She was rich and white. Why should Obama honor her?

from what i’m observing the libs are blaming her for this. It was she who owned those weapons and failed to keep them out of the hands of her psychotic spawn

I wonder who really sends out the Twit’s tweets. Probably some low rent staff member from one of Barry’s unions.

She was stupid and her actions allowed her psycho son to have access to weapons that he used to kill her and 26 other people. You want him to honor her?

And she owned guns.

He was a genius, he would have obtained them another way.

At this point this mother is not looking all that great. You have a delusiional increasingly psychotic nut under your roof and you train him to shoot and have weapons around?

Not a good combo.

The details of this tragedy are constantly changing. So I don't really know the circumstances as to how the son got a hold of the guns. I'm not ready to vilify Mrs. Lanza yet.

So how do you know she “allowed” him to have access?

He was 20 years old and could gain access to whatever he wanted 1 way or the other short of being locked in a cell somewhere.

Nothing is going to take the memory of this loss from me. I will remember it for the rest of my life, and be terribly sorry it took place.

None the less, in my opinion nothing is gained at this point by continuing to focus on this event at the national level, and the more that takes place, it only serves to bolster the demand for more gun control, confiscation.

Obama is playing this for every ounce of energy he can get to infringe on our Second Amendment rights. I’m more than a little over that clown’s grand design. It’s time to stop feeding it.

Fox News Title:

“Moment of Silence & Bells Ring for Victims of Newtown School Shooting”

She was not at the school.

No offense, but her landscaper is the one that said she took him to the range - that doesn’t make it so or that she “trained” him.

Maybe she had the guns locked in a safe and this kid figured out the combination or how to open it - the shooter was considered a genius.

I do believe the genius bit is overblown. Classmates have referred to how hard his mother pushed him and how hard he worked to do well academically. Then, he was only a mediocre student at a fourth-tier college, albeit slightly under-aged.

The ones ‘signed’ -bo are supposedly from Obama himself.

Exactly. I can’t fathom how she could have thought it wise to involve him in focusing on guns for even a moment. And there is no way she should have had guns in her home, if she didn’t have them in a gun safe. She basically committed suicide and took 27 other lives with her.

Sorry if this sounds heartless, but the tweet is for political purposes, same as the “national moment of silence”. It is what it is.

In the end it doesn’t matter. He is the one who pulled the trigger and has the murders of all those people on his soul.

Let us remember Nancy Lanza.

She was a “prepper”, a “survivalist”, yes. She was a mother of a difficult child, who cared for her son.

She was not one that believed everything that our dear precious government has tried to tell her was true.

She believed in the ‘old ways’, ‘the ways before Obama’.
She believed that she knew what was best for her child, not the government.

If trouble came, she was preparing, to be able to fend for herself, and her son, and not, stand on the rooftop waving some flag for the FEMA helicopters to see. She believed in having extra food and resources, and the protection to keep what she has, which the DHS has deemed, as ‘possible terrorists’, these days.

She believed in ‘rugged individualism’, which in most urban areas, is considered anti-American, these days.

She should be remembered, yes.

And for those of us, who have not drank the Obama kool-aid, taken the Obama phone, and believe that America is worth returning to its glory, remember her with pride.
