The contrast between her country and New Zealand is stark. We psychologically batter victims; New Zealand and other sane nations seek ways to heal them.

We can put a man on the moon. But we can't enact effective gun legislation. And we cannot provide effective healthcare (physical & mental). Figure that one out. This DIDN'T HAVE TO HAPPEN. More guns are not the answer. UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE & EFFECTIVE GUN CONTROL NOW!

Tragic.

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

And this is what the reality is many too many dying by suicide

This is so very heartbreaking. I lost my daughter in 2002 to suicide. PTSD is a killer. Prayers for her family. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

When will we accountable for what we have done to an entire generation of children school shootings then those that survive the pressure without getting shot at go on to massive debt delaying homes and families. And we wonder why they are depressed. Shame on us.

Add that to the pathetic monster’s murder total.

I am so sad for Sydney and her family - Sydney and her classmates deserve so much honor, respect and love for surviving that horrendous shooting at Marjory Stoneman and for standing up to gun violence - they all should know that they are better than the rest and hold their heads

Horrible.

so sad!

Supt Runcie, the Sheriff, and the school board helped kill every one of them, and now this girl, with the help of you media.

Suicide went up 30% in the last twenty years. Wish the poor girl received more help.

Crazy people should not have guns legally ....RIP

this is horrible 😞

Heartbreaking.

Suicide rates in this country are skyrocketing. But let's not change anything, everything is fine. 🙄

this is saddening, i cant even begin to fathom what she was dealing with, my thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends.

Well what did you expect to happen? The media drug the school, kids, and community though the leftest ringer...nothing good comes out of the Democratic Party, if people don’t understand that...you might be a democrat

We need to get these kids off all the drugs being pumped into them.

This sucks.

Suicide is one of the greatest problems facing the nation. Right behind drunk driving.

At least they are not just four years old, innocent and shot dead deliberately by an Israeli soldier?

🙁😢

Sad.

If only some of her classmates weren't off dancing with Ellen.....

Damn that’s sad.

😥

The media exploited her, you should be ashamed.

Yeah.. so what

Report: Sydney Aiello, who survived the Parkland high school shooting, dies by suicideSydney Aiello had been recently diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder and struggled with a fear of classroom settings, hindering her ability to attend college classes, Sydney's mother Cara Aiello said to a local TV station. Mass shootings keep on killing long after the act is over. How many will occur before USA decides it should have done what it took New Zealand (and Australia in 1996 as well) a matter of days to take away the weapons that produce mass shootings. She doesnt need a education now, She'll get paid the rest of her life to sit at home Oh bullshit.
