Random Wednesday Morning Thoughts





Sandy Hook was not exactly 10 years ago. December 14, 2012 to be exact. But you get the point. 


  • Again, indeed.

  • At least 19 dead children. 2 dead teachers. And nothing will change.  I've said it before: If 20 dead children at Sandy Hook didn't give America a wake up call, nothing will. And, sadly, this won't either. 
  • DPS said this morning the dead children were all in the same 4th grade classroom. I'm sick. 
  • DPS also said this morning that it was an AR-15 "style" weapon used by the 18 year old shooter. He bought two of them on his 18th birthday according to his now deleted Instagram account. It was easy. That weapon of death should sound familiar. It's always an AR-15.

  • Well armed, the teenage killer fought his way into the school.  Credit to the DPS spokesman for being so candid with Anderson Cooper last night. 
  • Ted Cruz, John Cornyn, and Greg Abbott are scheduled to be there, too.

     
  • They should be playing and laughing today. Instead their parents are shopping for little coffins.

    • Oh, there's more. Many more. Don't look away.
