First heard about it.

I remember my teacher informed my class of it and I remember this girl having this horrified look on her face and her saying "Oh my God" and a few moments later she said "Why would someone do that?"

When I was hearing about the shooting everywhere, from the news to students at high school, I remember being nothing but confused at everyone's response, because I remember the Civil War in Syria was raging at the time, and I remember the death toll being something like 100000 civilian deaths. And given America's lack of a emotional response to such a death toll, I was initially confused by the country's response. Everyone was crying about the dead kids, and I'm just like "Well what about the dead kids in Syria?"
