school shooting

Many of you probably saw a note posted on Facebook by Morgan Freeman, regarding the Newtown, CT shootings. It was very inspirational, and from the heart.

If you are searching for someway to grieve for the victims of Friday's school shooting in Newtown, CT, there will be a candlelight vigil tonight at the Grace Episcopal Church in New Bedford. The vigil begins at 7pm.

How do you explain the unexplainable to children? Today, parents across the country, including myself, were faced with this  -- fumbling over words while explaining the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown - located only 20 miles away from my own daughter's elementary school.

Today I noticed a lot of Faceook posts of people copying and posting pictures of candles, and messages of sympathy. While that is great, to me, it doesn't get to the people who actually need messages of hope and love.

As many of us mourn the tragic loss of life that was caused by a shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, some are using it to get political. A big gun-control debate took place today following the tragic events.Here are some of the tweets that went out...

President Obama took to the podium on Friday afternoon, and is tone was very somber.

I can't even wrap my mind around this: a shooting in a Kindergarden classroom in a small elementary school in Connecticut.

This is certainly the most horrific tragedy this year. I cannot begin to imagine the horror for the families and people involved in what has transpired in CT.

Reports are coming in that there are 27 deaths, including the gunman, at a school shooting at Sand Hook elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut.
