Seems no cares about them...
Dr. William Begg, the ER doctor, saw Sandy Hook victims much sooner than 12 hours, as soon as they could be whisked away in an ambulance.

I care about them but I didn't know they were suffering. I can't even imagine what they saw.

Uh, Dr William Begg isn't the coroner now is he? The article said coroner's and it still doesn't change anything I said. How about the police officers who were there, when bodies were strewn about, 5 yr olds screaming at the top of their lungs, scared, urinating/defecating in their pants, blood everywhere, shell casings, brain matter on the wall, et al?

Dr William Begg didn't see, nor experience any of this. He was in his nice warm, comfortable ER room. He had water, food, comfort and was SAFE.

The officers who responded to that scene had NONE OF IT. They had to go in there, put their lives on the line, suffer the emotional trauma, shut up, and get on with it. All for about 1/4 th of what Dr William Begg makes.

I'll stand for those officers thank you.

Criminals dont have empathy. They dont care about peoples emotions, or how they might feel. Liberals dont seem to understand this. Practical, unemotional solutions need to be taken to protect children NOW.

There were only two people taken to the ER from Sandy Hook that day. Only two wounded. I'm not sure why the newscaster is saying that the ER was "overwhelmed with victims" that day. It's simply not true.

It's MSNBC, you've got a better chance of getting the truth from MTV or Spike than from MSNBC.

The man clearly told quite a few lies during his little speech, I guess fact checking it's allowed any more.

"Riveting" is not the word I would use.

You seem to have forgotten they lay in the school overnight. They weren't 'whisked' anywhere.

Whisked? Riveting? Oh, I get it! It's a word game.

That goofy redhead is Lawrence O'Donnell, pundit at MSNBC. He ain't no newscaster.

He's about as far from credible as anyone could possibly be.

Yeah because nobody in the whole wide world would believe a place like Illinois has any type of violence.
Just ask the mayor of Chicago, you can find him setting up roadblocks in chick fil a drive thrus.

Dr. Begg, the Emergency Room doctor at nearby Danbury Hospital, treated two of the children who did not survive their gun wounds. I think that is what he found so shattering.
