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
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=313472

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

Or is it just possible that more than 1 person could have the same name? There are 300 million of you guys


The twitter is him, no doubt. His twitter history speaks for itself.

Edit: Unless he and friends were hacked...what an insane coincidence... a different Ryan Lanza making Tweets about suicide and tweeting 2 weeks before the inicident how he would love if the world would end in 2 weeks...

I am sorry

So many pictures and twitter/facebook links going around..

Would be insanely stupid if ABC, Reuters, CBS and whatnot would release a name of a shooter, who in fact wasn't.


Which is why you shouldn't go internet detectiving up people's facebooks and twitter accounts.


If you're someone working for the media who has no idea about anything (other than how to maximize profit from this kind of stories, of course) then yes, "internet detectiving" is a terrible, terrible idea.

They went crazy back in 1996 and basically ruined Richard Jewell's life. The media aren't always as careful as they should be.

Wait what happened? The media put this guy's picture up and said he was the killer or something? or was the killer not Ryan Lanza at all?

I was pretty sure that facebook account wasn't the shooter when I looked at it lol... Anyway, if the media got the name wrong, what a major fuck up. There would need to be some serious punishments and reforms dished out for that.

Sounds like the picture is from someone else's facebook, while the twitter is legit? Perhaps the real Ryan Lanza didn't look enough like a maniac?

If it's true what the psychologists say that giving attention to these events only encourages them, then shouldn't this thread also be closed? Are we being part of the problem right now?

Remove the twitter link. Otherwise you are going to get warned.

It is him, no doubt. City is correct, age, and his twitter history speaks for itself.

This post is TL in a nutshell.

God damn the mob mentality; what part of "the shooter killed himself" do people not understand?! This is horrific enough, leave this kid ALONE!!

Are they really plastering this guy's face all over the news when it wasn't really him? We need more info..

Reading Swedish tabolids right now and his name, age and picture is posted on the front page with a nice big fat font. Fucking unbelievable.
