The irresponsible reporting by the media on the Sandy Hook massacre is deplorable. The media seems to have bent over backwards reporting myths as facts, most notably that Adam's mom worked at the school and that she loved those kids more than him so he got revenge. None of that is true. Or that there was an altercation at the school; That has yet to be proven and nothing more has been said about that.

If Adam's mother Nancy had plans to send him to a mental facility and he became enraged about that, why would he go to a school to massacre children? This makes no sense whatsoever.

I suppose the media will keep trying to throw motives for what he did at the wall until something sticks, but so far it appears the motive was to set the stage for a government-imposed gun ban or confiscation of our guns. If true, it appears this tragedy might be successful at doing just that.. Although unthinkable, the axiom "The ends justify the means" might well be in play here.

I suggest that the destruction of Adam's hard drive was done to protect the person or group which might have recruited Adam for this mission via electronic communication through his computer. Why else would he destroy his computer? It's not like he had a reputation to uphold.. He shattered that the moment he killed his own mother and innocent children so why was it imperative that he destroy his computer (if indeed it was him that did it)? Why the false motives and totally false information perpetrated by the media? To say Nancy was involved with the school when in fact she had no connection whatsoever is nothing short of pathetic journalism. The media seems to have a vested interest in fomenting anger against guns, behaving as a propaganda arm of the government to make gun bans a reality.

The media also hasn’t mentioned that the Bushmaster bought by Ms. Lanza is banned in CT and in NJ. If she took that to a range how come she got away with keeping a banned firearm? Someone should have seen it.

Well we can’t have accuracy and honesty, let alone facts get in the way of our hysteria driven agenda, now can we.

I am not famous or infamous, but every single time I have been in a simple local news story, or personally knowledgeable about a news story, the media has gotten at least one fact wrong. Every time.

After the initial dump of one or two days of completely wrong information, there has been very little coming out of CT on Lanza.

There is something going on but I suggest a cover-up more than a conspiracy. A cover-up that might hurt gun control efforts.

I remember that day. Where I work we have several TVs through the building all on different news channels. Depending on where you were in the building, people had totally different information on what was happening. Were there 2 shooters or 1, was an accomplice in the woods scoping out the school, his mom was a teacher at the school….goes on and on. Our media is terrible.

Has anyone seen any additional information about the reported alleged disagreement that Lanza had with 4 male Sandy Hook school employees the day prior to the shooting? Was that information accurate? Supposedly he killed 3 of those employees, but one was not at the school on the day of the shooting. He, obviously, would know what what went on and could shed light on why this may have happened.

actually there was a girl shot (but survived) after she said she believed in God at Columbine.

It wasn’t the two protestant girls who were claimed by many to have said it, though, but another girl, a Catholic, in a different location who was praying and the shooters taunted her if she believed in God and she said she did, so they shot her with a shotgun...

Since she was in ICU when the story came out, no one identified her as the girl...and she verified the story when she recovered, but didn’t go around bragging about it...and by the time her story came out, the press was busy trying to debunk the first story and ridicule Christians they didn’t bother to print the real story. The press also didn’t print that the videos of the killers stated they hated Christians and even named one of the girls who they later shot, because she was Christian.

The mind of the msm:

a handgun, rifle, prop rifle or an umbrella = fully automatic assault weapon
a fishing vest = bullet proof armor
black shirt or jacket = far right winged conservative gang colors
two or more guns = an arsenal
a registered gun owner = scary survivalist
a prepper = a selfish hoarder
a gun shop = more dangerous to children on their way to school than a porn shop

When these seemingly unexplainable mass murders happen I sometimes wonder what the current state of the art is in “programming” someone to commit a horrendous act like this. Can it be done? Does anyone out there have any knowledge on this subject?
