Re: School shooting in Newtown CT-Breaking on Fox News
Hi. I am in Central CT. And has been on all news and radio all day. I have been reading this thread throughout the day it is possible I missed a few pages. Here is what I am thoroughly confused about. NBC affiliates on Kiss 95.7 and all the other stations announced his name and said he had killed his father in Hoboken and drove to CT . Now dad is in Stamford. and was told about it by reporters. So who is dead in NJ ???? they reported the body found in the house. The repeated themselves 3 times and announced Ryan Lanza (who is now Adam).And dad was dead.first. So who is dead in NJ !?????

That is foolish a revolver can shoot faster than a semi auto.
A revolver fires as fast as you pull the trigger a semi you have to wait for it to cycle which takes a fraction of a second.

I wasn't trying to be mean. But think about it, what makes for a better story, 20 white kindergarten kids mowed down in a nice peaceful area or 20 black kids named deshaun, jakory, latasha, being mowed down in a poor city?

A former school board official in Newtown called into question earlier reports that Nancy Lanza had been connected to Sandy Hook Elementary School, possibly as part of the teaching staff.

“No one has heard of her,” said Lillian Bittman, who served on the local school board until 2011. “Teachers don’t know her.”

Re: School shooting in Newtown CT-Breaking on Fox News
Someone touched on this on another blog. The problem has little to do with gun control, it's the fact that we have deinstitutionalized the mentally ill. Years ago, the mentally ill with violent or erratic tendencies were locked up. In today's PC world, we treat them with a court ordered short term stay at a state mental hospital and then send them home with Abilify or Clozaril and expect them to be compliant with their meds and blend in-with minimal outpatient involvement. There's no doubt that this kid was a ticking time bomb, and apparently everyone in the neighborhood knew it. And for those of you who think this is an insensitive view, get a job at a state psych hospital. I worked for a state hospital in KY as an RN a couple years back. I had a Schizophrenic guy that was cool with me and polite but I had found out he was having some major delusions about me and was plotting some sort of weird attack. This was brought to staff's attention by other patients. Bottom line is: you cannot trust paranoid schizophrenics for a minute. Turn your back on them and see what happens. I have no doubt that this kid was seriously ill and should have been committed a LONG time ago.

Great post AC. Imagine how many less people would be on this site if all truly mentally ill people were in a psych ward.

Re: School shooting in Newtown CT-Breaking on Fox News
Don't say that the gun shop owner has to sell to anyone just because it is not against the law. I think the shop owner can refuse to sell to anyone.

Also I guess should be needed is a mental health evaluation before being able to purchase such weapons, and the age raised to age 25, and any type of semi-automatic or automatic weapon to age 30. That does not garanttee anything but it may help. To many disturbed people who want to actually feel emotions and live them instead of just acknowledging them.


If using emotions as a basis for any evaluation then you are not using all of your mental facaulties.

Connecticut Newtown Elementary School Shooting Police Audio

X11ATOM11X·19 videos
Published on Dec 14, 2012
Dressed in black fatigues and a military vest, a heavily armed man walked into a Connecticut elementary school Friday and opened fire, shattering the quiet of this southern New England town and leaving the nation reeling at the number of young lives lost.

Within minutes, 26 people were dead at Sandy Hook Elementary School -- 20 of them children. Among the six adults killed were Dawn Hochsprung, the school's beloved principal, and school psychologist Mary Sherlach.

The shooter, identified by three law enforcement officials as 20-year-old Adam Lanza, also was killed, apparently by his own hand.

I wouldn't say its weird. Ryan was at work and leaves work to find all that on his FB. He posted there his innocence. The twitter wasn't his brothers but another Ryan Lanza. Probably had NO idea at the time that his family was involved until he arrived home. Don't know the kid nor am I standing up for him and how he responded, but I know I probably would freak out too if I was being called a murderer and being told to rot in hell and die. I just don't think we can jump to conclusions until we know all sides. What his brother did was HORRIBLE and UNSPEAKABLE. Those poor children in that school, their teachers, and their families are what we really need to keep on our hearts. We should also remember that the victims of the man who did this horrible act aren't their son or brother. They are hurting too and will probably receive so much ridicule and loss because they were simply related to a murderer. Just keep it all in perspective guys. My prayers go to all the families. I work with kids and can't imagine losing one of them.
 Quoting: anonymousgirl 22104187


Well, it's a little weird. I mean, if I'm so connected to Facebook, I must, by extension, be connected to the internet a lot as well. He would have known about the incident already. If someone said a perpetrator was identified with my name, killed people in my hometown, at my mother’s place of work, and I had a sibling with a severe developmental problem (who might have my ID), I might think there was some connection there (as would everyone else I know). Defending my Facebook reputation would not be the first thing I’d be concerned with. Just sayin'.
