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.

It’s almost like they where running to the live feed with anything they thought might be true trying to get ahead of the other 24/7 new sources...

Na...

If i was the brother I’d be talking to lawyers about suing the hell out of the news channels that named him as the shooter.

Thank you. You cannot have an aversion to children and be a decent human being, let alone a conservative.

He had attempted his gun purchase before this altercation, so I think the altercation was not the beginning of what he was up to.

I don’t understand why the police don’t report more of what they know around this, given that the one suspect is dead.

We also have a lack of FATHERING today.. No discipline of kids. No teaching them RESPECT, honor, dignity or what COWARDICE is. Andy committed the most cowardly act known to man; The killing of children.. No fathers in the homes, or in the schools or in daycare. Boys raised in a 100% estrogen environment are going to be F'ed up in the head. There are exceptions but I bet this boy had no FATHERING in his life. THAT is the problem with boys today. The ones who do progress with no problems end up emasculated basket cases. BOYS NEED FATHERS OR FATHER FIGURES. Girls do too but girls are generally not predisposed to violence. "Cry for love".. Well, mock it if you wish but that is the problem here, and it's epidemic in the black community too.

DISCIPLINE/SELF-CONTROL is absolutely necessary in a boy's life with a MAN/FATHER as the role model and it must start at an EARLY age or it's counterproductive. Banning guns does NOT solve the problem of lack of self-control and violence of boys or adolescent males.

You do see the fact that we are screwed, and America is being fundamentally transformed. Just add that the Muslim Brotherhood is operating in the state department and throughout the ME, and Obamacare will declare guns a health risk and demand a $10k fee for each one as a condition of insurance. They will secretly see to it that few rebels get a chance to use them until it is too late.

We don’t have all the facts but it could be the opposite. The guy may not have been doing what the doctor recommended including taking prescribed meds.

Maybe the police had a report of the altercation and they didn't follow up on it.
Just one of many possibilities.

It’s lone wolf terrorism.....leading up to a Christian holiday. Islamic extremists have stated time and time again that there WILL BE attacks. People with non-arabic names who will attack defenseless sitting ducks.
These mentally ill men in their twenties hook up with extremists over the internet. It gives them a sense of belonging and an EXCUSE to act on their violent tendencies for “a cause”. They are caught hook, line and sinker by extremists who are great at manipulation and mind control.

IF investigators DID FIND evidence that these mentally ill lone wolves were in ANY WAY in contact with extremists, we would NEVER be told.

Look at all the lies about Bengazi....terrorism doesn’t fit the Democratic agenda. It would also cause mass panic if the public knew the truth and would make the Obama administration look worthless at protecting U.S. citizens.

I can see one attack happening before Christmas wouldn’t exactly mean terrorism, but TWO?

Give me a break!

Look at the Trolly Square shooter....the poor screwed up boy from the Balkans.....google “Lanza” and see what you find in the Balkans.

Every school at this point should have ARMED GUARDS.
Bus drivers need to carry guns.

After all that’s happened, it’s STUPID not to be ready for anything and armed citizens are the ONLY WAY to stop these attacks.....not unarmed, sitting ducks and gun free zones.

A few years back there was a documentary about young male elephants redistributed to an area without bulls around. They became angry and unmanageable until several huge bulls were brought in to be models of behavior.

Good point. Maybe the boy initially went to the school to see the school psychiatrist, referred by his mom and/or his doctor?

Your running under the assumption that there is only one involved in this.

The police however operate on the “till we are 100% sure it was one person we’re not talking” assumption.

I know nothing about this guy and his history. But what I explained about asperger’s yesterday here might help you make sense of the emotional differences. Kids with asperger’s are born with the ability to feel every emotion about themselves. They are each different from each other, but they feel love, pain, joy, hurt.

What they have problems with is empathy. They have a very very hard time putting themselves in the shoes of another. Within a loving family, they learn this, learn to understand others not by reading cues, osmosis, like we all did, by by repeated example and also by parents teaching them to understand others the way we teach kids the colors.

It would be very important to learn, maybe from the older brother, how this killer was treated. Kids with asperger’s engender a lot of negative emotions in their parents. Parents with such kids need a lot of loving support from their friends and community to help them raise good people, but often they are ripped to shreds by their fellows. “worst behaved kid ever” “ can’t you get him under control” etc for years and years.

Parents of kids like this need to know that while it is very difficult to raise their child, that with love even when he sounds hateful, this little one will grow to be a good, kind productive member of society. That is true; I’ve done it. But you must respond to the child’s unseen yet desperate need for love and not to his screaming tantrums where he yells the meanest things he can think of to say.

I am afraid that a lot of these freepers who castigate parents around here (”a few rounds with the belt should do it”) are capable, if blessed with a child with asperger’s, of raising him harshly right into one of these monsters. Please be more supportive of parents trying to raise kids with neurological problems. You can’t beat it out of them.

Sadly, I think psychotropic drugs are a common denominator.

Revenge, revenge....

Wasn’t “Revenge” the underlying theme of Obama’s campaign?

Thanks for sharing the information on asperger's. You have done the job the MSM can't or won't...

Makes a little more sense now, but could someone with this condition be used/manipulated to do something horrendous that a normal person couldn't be made to do?

Thanks,

The kid tried buying a gun a full week earlier.

That's another thing that doesn't make any sense but easily arranged before hand.

I have a huge tendency to defend those with Aspergers as my grandson is either Aspergers or "autistic' and he is far from any of these things talked about here. If anything, he is very passive. He is now graduating from college and about to embark a career in software engineering.

He has never even raised his voice that I am aware, he has never been a problem to his parents and as a matter of fact, my daughter jokes that he is far less trouble than is two "normal" sisters. She has said she wouldn't change a thing about him. Fortunately, I heard Dr. Baden on FOX say that Aspergers has nothing to do with this.

*** So why go back to the elementary school ?***

Good question. The only reported connection was that his mother worked there as a "Supply Teacher". So maybe someone gave mom a problem and he wanted to 'avenge her'. It certainly wasn't over money, she was well set financially.

NOTE: I have no ides of what a Supply Teacher is. Our youngest daughter is a Teacher(1) here in IL and I've never heard of that position at any school in the state.

(1) She has a BSEd from IL State Univ, is Certified to teach K-9 and ESL, and is a Conservative :-)
