Another school shooting. Is it up to almost one a week now? There really isn't a perfect solution, because each situation is completely different from the other.

Stay safe. See something, say something.

Most of these incidents have been in public schools. This is a private, religious school. Seems that no school is safe. JMO

I have no words. Three little children dead in a small private Christian school. This time.

It feels like it’s an everyday occurrence. There’ll be a next time soon.

Whatever could be the motive. There’s never an answer that could be acceptable for shooting and killing little children at school.

I truly have nothing to say, I’m just mourning.

Watch Live Here is a live stream from WSMV 4 NBC in Nashville. IMO-it sounds like the 2 children and now 2 adults who have passed does not include the shooter. It sounds like what the news reporters are saying to me anyway. This link will be airing a press conference soon.
