Report: Connecticut Shooting Was Revenge Killing
Breitbart ^

Posted on 12/16/2012 10:12:03 AM PST by chessplayer

Chief Connecticut Medical Examiner H. Wayne Carver has released the names of those killed by 20-year-old Adam Lanza on December 14. Besides proving anew that the lives of far too many innocent people were taken by a cold blooded criminal, the report suggests that the killings were carried out in an act of revenge.

According to the report, Lanza shot the 20 child victims -- eight boys and 12 girls -- at close range and shot each victim between three and eleven times.

Other reports indicate that Lanza "visited Sandy Hook Elementary the day before [the shooting] and was involved in an altercation with four members of the staff of the school." Three of those four are now dead.

Was he romantically interested in one of the teachers and rejected in that process? So, he not only kills her, but all of her students as well. Islam would say that since he killed Americans, he should get his 72 virgins in “heaven”. Haven’t heard the Muslims living her condemning these kills nor the media pointing out they haven’t said a word. Interesting.

So, have we learned yet why he was at the school the day before?

Original report was that he had a kid at the school, but that might have been eroneous, just like the name was wrong and the story of the mother being at school was wrong.

But there must have been some reason he was at the school arguing with the principle and other teachers.

Did he have a kid at the school?

Yea, we're being spooned this revenge/rage story but provided no details of the altercation or an explanation of why someone who supposedly was incapable of feeling pain or emotion would seek revenge.

Whereas, there are numerous reports consistent with his inability to express emotion.

I want to know why the left trusts public school teachers to be around our kids all day, to teach them all their life lessons, and praises them for their hard work and dedication, but then won’t trust them with a gun?

Why would a trained school teacher be less trustworthy with a gun than a police officer?

It’s not like we are asking them to arrest people, we just feel bad that the poor teacher who is a hero has to put their body in front of a shooter and get killed, rather than having the choice of pulling a gun out and defending herself.

Maybe the elementary school was closer to his home. Another factor perhaps: far less adult male presence in an elementary school than a high school.

“visited Sandy Hook Elementary the day before [the shooting] and was involved in an altercation with four members of the staff “

Did the school call the cops? Report the incident? Seems like an automatic thing to do.

The left prefers dead martyrs to live heroes.

I wish she’d had the choice to be the latter, instead.

The buzz I’m kind of hearing goes like this:

The gov is broke, the creditors are demanding payment.
One of the greatest “sources” of capital is the collected 401(k)s of the people.

Gov is planning to basically seize the 401(k)s and turn it over to the bankers and replace it with something like a coupon system, in a sense like SS.

BUT!!!

There is this little gun problem thingie...

“Quick, before the actual facts become known, let’s take away everybody’s guns.”

Exactly. The MSM can focus the attention of the Low Information Voter on a tragedy long enough for enemy politicians to take action before anything resembling objective truth can spoil things.

Gunman had "altercation" with school staff day before massacre

The questions I have:
1. How big of an altercation?
2. If it was with 4 people, sounds substantial enough for a red flag and the police to be notified.
3. Did it require 4 people to come together in order to force him to leave the school the day before?
4. Were the police notified and did they follow up?
5. If the police were not notified, why not?

Also the police chief said the school was a very secure school.
The insane bastard supposedly shot through the door and shattered the glass in order to get in.
Probably regular shatter proof glass, not even ballistic glass and no metal bars.
This was not secure, just the illusion of security.
An electrical lock on a regular glass door to be *Buzzed* in, that in reality was their only security.
Apparently mostly women in the school with no means to defend themselves or the children, again, how was this security.

Everybody is running around talking about guns and insanity, but nobody is really looking at how really insecure the school was and perhaps a breakdown in procedure the day before.

I’m with you! My gosh, we’ve had reports ranging from he had a child in the school, his mom worked there, he killed her at the school, he killed his dad etc etc.

It does ONE thing, imho, brings this poor sad vile soul front and center - what do ALL these senseless shootings have in common other than we all know the name of the sick and twisted, but other than Gabby Giffords, can’t name the victims!

Our sad excuse for a media is on some mind altering ego trip.

Exactly, I don’t buy this story.

The kid tried buying a gun a full week earlier.

But he had an altercation at the Elementary school two days before he shot up the place. Why was he there for the altercation ? Was he seeing the school psychologist about current or past issues ? Why would he not go to the High School he used to be attending ? Almost as if he was acting on some past experience.

Good question. News articles haven’t addressed yet WHY he went the day before. It’s a K-4 school.

I pray that I am just freaking out and I don’t understand what I see. I pray I am an alarmist... and even a kook!

Being a nit would be easier to live with, actually.

I just don’t think it is as sweet an innocent as paying back our debtors.

This is the fundamental change, in our rights and freedoms, that people voted for.

It appears to me that we are screwed and they have the federal government, control over business and commerce- media, education, local government (agenda 21 and Common Core Standards) , the world byway of the UN, control of technology and banking- and the all of the toys of the US military.

I am trying to figure out if they really care that some have guns.

These are strange days. I don’t see any push back on them.

Another FReeper pointed out to me that Lanza tried to buy a rifle before the altercation at the school. If I understand the sequence it goes like this:

1. Lanza tried to buy a gun before the altercation at the school, but he failed to get one.
2. He went to the school and had an altercation.
3. He returned to the school and carried out the murders.

Not just 401k’s that they are after. Also coming for gold. A Texas Cash for Gold store owner was just shot and killed by police. Apparently there was suspicion that they had failed to report some gold purchases. So instead of properly investigating the facility, the police entered unannounced with guns drawn. A little out of control for a paper work problem.

I’m wondering if the report you linked is true, that two of the mass-shooter types parents were connected to Libor.

The reason I really wonder is because what if you add in the kids who were murdered by the nanny, the kids who were the children of the reporter (or bureau chief) of the news outfit that was going to report on the scandal.

I know the banks and financial institutions are powerful, but I never gave much credence to the whole New World Order tin-foil stuff.

Maybe it’s time.
