    If it's him and it sounds like it, I'm surprised LE has shut it down.

    Per the NY Post,
    Ryan Lanza, the older brother, is being questioned by police but isn't a suspect.

    CNN just said that in addition to the two pistols, police found a .223 Bushmaster.

    It's about the person's mentality who shot the girl in Pakistan. A young school girl. The gunmen waited for her and then shot her with the intentions of murdering her. I'm sure if a person can shoot one child they can shoot children in masses.

    If the killer had no way to get guns to commit his mass murder, no mass murdeer would have been committed, and those kids would be alive and well now....

    Timothy McVeigh blows up Federal Building using fertilizer, killing 168 people and wounding over 800.

    Andrew Kehoe blows up Elementry School in Michigan, killing 45, and wounding at least 58.

    And today 22 children slashed by knife-wielding adult at elementary school in China

    What else is going to be horrible is that in the next couple of days, the media will likely be showing pictures of these little boys and girls that were so full of life..Some pictures may have them sitting on Santa's lap..

    Brace yourselves..

    No, he didn't just wake up this morning and decide to kill these kids. This had to have been a culmination of a long series of issues that this guy had. And someone had to see these signs. The speculation is that his mother was a teacher at this school, and she was killed. Speculation is also that the secondary crime scene is a residence where he killed his father. This kid had issues for a long time that were most likely ignored. It always turns out that there were warning signs, and those signs were ignored for whatever reason. It turned out that way in Columbine.

    And yet, guns seem to be the OVERWHELMNING choice to stop these loons who wish to commit mass killings - wither via their own hand, or from an external source.

    Anytime you wish to compare stats as to how a mass killing ends not by gun, let me know. Because I can't think of one mass killing that was stopped by someone without a gun. Inevitably, the presence of a gun is what ends the massacre. SO why delay the arrival of the "good guy" with a gun by limiting who, when, and where the good guys can carry one?

    You are not going to legislate against evil, it will always be here.

    But when you have the choice of cowering under a desk waiting for someone else to come save you, or having the ready means to defend yourself, anyone who chooses "wait, hide, and pray" is a moron.

    You're right. Currently they're interviewing kids. Disgusting.
