Former Connecticut Governor Dannel Malloy after receiving the 2016 John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award.Former Connecticut Governor Dannel Malloy after receiving the 2016 John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award.The horrific shooting in a Texas elementary school Tuesday had some terribly familiar elements for the families that lost children in the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut in 2012. Dannel Malloy was the governor at the time.
Hill: Let me ask you straight off the top here: What came across your mind yesterday as you learned of these events in Texas?Eerie similarities … The initial reports were one or two people shot. I used to be a prosecutor in New York City, in Brooklyn, and generally that would mean it was a domestic — that somebody came to the school to kill, you know, one person. And that's exactly what I had heard that day in December of 2012. You know, the first report was one person and then another.
Yeah, I'm not sure I would say anything to Governor Abbott. I have had conversations with people who've gone through the similar situation that we did, or like situations that we did in Newtown. I think that we, as a nation, are not doing enough to protect our children or our fellow citizens.
It's funny how people have highly trained and armed security to protect the financial system, but not the children gathered together
