At Least Six Dead in Amish School Shooting

[Bill 213]

Now they're saying only three kids died and the shooter.  Seven more had injuries and three of those seven were in critical condition.  Totally sad to see this stuff.  Especially on the Amish out of anyone, that's what's so uncanny about this situation.

? Really I think it's going to come to the point where it's gonna basically be like a prison.? Controlled entry and exit from the facility and an escort/pass system for all visitors.? A good chunk of small city schools don't have metal detectors even though that was the big solution before.? However it still wouldn't stop something like this.? I've been past that school and it's literally nothing but a one room building.? It's sad it's come to this security wise, but you have to fight fire with fire.?

My sons schools are like that.  They are locked in once everyone arrives and if I go there, I have to be escorted to where I am going.  It's a pain in the ass, but what's the other option?

I don't think that would even stop someone though.  you can't have multiple/armed security guards in every school...its just impossible.

two more of the kids died bringing the total dead to 5.  I don't see how the other kids are going to survive and/ore be normal if they do......i would imagine a head shot via execution style is fairly lethal

the whole thing is just so senseless.

today are the funerals for the 5 children. really sad stuff. total dead will likely be 6 real soon as one of the others is not doing well.

interesting people though....they had about 1,500 people from the community at each of the viewings. and families are urging forgiveness. they have even reached out to the family of the killer to offer support and convince them to stay local.

classy move by Gov. Rendell - he put restrictions on news coverage and implemented a no-fly zone to ensure privacy for the community today during the funerals.

Guess who's going to picket the funerals?

Everybody's favorite pastor, Fred Phelps.

You may remember him. He runs http://www.godhatesfags.com

Yes, he's saying the Amish deserved to die because they were going to Hell and God hates them.

I thought they agreed not to do that in exchange for an hour of publicity on fox?

I must have missed that. My professor told me they were going to picket but that was on Monday, things may have changed.

Blair is the pits. So I'll take that as a rhetorical question.
