Same here lcrew. I've been stressing today waiting to hear back from my kids' schools about safety drills and the like. I heard that a number of school systems robo-called or issued statements to reassure parents....but not mine. So I emailed both my kids' teachers (1 in elementary school and 1 in middle school) just so I'd have some piece of mind. I did notice that the sheriff's office had a car parked at the elementary school this morning, and it wasn't running radar to write tickets.

FINALLY ABOVE the gnat line
Heartbreaking and disturbing.... The media was reporting every rumor. Those parents couldn't even turn on the TV without hearing about this - so those with little ones who needed to watch cartoons, couldn't possibly have been left alone with the TV on. Hope they had DVDs they could pop in the TV so the kiddos could enjoy themselves for awhile away from this constant reporting. Of course they've been talking about all the other shootings and Columbine. Rather surprising that no one's mentioned the Oklahoma City Bombing that killed all those children in the daycare center in the federal building.

I saw that yesterday Ed. Those people are twisted. Hopefully, the police are able to keep them far away from the funeral sites.

I heard about ^^ that story earlier, that sickens me nearly as much as the original story. Everything about that "church" is evil.

They picket in hopes of generating law-suit material to fund their hatred, and love high profile disasters and tragedies like this and soldier's funerals.

Oh, I found this:

http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/protest-westboro-baptist-church-erupts-185802032.html

After the Westboro Baptist Church suggested on Twitter its intention to picket the Newtown, Conn., site where 26 shooting victims died, including 20 children, hackers retaliated.

The reason for the protest? Reportedly because Connecticut has legalized same-sex marriage.

A tragedy like this should NEVER bring out more hatred, otherwise the criminal has won.

I think the Westwood Baptist people are just as sick as the shooter, just in a different way frown

So - in response, Anonymous - you know that group that we all hate(at least when our banks are being attacked or card services etc....) has hacked the WBC website and has released emails, addresses, names, and phone numbers of members grin

Great, thanks. The page keeps crashing while I try to sign, I hope that's a sign of an influx of signatures.

It crashed for me too. But then I got my email to sign up for an account, clicked through that and then was able to sign the petition.
