Locking the schools down don't work, that nut in Colorado walked in with the school kids.

looks like we better place an armed guard at all our schools starting this afternoon.

The entire problem is----easy access to guns!!! Plain and simple. As long as Republicans keep getting money from gun lobbists, the gun problems at schools will unfortunately continue. What does it take America??? Learn the issues---put a stop to these useless killings!!! Learn what the American lobby does!

The prisons are full already, of course this killer is dead already, However, if the death penalty were used more often, when there is absolutely No doubt they did the crime, I believe this would help put a stop to so many murders.

By the way, Vegas made news today with a school lockdown for a kid with a gun. I live in Vegas.

Dont think this is massive breaking news here. We have lockdowns for gunman alot throughout the year.

In fact we had a school bus that got shot at by gang members last week as it was dropping off kids. Bullets went right through bus. That did not even make the national news.

How can people even imagine doing things like this? My thoughts and prayers are with the families during there sad time.

"When will our children stop being terroized in the saftey of their schools?"

Answer: When children stop having access to guns. When will parents start putting guns in secure safes. Not cabinets, etc. Yes there are instances of adults going into schools, but come one, where are these freshmen, etc getting guns? In their homes!

Second....lock the bump bars for school once classes start. This allows kids out but no one in. Leave one access open with a school resource officer (i.e. cop) located there.

Third: what has happened to the way kids are raised? Both parents work expecting their children to be rasied by teachers or daycare.

When will our children stop being terroized in the saftey of their schools. Heavy hearts go out to the families and people of Pa. We feel your suffering here in Colorado.
