as for the school...i have to think all schools must do something in regards to having all access blocked during the day. in a former job, i had to go into schools. i'd say i went into a variety of schools dozens of times, and not once did anyone ever question why i was there. that needs to change. they said lanza broke a window to gain access to the school. i think all admins need to take a look at their buildings and do what's needed to bar access to every person who might want to get in and do harm. businesses are taking more steps every day, whether it's key pads on doors, gates, cameras, etc.
but yeah, we don't have the capacity to stop every thing that could possibly happen...and that is what frustrates people the most. life is random, evil is as well. hopefully more people will be more willing to step up and say 'hey, this guy needs help'.

Unfortunately the media has been their usual irresponsible selves, so I'm not really sure if he broke a window, or shot through the locked doors as I had read.
But yeah, having access into schools should be something to look at. But then when you look at the movie theatre shooting and the mall shootings...obviously that doesn't work.
Stricter gun control laws would though. No reason for anyone not in the military to have access to some of these weapons, IMO.
