>>IMHO, failing to protect the US citizens who were in Benghazi and then trying to cover up the terrorist attack that caused the deaths of 4 Americans is something that is worthy of an investigation. Apparently you think that this is no big deal. If one of those 4 Americans had been a friend or relative of yours you might think a little differently...
>4 people died in Bengazi. tragic and sad. 26 dies in the Sandy Point shooting and nothing got done about it.
>Think about that!

Peter, there have been changes (and I didn't realize until now that you live in CT). Some new laws were passed. Also, some schools across the U.S. took a more serious look at their safety measures.

It's very sad that it took a horrible tragedy to bring about such change. (And it's also sad that poor/absentee parenting is also at least a factor in tragedies such as that one, as well the Oregon tragedy). But to say "nothing got done about it" is not true.
