EPTConnecticut school shooting - Page 9

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. | ||

[Updated at 1:51 p.m. ET] We have just learned that the suspected shooter is 20-years-old, a law enforcement source with knowledge of the investigation tells CNN’s Susan Candiotti. From CNN.com. Incredible that someone so close in age to me (I'm 22, and most of the people who seem to do these shootings are either teenagers in high school or grown, middle-aged men) really lands the idea of "it could happen anywhere" home. As if the pictures of crying children weren't enough. I'm seriously crying over here. | ||

Hard to say "serial killer" when a person goes on a murderous rampage. Serial killers tend to space out their acts of murder and follow a specific MO or theme. A mass murderer operates differently, killing indiscriminately and essentially shooting everything that moves until they're out of targets or out of room. It seems as if the shooter was more the suicidal mass murderer type. | ||

Not only are (27? 30?) kids dead but the rest of the kids are probably going to be incredibly scared about going to school from now on. | ||

Mass murderer- many victims, one location, duration of minutes or hours. Spree killer- many victims, multiple locations, duration of hours or days without a "cooling off" period Serial killer- many victims, multiple locations, duration of weeks, months or years | ||

I mean it's fine to set rules (though I do not agree with shutting down a relevant discussion like that but alas), but then be consistent in enforcing them. There's a whole thread for gun control debate separate from this one for that purpose | ||

As hard as it might be, getting the children to talk about it is the first step for them to accept what has happened. Not many people are cursed with having to witness such brutality at a young age. Being able to talk about what has happened is a step forward. | ||

They should just take their children home and be thankful they're not burying them. | ||
