Default Re: School shooting in Connecticut

...


I had heard about this tragedy on the radio while conducting business in Hollywood this morning, and had just parked my car on Santa Monica Blvd across the street from an elementary school. A red pickup truck was slowly traveling the opposite way with a Santa Clause standing in the bed. I had just exited my vehicle as the pickup made a right-turn into the school yard, and my eyes then noticed that several classes were lined-up out front in the playground with their teachers and what appeared to be parents too. Someone announced on a megaphone "Here comes Santa everyone. Let's welcome Santa..." wherein all of the children started yelling Santa' name and cheering for him.

Then I thought back to those children in Connecticut whose Xmas was taken away from them today. Had to grab a Keenex you know?

Early this afternoon, I picked up my 16 yr old daughter from school on her short day. As she got in the car, I gave her an extra special big hug and told her that I loved her. We hit Jack n the Box thereafter and enjoyed some lunch and some extra time together.

Our prayers go out to those that lost a special loved one this morning...

Sounds like the shooter's Mother was the teacher in the classroom where he did the most damage....haven't heard if this has been confirmed yet though.

That is also what I heard - and that she was also one of those now dead.
