Heroism

I have seen true heroism in those teachers who were killed trying to save their pupils, whether it be under the desk, in the cupboard or trying to shield the children from the killer.

So sad, that for 20 parents there will be an empty place at the table, presents with no child to unwrap and for loved ones pain of knowing their child was taken from them by someone who was unstable.

For the teachers, I am sure you will be remembered in years to come and hopefully there won't be another occasion for such a terrible sacrifice.

Lots of anger abound, but anger doesn't bring back anyone, nor does hatred. School should be a safe place, not a killing ground and guns/lnives should be never treated as weapons by or against children.. only then will they be safe
