Many people died this past week, THIS IS A SHOUTOUT TO ALL those who past away: Larissa Araya, people who were killed at the mall shootings, and the 27 kindergardeners, school staff and parents of the shooter at Sandyhook.#newton#memorial#sandyhook#teachers#pray#likethis#kindergarden#innocent#shooting #cancer#heart #bone#sad- i'm a first time mom and all of this is making my heart ache really badly. i just can't imagine what they are having to go through now. i just hope and pray that everything will get better and that their families will be blessed in the long run. but the good lord has called up 26 new angels and the angels up there are singing high and mighty for these new angels. and let the boy who did this rot in hell. he deserves it. let the ones in heaven walk the beautiful streets of gold and rest in peace. love from austell, ga.

Funerals in Newtown are ongoing, and Mr. Gregory has displayed overwhelming insensitivity and shortsightedness by introducing bills to expand gun rights so you can carry in Church and schools before he's even sworn into office. Dr. Barge supports the ludicrous position that armed guards in elementary schools will help prevent further tragedies. Did it help in Columbine? Did it help at Virginia Tech? I wonder if these men would display such insensitivity if it were there children. Absolutely shameful.more2012-12-22T16:20:38.019Z

I'm a mother and I can't think of a thing that would calm me right now, if I was either of these parents. My tears and felt pain can only wish and hope for the best for the families left behind.
