And to argue that trying to prevent such a tragedy as much as possible as foolish - downright idiotic.

That was directed at those who were brushing off the tragedy as no big deal and bragging about it here. You included yourself in my message and took it personal. Your choice. Your immature crap afterwards - 30,345 - congrats.

You keep telling me that I'm wrong, and throwing out the occasional passive aggressive insult. But you've yet to suggest a single way that this could be prevented. If we have to do SOMETHING as you've stated multiple times, surely you have one suggestion as to how we could prevent this tragedy? Right?

Passive aggressive? That's funny. See your rant of last night and your many insults and reread all of my posts regarding preparedness and prevention.

Btw, I'm as direct as they come. And remind me who said it could be prevented? I never said that, not once. What you're doing is a "turn." You're off topic clinging to a point no one is arguing because you think you could muddy a very clear discussion. Your solution to this problem is that nothing can be done. Well, if mankind had your attitude to such an important issue we'd all be cavemen dragging our women looking for fire because we wouldn't know how to make it ourselves. The problem is the problem. Solutions move us forward. Carry on with your "turn."

As I said earlier, one of the few bright spots is the attacker is still alive. My hope is both police and doctors will be able to learn more about what sets people off on these sprees when working with this kid.

A couple of weeks after the NewTown tragedy my 6-year-old came home and I asked her how her day was. She said they did a drill to hide in the classroom closets in case someone was "attacking" them. She then said all the kids hid in the closet and covered their heads with their hands. Only one problem she said - the closets didn't have doors and no one felt safe. New school, contemporary class design. Within a couple of months all classrooms had doors with deadbolts that can be locked.

Something can always be done to minimize danger in the event of the unknown.

I asked the same question three times and didn't get an answer, so I know when I'm pissing in the wind. Have fun calling island911 names.

Then you don't know how to read. And Island has called me a "beotch," "idiot," "monkey," "fool" and more - it's all here for everyone to see. None of which I replied back with name calling. You only see what you want to see. Pretty clear you like to win at all costs, no matter how lame your argument is. And it is extremely lame and OFF here. Preposterously off, and frankly, embarrassing. Seems you must be the official on every thread. Good luck with that. We don't ride horses and buggies anymore, btw.

You win. Feel better?
