  1. At least one adult knew, and yet noting was done

  2. Who is going to leak the identities?

  3. Metal detectors & armed security guards should be at all public schools!

  4. The only guilty ones here are the parents.

  5. Is the teacher dead?. Not one word from teacher or her family.

  6. My kids are out school they didn't go to Harrisburg pa schools and live in Carlisle pa either

  7. All Attorney's "my client is innocent".
    Is there anyone who believes an Attorney's comments ? Anyone ? Anyone ?

  8. If this kid was in a place that was best suited for his circumstances this wouldn't have happened.

  9. Why wasn't the cops called from the very beginning?

  10. we need to just make it so that if your kid uses your weapon to assault someone, you just don;t get to have weapons anymore.
    As apparently you don't know how to properly secure them, let alone teach your kids to respect them.

  11. Meanwhile in real news…. hunter admits his laptop is real. The context the media told us was a lie

  12. Believe Nothing you hear, little you read, 'only some of what you see.
    Oboma is the savior
    no, no Oboma is the anti-Christ, 'Trump is the savior.
    Eggs are bad for you – eggs are good for you.
    No new taxes / Plenty of new taxes.
    Now the Principal chimes in ………..

  13. Typical scammer american B S! The fact that they could get any sort of warning of a gun in a 6 year olds posession and claim to do NOTHING about it is so far fetched its unreal! I can understand the teacher is upset….but lets be real! Public school is a hectic joke! Why would she even bother to sue the school !!!??? The parents OF THE 6 YEAR OLD BOY have to be charged! How are they just skating through this!? Why do I just have this aching feeling that if my six-year-old brought a gun to school and shot his teacher that I would be the one to blame? Why? how are those parents not being held responsible for anything?

  14. This case is one of the most bizarre and tragic. I think there is more to this but the child depended on the adults and they failed.

  15. Do conservatives teach their children to trust strangers ? I ask because they seem to trust them with weapons that can wipe out an entire classroom of children in an instant.
