I went to school with Christina. We were not as close as some but close enough to know that she shouldn’t have died like this…and especially at this age..no one should. No one really knows the true story, nevertheless, it is still a sad one. My heart is in so much pain for Christina and her family. I offer my sincerest sympathy.

Jonica Walston said ” But, no, you can’t blame the kids.”

Yes I can… and I do. 17yrs old, in ROTC, lying to cover her tracks – this girl knew exactly what she was doing. Should the gun have been locked up? Absolutely. But it was on a 12ft high shelf – sure a lot of effort for an accidental shooting.

Bullying disgusts me – I lived with it as a kid. BUT I have never killed anyone or been tempted to, so please don’t use it as an excuse. Decisions were made and now consequences (by all) must be faced.

If there had not been a gun in the house this story would not be in the news and one person would not be dead, and the life of the other messed up for life. And you object to a doctor asking if there are guns in the house. Doctors are interested in the protection of citizens and especially the children of our community, state, and country.

Should be an inquiry of the school system and family services. Protection from bullying and lack of social service support is beyond belief.
We can fund law enforcement with $$$$ in the name of public safety and let this type of situation go without reasonable support.

You can’t judge the girl, either of them, honestly for this. An argument gets heated the more words are said. Wether it’s over the phone or in person; the pain is still pain. If the two girls were fighting, and one had ROTC training, she knew what she was doing. Yes, that is wrong for her to use it in this way. But, no, you can’t blame the kids. The parents should have had the gun locked up and the safety on. Bullying, ridacule, this sort of thing drives girls to be homicidal. It messes up their sense of who is and who isn’t a threat. Of what is and isn’t right. You say she knew right and wrong? It’s called self preservation. She lied to cover her own tail. Not knowing right and wrong. She was confused, upset and obviously in mourning. Duh. :/ It’s a shame things get this far, honestly. If kids would stop bullying based off of clothes, race, religion, size, weight, musical preferrence; we could stop things like this from happening.

i never would of guessed things would go down like this, i knew elana in school and n the ROTC prgram at northview, she was definitely a very troubled girl, she had her good moments but she was very troubled….i also know that she was tormented daily at school, and i tried to be good friends with elana,now im not sayiing that her being bullied gives her the excues to kill someone, but have u noticed that different stories that get put on the internet or on the news dealing with teenagers killing, theres always a story behind it saying that, that child was bullied and tormented….now people, bullying really needs to stop, if bullying would stop this community…this country would be so much better…….. i try my very best every day to help those who are bullied, cause ik how it feels to be bullied, ive been bullied since the 5th grade and trust me it isnt fun….so lets all take a stand and help those who are hurting, who knows maybe we can actually prevent something like this …

Elena and me were not good friends, She talked bad about my dead mother., So i blocked her out. Her sister i barley knew., but she was a good kid. Elena deserves whatever she has coming for her. :/ R.I.P. Christina.
