RedEye's Week in Review Dedicated to the Victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School Shootings

Child victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings in Newton
It's been one week since 20 year old  Adam Lanza shot his mother, Nancy Lanza, four times in the head as she lay in her bed with her perfectly legal gun.
It's been one week since 20 year old Adam Lanza shot and killed 20 innocent 6 and 7 year old boys and girls, with his mothers perfectly legal gun, at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newton, Conn., which prior to this incident, was called the safest places in America.
It's been one week since 20 year old Adam Lanza shot and killed school  principal Dawn Hochsprung, psychologist Mary Sherlach,  teachers Victoria Soto (27), Rachael 'Avino (29), Laureen Rousseau (30), and Ann Marie Murphy (52) , before taking his own life with his mothers perfectly legal gun.
It's been one week since President Obama called for Americans to keep up the pressure for tighter gun control,with the goal of preventing, not to be confused with eliminating, future massacres, prompting an economic stimulus for gun/ammunition dealers and manufactures, and a call by some to arm teachers/principals/staff.
It's been one long, sorrow filled week.
