becouse he was mad at god? wow

all i know is becouse no one saw this coming or thought he had a problem there are 5 famileys sofar with nomore than there memories of thear little girls, no i wont ever beleive all this just happened over night while that sick bastard slept, and if it did then we need to shut down every school in this country now, becouse every time some sorry S-O-B gets mad at god some one some whear in this country is going to louse thear children,  we can put a man on the moon we can explore space as far out as pluto which i will never see what were suppose to get from that but yet we cant make our schools safe for our kids to attend with out being in fear for there lives, come onnnnnn now this is a lot of bull crap here, what ever it takes we must do, this man that killed those poor amish children was just as bad as those people that flew those planes into the world trade centers on 9/11 and it relly pisses me off to see the news having anything good to say about that bastard, i know its done for his familys sake but what about the amish peoples feelings here, this entire country needs to take lessons from those people starting with me, for they truley have no hatered in thear hearts at all only love and forgiveness, i nolonger need to think of what people will be the first alowed to enter the kingdom of heaven first. its a very good thing they have the forgiveness in thear hearts like they do ,for as of this moment i have none!!! im ready to see evil end on this world no matter what it takes.'`

I agree with all of you posters on here. It is getting way out of hand. And yes, it will be "copy-cated". For instance, the anniversary date of the Columbine Shootings, is now going to be a day that parents, ( most parents anyway) are going to keep their children home from school, due to certain students, every year, wanting to carry out that same day at their own school. This happended last year here in the county where I am from. All of our county schools were on "heightened alert" because of certain students having a "hit list" to do away with other students they did not like. I kept my children home on that day, and will continue to do so. Now as of this year, 911 , students were wanting to make that day a "student skip day" in memory of those who lost thier lives. Now we are looking at the amish shooting at their school. So sad. I really feel bad for the parents who lost thier children on that day. The man who shot those girls will get the death penalty, however, he will get it probably 20 years from now and I think he should get  it now and be done with.

My children have to attend public school and I worry about them each and every day. All I can do is put it in Gods hands and hope they come home safe and sound. If it gets really worse in schools, then I will have no choice but to homeschool my kids. I am really afraid of what this new generation will be like in the years to come.

Things just don't make sense anymore and the fact remains that the country in so many situations is focusing on the wrong issues!! and that children don't even know which way to turn because they don't know who to trust and who to depend upon for positive support, because when our kids go to school the last and first thing on our minds should be I wonder if someone is coming to school with a gun or knife or any type of weapon to harm their child or their best friend???  I homeschooled my daughter for 2yrs and she is now in the 8th grade and sometimes I wonder if that is the right choice because of incidents like this and other things that have happened in the past... Children should not be worrying about things like this, they should be wondering about what to wear the next day, or what their friend is doing or if the test they took made a good grade on it...i was watching the VIEW and Rosie O'Donnell made so good points about guns in general and I agree with her on everything she said, I THINK WHEN PEOPLE ARE ABLE TO GO GET A GUN THEY SHOULD BE ON A LIST WHERE THEY CAN BE CONTACTED ANYTIME TO ALLOW AUTHORITIES TO JUST FOLLOW UP ON THEIR WELL BEING, AND TO SEE HOW OFTEN THEY USE THEIR GUN AND WHY, AND TO SET UP SOMETHING IN EACH CITY OR STATE TO WHERE THE GUN OWNER IS LIABLE TO PAY SOMETHING TOWARDS EVERYONE WHO HAS USED A GUN FOR KILLING ANOTHER HUMAN BEING OTHER THEN SELF DEFENSE WHICH MAY IN TURN MAKE STRONGER RULES AND GUIDELINES FOR PEOPLE WHO DO SELL THEM, BECAUSE WAITING PERIODS AND IDS ARE NOT ENOUGH...!!! SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE SOON NOT LATER.. THANKS FOR READING...
