The gunman
shoots to death
19 children
in an elementary school
in Texas
and then turns the gun
on himself.
Editor's Note: The specific circumstances of the death of the shooter at the scene of Robb Elementary School had not yet been clarified by authorities at the time of the posting of this poem. Since then, authorities have announced that the gunman was killed by law enforcement officers.
