Being a high school student and hearing about this, it really makes you fearful. My heart breaks for those people that lost their lives and for those who are forced to mourn. Those poor kids never got to experince many of the joys that life had to offer. My condolences to their families and may God watch over their souls.

멍청이의 마음 가슴에 품었던 피붙이를 잃은 마음에 누가 불을 던지겠는가? 어느 감히 용기 있는 자가 주둥이를 여는가? 한탄하라, 세상은 항상 누군가의 피를 갈망하는데 나는 물론이오. 내 자식이 아닐 수 있겠을까. 내 대신 살았으면 천배만배 좋았을텐데 내가 그 곳에 있어 그 놈 자식을 찢어 발겼으면 했을텐데 모두가 애도를 표할 때 누군가는 아이들을 난자한 쇠붙이에게만 눈이 쏠렸구나. 머리를 조아려라. 세상은 당신이 살아온 그 이상으로 기괴하고 비틀어지기도 했으니 시간이 지난 지금은 그대들 가슴이 평온으로 돌아왔기를 바라는 멍청하기 짝이 없는 머리로 내 일이 아닌데도 끼어드는 이 손을 용서해달라 그렇게 비누노.

We must prevent this repetitive situations. First the gunfire. Then the dying kids. Finally blaming media. I still can't believe that the twenty kids died in this tragedy. Actually , other people who passed away from this nonsense were the children of somebodies. So it looks like 'the twenty-eight children has been gone forever.' is the more accurate sentence but it doesn't matter. What is important is we have to STOP this right now. People of Sandy Hook DO NOT LET THIS BE FORGOTTEN BY PEOPLE. Make the voices of yours. There's hundreds... millions... billions of people who care about this horrible gun violence. Ask the senators and the president for the gun violence precautions. We need a fundamental solution of this problem. This problem is not just a problem of gun or violent video games. It's a really complicated and tangled problem. Bully, poverty, lack of interest to children, bad parenting and the other things are involved in this. Dear People of Sandy Hook I know you are having a bad time. As I said before, people actually care about this including me. I hope you people overcome this. Stay strong and may god bless you all. Sincerely, Judd

There were 27 ANGELS attended that Sandy Hook school and I do not think it should be destroyed..Rename the school in their honor to read ANGELS of Sandy Hook Elementary School and let it live on as a memoriam of the lost lives..................Respectfully Submitted, lucy016@yahoo.com

잘 몰랐습니다. 잘 모릅니다. 이 재앙에 대해 저는 알지 못했습니다. 제가 있는 곳에서 부터 너무나 먼 곳이었고 단어 몇개 만을 듣고는 어떻게 왜 이런일이 일어났는지 알수없었습니다. 오늘에서야 알았습니다. 지금에서야 느끼고 있습니다. 슬프다,안타깝다,불쌍하다 그리고 아쉽다. 희생당한 소중한 아이들, 그 아이들을 지금의 저는 알지못하지만 시간이 흐른 어느날에,그 아이들이 그 시간속에 있을수 있었다면 그 아이와 저는 무언가를 위해 만나고 이야기하고 마음을 나누고 함께 걸어갈수있을수도 있었을꺼라는걸 알고있기 때문입니다. 아이들의 부모님들. 제가 알고있는 가장 큰 절망과 고통이라해도 당신들이 지금 느끼고 있는 마음의 상처에 비하면 티끌보다 못할것을 알고 있습니다. 많이 우십시오. 참지말고 버티려 하지말고 많이많이 우십시오 그리고 그 슬픔만큼 세상에 사랑을 전해주십시오. 그렇게 세상에 전해지는 사랑이 닿은곳 그 자리에 당신의 아이들은 항상 함께 할것입니다. 힘내세요,사랑하세요 아이들의 몫까지. 그리고 항상 건강하세요.

To the citizens of Newtown,
I don't think I can properly describe the grief and sadness I feel for your town. My heart literally shattered into a broken pieces the day I first heard the news of what happened out there. It's something I really don't understand. It all seems so surreal; like something you'd see on TV or in a movie. I can't fathom how someone would want to cause harm to innocent children like that. I don't really know what else I can say that would make anyone of you feel any better. Just know that I'm very, very sorry this happened to your town and my thoughts and prayers are with you. I will never forget the lives that were taken so senselessly. You all have a long road of recovery and rebuilding ahead of you but keep in mind that you are not alone...the world is here with you. Keep your heads up and keep smiling because that is what I'm sure those twenty-six people would've wanted you to do. Do that and they all would not have not died in vain.
Much love to you all
"Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it’s breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
you’ll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll see the sun come shining through
for you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness Although a tear may be ever so near
That’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile what’s the use of crying
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you’ll just
Smile"

Hello. My name is Grace H. When I heard about the tragedy, I was deeply saddened and shocked that someone would do something like this. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Many others as well as myself may not be able to understand what you are going through, but we are still here to give you our hearts and our support. My dad died a few years ago of a heart attack and I like to think that he along with many other souls held the children as they came into heaven. I don't believe that God wanted this to happen of planned for this to happen. But the children and the adults are all in heaven and they are with the angels. When I turn 14 on May 10th, I'll also be thinking of Jessica, who shared my birthday. Also remember that you're never alone because our whole nation and many people around the world are mourning along with you.
