There may be far more to Sandy Hook incidents than guns
Coach is Right ^ | 12/16/12 | Suzanne Eovaldi

Posted on 12/16/2012 10:10:45 AM PST by Oldpuppymax

As Democrats and Progressives use this enormous tragedy as the tag necessary to push for nationwide gun control, permit me, a 30 year teacher of young adult males, to offer my reasons as to why this breakdown in our society is happening.

First of all, was Adam Lanza on any type of “mind altering” drugs in recent months or from his early childhood? Teachers of young males often encourage parents to put their young children on hyper activity medication just to make the classroom atmosphere easier to control. One of my students, a middle age mom, asked me if she should put her son on Ritalin? She was getting pressure from his school to do something about his...

Sadly yes I saw this coming. I’ve posted and posted and yet still there are scoffers.

People need to wake-up and shake off their blankets of normalcy bias, because American hasn’t seen what’s coming since 1861. I am beginning to think ‘Bama’ doesn’t see himself so much as Messiah, but as the ‘NEW’ Lincoln with a destiny to become as revered and embedded in America as Lincoln himself is.

Our only hope is to make sure our state governments stand-up for their rights and hold fast against the tide of oppression that is going to come out of Washington. right now they need something and someone to blame for the fact that they have totally ‘hosed’ everything and the ‘preppers’, evangelical Christians, gun owners and Tea Party activist will be among the first to get squeezed.

Bad info from very early on in the media’s poor reporting.

“Our only hope is to make sure our state governments stand-up for their rights and hold fast against the tide of oppression that is going to come out of Washington.”

I was thinking this morning that I'm glad I'm in Texas. Sure, we have Democrats in this state, but most people in the state are gun owners, it's our history. Democrats here hunt deer and feral hogs and they know their guns. They may be liberal in other areas, but I don't think Democrats here want guns taken away.

Plus, any governor we would have and there's an election in 2004, would fight the federal government when it comes to our guns. I would bet every gubernatorial candidate will use the gun issue to assure voters their guns would be safe with him/her.

Some of our colleges are in the process of approving concealed carry on campus.

I saw a notice sent by Gov. Perry in the past few days, to schools, asking them to review their safety measures and to be diligent.

Does any one have any idea if he killed the entire class or not? Did anybody in that classroom survive?

Did you hear about the CCW trainer (same one who had the video ad that said "If you are a muslim or a democrat, do not apply for a CCW") is now running an ad to give teachers weapons training at a discount?

“Does any one have any idea if he killed the entire class or not? Did anybody in that classroom survive?”

First, he killed the principal, the school psychologist and another woman and wounded another woman in the foot and leg.

Then, he went to the first room next to the front door and killed every child and the teacher.

Then, he went to the next room but the teacher had sealed the kids in a closet or bathroom. The teacher was still out in the open to protect those kids, keep him from getting to them, so he killed her. That's where he was when he heard the cops coming in and shot himself in the head with a hand gun.

That is the response I would expect from a Patriot who knows the score. Train teachers to kill these killers and save the children.

Well, the teachers and administrators at our school have brought parents in and insisted that they are add or adhad or some other label.

I know a parent of a gifted student that took her child to 5 different doctors to satisfy these people. The answer was the same every time. The child is not add or adhd.

Apparently the child was smart enough to train the teachers to react the way they wanted, and get their way, because they had labeled the student, decided that the child couldn’t help the way they acted. This behavior was not seen anywhere but at school. Not at home, not at Church, not at parties etc.

If a student needs extra help on class work, they claim they can’t help them unless they get some sort of label pinned to them.

When I was a teacher, we were told that we had to deal with individual differences, we didn’t have teacher’s aides, and we didn’t have to have labels in order to help a child who needed a little extra help understanding the lesson.

If a child misbehaved there were immediate consequences with out a lot of attention. Now the students get a 20 minute dissertation, maybe a note home, and a warning don’t do it again.

I’m reading Phillip Johnson’s book “Reason in the Balance” subtitled “The Case Against Naturalism in Science, Law & Education” and I highly recommend it. Very related to your comment.

In related news, we here have just learned our local school district here in FLA has instituted a “medium lock-down” for the rest of the term leading up to Christmas Break.

Whaddahell is a “medium lock-down”, you ask? Well, I asked that as well...

Seems that this condition institutes a heightened awareness patrol of the school campus; all faculty/staff are to be extra aware of persons entering or leaving the grounds; and though there is already a police deputy present on campus, there is as yet no indication of increased backup.

Naturally, when asked, these steps were taken “in light of the recent tragedy in Newtown, CT”...

We are responding by re-training and reinforcing our standing SOP for The Tribe. SOP for school-age Tribe members includes E/E off the campus to a pre-determined rally point for extraction back to The Bunker. Hopefully, this is just hysteria, and not the groundwork for something else...

And if he wasn't, then your rant is for nothing, isn't it?!

Did this young man have a positive man in his life? Almost certainly not.

You don't know that for sure. My dad lived 300 miles away but both he and my mom had a positive influence on my life when I was a child.

Was he on psychotropic drugs? Almost certainly yes.

Again, you don't know for sure so why not wait until ALL the facts come out before making your judgment on this kid......

If you want to give your inexperienced psychoanalysis on Lanza, then maybe you just might want to focus on the possibility that this kid's brain was hardwired to ultimate destruction.....

In elementary school, I freely admit I was a wise-ass attention-seeking motor-mouth...
Back then, they knew EXACTLY what to do to 'treat' my 'ailment', and it worked too! Till I needed another treatment (approx one per week)....
It sorta resembled this, except it was applied somewhat...south of my motor-mouth:

Or your own. My estimates are based on consistent experience with prior mass murdeerers. Your argumentative comments are without merit.

so, basically, “medum lockdown” basically means reminding teachers to keep their eyes peeled?

In Massachusetts, “the San Fransicko of the East”, the Democrat homosexuals have completely taken over the school system. A few years ago they even added “fisting” workshops to the curriculum.
