School shooting in Lancaster, PA, Amish school

[lyonn]

CNN is reporting some dead and some wounded. It is a one room school house and about 10 shots fired inside. Gun man shot self.

Our poor country is spazzing out! So sad.

These damn repubs have totally screwed with the logic of this country. All this crap about the religious right, bush is a strong leader, signing statements that allows bush to do as he and his damn well pleases, our dear soldiers dying for his lies, on and on.....

3. This seems especially sad, they teach peace!

Imagine being confined in a large open room and no escape.

The news of the weekend along with other school events, Las Vegas!

It is like we have lost direction, up is down, black is white.

Condi playing stupid is too unbelievable. All those that get a few minutes of news a day get just enough info to wonder what the hell?!!

Damn, if the voting machines arn't totally rigged we Should get a least control of the House or Senate to stop this madness!

5. Not really...

There's been problems with drug manufacturing and drug dealing in the Amish community for quite a while.

(By the way, I'm quite close to the place where this occurred. Just so you don't think I'm some delusional wacko.)

6. Sad on many levels.

This can happen anywhere and what's scary is that I have a kid in an intermediate school that I have no idea of its security. Some whackjob pissed at life, wronged or hell bent with a vendetta can walk in and start firing. That's comforting to know.

This is so very sad. There is a large Amish community up here... this will probably hit them hard when they learn of it. Our hearts go out to the victims loved ones.

9. CNN now saying Gunman ordered all boys to leave, then started shooting

I didn't think it could get any more twisted.
