Quoting: Neo81xxx You are right, we are not allowed to think independently, just like we are not allowed to take care of our body, that makes one a threat to the hard working folks at FDA, big pharma, CIA, white house, etc, etc |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1199093 United States 12/17/2012 09:26 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It does seem the family was split in half after the divorce. The brothers did not speak from what I understand. While the father still saw Adam, he was not in his life much judging from reports. Before the divorce, did they prep as a family? Or, did she start prepping, and in a sense that was in part one of the problems in the marriage? Or is prepping something that started after the divorce? Was she becoming paranoid? I mean you can be a prepper without being paranoid to the point of not functioning well in society. I assume all preppers are a little paranoid, in a good way I guess. But was she beginning to not function well herself? She didn't seem to be working full time. While she didn't have a shocking number of firearms in my opinion, it is probably a bit on the unusual side for a single upper middle class mom. I am not sure if she was crazy, but I would not discount based on some of what I have heard, that there may have been a bit of mental illness in the family to start with. Also, where are the grandparents, aunts, and uncles of Adam? |

Now I read that she herself was once a stock broker. I figure that actually she was in a very good position to know that our national financial situation is very precarious. The fact that she went to the steps of actual physical prepping speaks volumes to me. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30132284 I am very sorry that her son did what he did, but I don't think that Nancy Lanza was a loon. agree100% |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 628775 Canada 12/17/2012 10:04 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ^This^ Taking a mentally unbalanced person to the shooting range and teaching them how to use a gun is absolutely irresponsible parenting. Keeping guns in the home with a mentally unstable person is doubly so. I'm not against gun owners, just irresponsible ones. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 30146496 United States 12/17/2012 12:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In my original post, I wanted to point out how much access she had to financial information and how she herself was once a financial professional. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30146496 I bet she had a shit load of gold. I wonder how many people knew about that? Hmmm. Hadn't thought about that. Good point. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 15993935 Netherlands 12/17/2012 12:33 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | considering your own government has encouraged preparedness as seen in this advert Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30065240 crazy? if so we all are! There is a difference between preparing as a precaution(which is normal and does not go the lengths that some prepper tards go to) and preparing by teaching your mentally unstable kid to use guns. And then not securing them enough so that your mentally unstable kid can access them. Crazy? Yes. |
