“Last time we visited with her in person we talked about prepping and you know, are you ready for what can happen down the line when the economy collapses,” said the gunman’s aunt, Marsha Lanza.

Nancy’s guns were supposed to be for self defense. Marsha Lanza called her nephew a special needs child. So far, no motive has been released.
“Just pray for peace,” said Marsha Lanza. “Do I think gun laws need to be changed? No. It’s the person that does the killing, not the gun."
I think as tension of a major collapse intensifies, we’ll see more acts like these and an Oregon, people snapping over the pressure.
Rather than trying to fix the problems that are heading us over a true fiscal cliff (not the created, propagandized one the state-run media is currently using to divert attention from the true issues), the left will use these incidents to further restrict our civil liberties, which intelligent people are using to better prepare for the possible collapse.
Gun Control is never the answer.
We need to stop giving Ethnic Group/Protected Class status to the mentally ill.
We are so ingrained today to make excuses for the mentally ill...not make them responsible for their actions. I guarantee you that doing this....more will get, and retain, treatment, and will stop these incidents.
Great. She’s a paranoid prepper.
Bingo! This unfortunately is exactly what these weak and insincere politicians will do....rather than change their tax & spend philosophy that got us in this mess, they will use every opportunity to take away our rights and put more power in their hands!
You must have read a different article...than the one posted...
...cause it's real hard to glean that info from the article...
What did Adam Lanza ever do to warrant his commitment prior to shooting his mother? What criteria would you use?
New gun laws make people feel good about doing absolutely nothing about crime.
I’m wondering if the mother’s possible “prepping” is what the police were referring to when they said they collected good evidence in the house.
A million or more dangerous schizophrenics are walking around free today, kept safe with modern meds.
Cut of their meds abruptly, add fear, stress and hunger, and they will be “acting out” in terrible ways.
“Great. She’s a paranoid prepper.

No, that’s exactly what the reporter was trying bringing out. Check out this back and forth from the article:
” “Last time we visited with her in person we talked about prepping and you know, are you ready for what can happen down the line when the economy collapses,” said the gunman’s aunt, Marsha Lanza.
The reporter asked, “Survivalist kind of thing?”
“Yea,” said Marsha Lanza.”
Now the mother was one of those “survivalists”!!! Get ready. Update your list for Santa, pronto. Just sayin’.
That house was $539,000 on Friday, $700,000 yesterday and it's a million if it's a dime in suburban NYC. That place would be pushing $750,000 here in cheap real estate land, NC.
She was not the most practically minded prepper in the world if indeed she was. I think they're still trying to find their winger to pin a mass killing upon. It's not as if that hasn't been the attempted story with every one of these, for years.
Yep. That's the attempted narrative here.
I guess it was the use of the "paranoid" that set my teeth on edge a bit...feeding into the MSM narrative...
Buying a few guns while living in a high end house is not a "paranoid" prepper...
Building a subterranean shelter on your property with enough goods with massive firepower for twenty years is paranoid...
