murdered children to release photos in orders to show the reality of assault rifles on children's bodies. But I can understand the reluctance of family to do that.

Instead, a group of screenwriters, producers, and directors could do a very realistic movie based on real life accounts of school massacres. Start with parents sending the kids off in the morning and follow it through from several perspectives - parents, responders, teachers and children inside the school taking shelter and protecting each other. Show details without holding back - initial shock inside the school as they realize what's happening and follow their lockdown drill. Hiding, fear, silence, trembling. Students inside a room where the shooter begins the attack. Show the kids' bodies bouncing around on impact, the decapitation, the blood, and the horror on survivors' faces as they see their teacher and classmates gunned down.

Show the classroom scene as it appears later to responders when they enter. Show the parents going about business as usual until the news of the attack goes public. Show them racing to the school and trying to break through barriers to rescue their children.

Let people see the horrorr and gore from all perspectives and publicize that the scenes are realistic, based on actual incidents.
