The world is without a doubt full of psychos roaming around and as a psychology student, I understand that some people have mental disorders and at times, crimes can fall under the insanity defense but to target and kill 20 innocent children is just plain inhumane.
The only question people can ask is "why?"
Watching the videos and reading the different articles surfacing online, I can't help but cry seeing the terror and shock in the faces of the students and parents. You send your child to school for them to get an education in order to have a bright future and school at that young age is a sanctuary to many kids. Now what? How long will it take for these young children to get over the fear and trauma of such a horrible incident? To be able to walk back into those halls without remembering the lives that were taken away so horribly?
How can it not impair their own cognition? They have been robbed of their innocence.
To the children who saw their friends & teachers being killed, who saw the pools of blood on the floor, who's bodies were covered in blood splatter. The kids who had bullets just nearly missing them.
My heart goes out to all you and to the families and loved ones affected. I know what it's like to lose a loved one with no warning, with no chance to really say goodbye. My deepest condolences.
May those beautiful children rest in peace.
