Sin.
Teaching people to be defenseless is the problem.
Schools are ground zero for that phenomena.
Schools have also removed God.
you know... if I was a demented sicko that wanted to go out in a blaze of glory...
I think I would take out people that had pissed me off, not a bunch of kids that never did nothing to anyone, much less me.
Re: legal embargoes, if the press is 100% in the tank for progressives/Democrats/Communists and essentially a mouthpiece for any Dem administration, is it REALLY “free” ??? Those murdering bastards should receive MINIMAL coverage, if that!
Just out of curiosity, why did Lanza stop at 27? Did he run out of victims? Ammo?
IIRC, the cops finally, after 20 minutes, arrived on the scene.
Time?
“Sin.”
Ditto, but I was going to say “Festering Anger”.
In addition to the above, I think I read somewhere that he was viewed in the vicinity of the high school that morning, but drove off when there was police activity near it.
He went for the softest target.
The local police have stated repeatedly that the rumor he was seen at the HS has no foundation in fact.
My impression is that evidence from the shooter’s home indicates the elementary school was the original and intended target.
I saw the title and figured it was about obama.
The only time I have seen media types actually back off from using these mass killings to further their agenda is when they are confronted with the credible accusation that they are much more of the cause than guns are.
This needs to be repeated over and over. The MSM cause these shootings. Their actions are shouting Fire! in a crowded school.
The 20 minute response time is a media created myth. The actual response time was about 6-7 minutes.
Thanks for the update. I have not (obviously!) been following the story closely, so had missed that vital detail!
I appreciate having the correct information.
I totally agree. This is from “Dear Mr. Security Agent.”

5. If it bleeds, it leads: The media love maniacs.
The same media that pointedly ignore frequent life-saving defensive uses of firearms consistently pours hours and days and weeks of attention upon the latest maniac who chooses a firearm as his tool of mass murder, so that the next potential insane villain cannot fail to notice the easy path to fame and immortality that the misuse of a gun can bring. But the greatest fame will only attach if they can beat the previous body-count record, a number constantly and loudly broadcast, so that no one can fail to hear it.
The message to the unstable is clear: Come on, you crazy guys, can’t you at least murder your way to thirty? The Virginia Polytechnic Institute madman is still leading the lone-wolf pack, but college students might resist, so maybe find an easier target to rack up higher numbers. Find a killing zone with younger and more helpless victims. The media’s lesson was clear, and it was well learned by Adam Lanza when he set out to slaughter helpless little lambs instead of bigger and tougher sheep.
The mainstream media pour a Niagara of crocodile tears over the most recent child victims, after doing everything for the killer but sign his name to their pre-written script. With such fanfare, is it any wonder that there is no lack of new monsters playing “beat the kill record” on a regular basis? It’s almost become a recurring television reality show.
I definitely read that here on FR, and that there was security cam video from the H.S. that showed this.
I really want to see this video. If it exists, we really need to hammer this point to help get rid of the idiocy of gun-free victim zones.
We simply need to keep on fighting. I believe the media are sensitive to this charge, if we can get it out. When confronted directly with it, they flinch.
Thanks for the comment. I also remember a similar time frame being reported as well. That was less than 10 minutes, maybe 8 give or take. Whatever time it was, Lanza committed suicide shortly after the cops arrived.
