In response to people trying to place blame on police, the school and anyone else they can find a finger to point at is terrible. No one except the man who pulled the trigger is to blame. No one forced him physically to pull that trigger and take 30+ lives, it was him and only him.

No one knows exactly how they will react in a time of crisis, and to call the police cowards and so forth is completely uncalled for. Those police officers, EMTs, and school officials, regardless of what we saw or heard on television, risked their lives that day and did the best they could to protect and save as many lives as possible. It's unfair to criticize what you've seen or heard with out having actually been there. It was a terrible scene and no doubt adrenaline, and fear ran rampant.

I think instead of criticizing and focusing so heavily on what happened, which we can't change, we should focus on how we can prevent such a tragedy from occuring again.
