Good gravy, even this much detail takes 24 hours to get out?

If they got into an altercation with Lanza last Thursday, you have to wonder why the teachers did not call the police. If they did, the ensuing police intervention might have saved a lot of lives. It is easy to Monday morning quarterback!

We mustn´t endanger the rights of the criminally crazy.

"Another victim has been named as six-year-old Jesse Lewis. His father Neil Heslin told the New York Post that he dropped his son off at school that morning and planned to return in the afternoon to join parents in the holiday tradition of making gingerbread houses."

This precious little boy looked so happy in the photo. I just saw clips of his grieving father from yesterday on FOX News. My heart is terribly heavy today.

A press conference just took place. The coroner just said that most of the victims were shot twice.

All schools are surrounded with windows. Even if they had had a reinforced door that he could not have broken down all you have to do is shoot out a window. Or even stand outside the classroom and shoot through the windows. If a school is to be reinforced so no one could ever possibly breech it´s security it would have to be run like a prison. I have to assume that all people who do something this hideous has some type of mental condition. I feel that Chicago thugs shooting each other on street corners is much different than this kind of murder. We threw open the doors of mental institutions in the 60´s and 70´s and pretty much have left these people to fend for themselves. While medication has allowed millions to lead normal productive lives it is not the answer for all. Some people need to be in locked facilities to protect themselves and others. I don´t know who draws up the guidelines or how they are enforced or who pays for them but something needs to be done.

Okay, show a current picture.

Article says mom taught him how to use the firearms. Sounds like mom was in serious denial about her son´s temperament.

This is crazier by the minute. They´re saying he shot out a window to get in but the day before he casually walks in and argues with 4 people and they don´t call the cops.So that means the kid got buzzed through at the front door. Why wouldn´t the accosted people tell the person at the front desk not to allow him in anymore?

There´s someting coming unglued in white America and i think it´s the poison of liberalism creeping in.We keep hearing about young suburban kids getting easy access to black tar heroin and of course pot is readily available now after the big left declared it a safe drug.

Then you have to look at the degrading career opportunities in Obama´s anti capitalism movement and the war on job creators.Kids are becoming disillusioned about their future so what the hell,go shoot up a theater or school.

What is a mystery to me is why that mother had assault weapons in the house, in the first place, and worse, not under lock and key.. A hand gun for protection I can see, but not the arsenal she had. And knowing her son had serious issues and had been in trouble many times, it seems to me she is culpable as well, and she sure paid the ultimate price for her stupidity/malfeasance.

Why would the reason that someone has guns be a mystery?

This woman had a right to own guns, but she had extremely poor judgment to allow her mentally-challenged son to have access to them. As someone pointed out here yesterday, responsible gun owners don´t allow two-year-olds to play with them and they don´t put them in the hands of Alzheimers patients. It´s extremely irresponsible to allow mentally ill/mentally disabled people to get them as well.

Adam reported 20 years old. So what has he been doing last couple of years?

It´s possible he held a knife to her throat, forced her to open the gun case, and then shot her. Let´s wait and see what the facts are.

I´m suspicious marijuana played a factor - it certainly has in the last five or six spray shootings. I will wait for the reports, of course. But I´d be willing to put money on it that it did.

Once upon a time in America, the criminally leaning mentally ill could be institutionalized. It was in their best interest and society at large. I know everyone has rights, but there are some people that just can´t function. They need 24/7 supervision. When the time comes and they prove a "danger to themselves or others", it usually is too late. And try to understand the perverse world mentally ill people live in. Reality is unknown to them. They have mental pain and anguish we can´t begin to empathize with.

Seems like it was personal; Not knowing what the argument was... it could have been an employment interview that went bad. The MSM should be able to get ahold of a more recent photo from his facebook page...

But then again.. Instead of using Treyvon Martins gang banger photos on his facebook, they used a 10 year old pic of him.

I think #13 hit a nerve in #15. It probably more likely the ALCOHOL right #15.

Maybe he was using bath salts.

I must have missed the part where Mom let her son have unauthorized access to guns. One certainly does NOT allow young children, untrained adults or otherwise unstable people access to guns. EVER. At least not around me if I´m expected to stay around.

The real culprit is the US Dept of Education who requires these people to be integrated into classrooms. How did that work out?

Absolutely heartbreaking, tears bring no relief from this. Children so young they still had baby teeth slaughtered in a mutilating way by a maniac whose incompetent parents couldn´t/wouldn´t control. I cannot get my mind around this.

Yesterday a blonde girl of about 6 ran in front of my cart at the supermarket; tears just started steaming down my face. Cannot imagine how the families of these kids will get through this.
