That is absolutely ridiculous. How does someone kill somebody that is coming to save lives?

It's absolutely crazy, makes you wonder it they might have set the fire in the first place.

It's not unheard of at all for criminals to attack first responders in the hopes of covering up another crime.

I can't say (Obviously, I wasn't there), but that's what it looks like to me at first glance.

I'm sorry this happened but we must remember, in a country this large and with a population only smaller than Asian and south American countries, things like this are going to happen, people have their sense of proportion all skewed.

What a great coincidence that all of the gun control issues that obuma has brought in and now for months straight all you hear about is shootings and guns in schools.
