I feel sick.

ABC news reporting a much higher number of deceased, but I haven't seen that elsewhere.

I am so sad and so so so angry.

[abs]

I hate this. Those poor babies.

But nothing we can do but offer thoughts and prayers, right?! Maybe suggest good guys with guns?? God I hate it here and wish we could just overturn the second amendment entirely.

[estrellita]

Fuck everything. I'm so angry and sad and sick of this. But we'll just keep on doing the same old thing because MaH GuNz R MoRe ImPorTaNt 🙄😡

[litasail]

Babies.

[irishbride2]

ABC is saying 14 kids and one teacher, plus the shooter and his grandma are dead.

[lea]

This year will mark the 10 year anniversary of Sandy Hook and we haven’t fucking changed.

[suburbanzookeeper]

Just saw the update saying 14 dead. I have no words.

[mcppalmbeach]

I don’t know what else there is to say. These babies. The horror. The shooter was a baby himself. 14 children. Jesus God in heaven:

[Deleted]

I'm sick to my stomach. I knew when we didn't do a damn thing about guns after Sandy Hook that we never would. I doubt this will change anything. Those poor families. I can't even imagine.

[suzyp]

Fuck Greg Abbott. 15 fucking people dead - 14 kids and a teacher. I don't want to hear a thing from his mouth.

[dove]

Dear God.
If they didn't do anything about white babies dying in sandy hook, you think they're gonna give a fuck about these brown babies in Uvalde?

I just got home from teaching at my school and heard the news. My heart is so heavy. This is not my local area but it’s not terrible far from my geographical area and I am very familiar with the town and the area. This is a small close knit town. This is so devastating.

[sofamonkey]

Oh holy shit. What the fuck. This is beyond horrific. I feel so awful for these families.

[imimahoney]

I just have no words.

[pixy0stix]

There is no fucking reason that this should keep happening. Absolutely no fucking reason.

[neverfstop]

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

[curbsideprophet]

Fuck it all. Fuck Ted Cruz tweeting his thoughts and prayers.

[Velar Fricative]

Fuck this country. It’s about to get worse with an imminent gun rights decision by SCOTUS.

Those poor families. It’s sickening.

[bcv513]

I have no words. This is heartbreaking. How many times does this have to happen before something gets done

[cherry1111]

Where were all the fucking good guys with guns to stop this?

[pugz]

Fuck this fucking godforsaken country

[1yeartogo]

Completely senseless. I can’t even imagine what those parents and families are experiencing. There are no words.

[abs]

This is already being spun as an immigrant problem and not a gun problem.

OMG those poor babies. They were in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade. Innocent babies.

This cannot keep happening.

[karinothing]

Ugh horrific. It's not only guns. Wtf is wrong with young males in this country.

As this new broke I was discussing how a kid at a local HS was murdered during an off campus fight at lunch today.

The fuck?

[isabel]

This made my heart stop for a beat, which doesn’t happen often with shootings anymore. I don’t even know what to say though.

[pugz]

The Senate needs to fucking pass something. Sinema and Manchin get the FUCK on board.

[W.T.Faulkner]

So I guess we’re just doing this shit every week now?
