I just checked on what Connecticut law says about firearms. Now, I don't agree with the law particularly. But I did find this:
CHAPTER 943 OFFENSES AGAINST PUBLIC PEACE AND SAFETY
Sec. 53-202a. Assault weapons: Definition.
(1) Any selective-fire firearm capable of fully automatic, semiautomatic or burst fire at the option of the user or any of the following specified semiautomatic firearms: Algimec Agmi; Armalite AR-180; Australian Automatic Arms SAP Pistol; Auto-Ordnance Thompson type; Avtomat Kalashnikov AK-47 type; Barrett Light-Fifty model 82A1; Beretta AR-70; Bushmaster Auto Rifle and Auto Pistol; Calico models M-900, M-950 and 100-P; Chartered Industries of Singapore SR-88; Colt AR-15 and Sporter; ...
Sec. 53-202b. Sale or transfer of assault weapon prohibited. Class C felony.
(a)(1) Any person who, within this state, distributes, transports or imports into the state, keeps for sale, or offers or exposes for sale, or who gives any assault weapon, except as provided by sections 29-37j and 53-202a to 53-202k, inclusive, and subsection (h) of section 53a-46a, shall be guilty of a class C felony and shall be sentenced to a term of imprisonment of which two years may not be suspended or reduced.
========================================================
Am I reading this wrong? If it was already banned, why is this fact not being discussed by the media?
No problem, no offense taken.
Emotions are on overload for everybody.
My only two questions are “Are we getting the truth?”
The next obvious question is “If not, why not?”
The only answer to the second question is somebody is covering something up.
How about the conflicting reports on how he got inside the school? First, we hear that someone buzzed the shooter in. Later, the story is that he broke in.
Although the latter is more likely, I can see the story being massaged to prevent the school from seeming extremely negligent.
At the very least, the cops there did a lousy job of staying in control of the information flow.
The information behind the following might be interesting, if you haven’t already seen it.

Meant to say tyrants.
