The gun control argument stops now. I know it's fun to argue about it in the heat of the tragedy when you can get all worked up about it but it's pretty disrespectful and if you don't care enough about the issue to make a separate topic for gun control then you don't care enough to shit on the tragedy by exploiting it.
A gun control topic can be found here

Also stop posting links to his facebook. TL will be no part of an unconfirmed witch hunt.

So first fired shots in Principals office then went to his mother's classroom and started shooting killing her and students.

I wonder why target his own mother and everyone else inside.

You wouldn't think a person would kill a bunch of kids if the only intended target was his mother.

And this is a surprised? As I said earlier, that's the person the general public will care about and, frankly, it's natural.


And one can argue it is this specific result that leads them to commit the act in the first place. "Glory" and all that crap.

To be fair, human society is more peaceful now than at pretty much any other time in history. It's not like things are really getting worse. It's just that now whenever anything happens anywhere we hear about it.


We might be more peaceful on the outside but I don't think we were ever as insane as we are now. Of course that's just the impression I've always had so take it as what it is.

First the mother was dead at home, then at the school?

Now reports the mother was one of the teachers.

So he is 24, does he really have a child in elementary school? Or was that a false report?

It's not worth following the play-by-play.

News outlets are going to be clawing over each other to post "facts" that are completely unsubtantiated simply to say they were first to do so.

Exactly.

According to ABC, shooter might've killed others around the area/somewhere else? Did i hear right?

Usually I react pretty calm to such news but the fact that this happened at an elementary schoold makes me physically sick.
I can't imagine how the children and their families must feel.

Maybe its because humans suppress a lot now a days and others are placed on drugs that fuck with brain chemistry.

Maybe something like "I gonna get rid of you, and everybody who you love more than me". It's crazy but it's possible.

Attention makes things seem worse than they are. We only seem to get the bad news.

Real political add for Sen. Andrew Lanza from NY. A bit of an unfortunate coincidence.


what was the point of this post?


I think he saw all the retarded posts in this thread and thought, "I can do better."

How sad

What could possibly drive a man to do this?

A number of different reasons... including the need for attention.

T_T this is horrible. Reminds me of the Olso bombings. Hearts go out to all the families and friends that lost a loved one. These kind of event are happening way to often nowdays, waaay too often.
