To quote your words, you’re the “jack-ass.” Any apologist for Stalin knows he had daughters too. The tears were so fake, they could have at least run an onion under the Tyrant’s eyes first. I’ve never seen such a blase display of ho-hum, I’d rather be at the golf course.

I agree. Seems like we have an infestation of 0bamazombie trolls on FR today.

The Hartford Courant omitted the entire passage about gun control, and printed the rest...

What about the missing friends?

Per various news reports, Ryan and/or Adam/Andrew grew up with their mother in CT, but were living with the father in NJ.

[It is way too early to speculate on the social engineering and this family dynamic.]

It’s possible, if they’re only 4 years apart. Since the younger brother is 20, maybe he swiped older bro’s ID to get some liquid courage in him beforehand.

That’s what I was thinking — I could practically hear him thinking about his vacation (the way he was thinking about the anniversary during the first debate). He could care less — and you’re so right, it’s just more “white people.” His BFF Jamie Foxx was just “joking” (the way all the leftists speak the truth then claim they were “joking”) about it.

What? No ‘shout out’??

(My husband was on Ft. Hood, about a block away from the shooting when it happened. I was in the car, on the way to get the kids - unable to confirm whether my husband was living or dead - when I heard President A**hole’s remarks on the shooting. Yes. I’m still bitter.)

agreed, the amount of times even on here how many mothers and fathers state how their daughter is a liberal.

My kids , my wife and I sit down every night like they do in blood bloods.
My kids know what is what, they udnerstand respect, say sir and mam, thnak you and excuse me.

My kids have bene shotting at the range with me, they know damn well they have to work hard.
This is not about guns , how about today in China which had 22 kids stabbed, shall we ban knives in china?

No this is about parents which never spend time with their kids, I see this every day and nearly every day my kids bring their friends over and I talk to them and it;s sickening how many times they can;t say please, how they neevr see mother and father.

Course the media won;t talk about their failed social issues and their new age family or how they promote divorce and how a woman does not need a guy anymore

A few thoughts:

The parents and families of several hundred kids went through the worst possible hours of their lives, until they found out that their children were OK. The parents and families of the 18 ( I believe that's the current number ) of those innocent kids who were killed will experience that horror for the rest of their lives.

We will learn much more about the shooter's parents, especially the mom, that he killed. I suspect they'll turn out to be perfectly normal, decent people. It sounds awful to say, but they're probably better off dead. I don't know if I could live, knowing that a child of mine had done something so heinous.

The school should immediately be closed, and torn down. Build a new one on the grounds. Remember a similar incident at an Amish school some years back. That's what they did. The first responders and others at the scene..I don't know how they can deal with it. The images of the dead children will mark them forever. They are also victims, though they don't yet realize it. Their lives are also forever changed.

Yes.
Parents need to stop letting society or the community raise their kids.

It doesn’t “take a village”, it takes 2 good involved, loving parents.

When someone is dead or killed, people have a tendency to turn them into a saint.

I don’t know this mother, nor do I think she should have been murdered. But she has to share some blame in the kid being a sociopath.

Sounding more like it was this Adam kid, who his brother told some news outlet is ‘developmentally disabled’.

Wonder how that will fit into Obama’s gun grab? I hate to talk about that at a time like this, but that is all the media is talking about now. They have their marching orders from the ‘tearful’ president and every single one of them are running with it.

It’s difficult to know at this point exactly what is happening because I don’t think that the authorities know. I can only imagine the chaos at the site, and at the hospitals that are trying to treat the wounded.

Did Adam shoot his brother, then?

No. Brother Ryan is in custody. He was captured in the woods near the school.

However, a girlfriend (of Ryan's?) and her friend are missing.

But, there are reports of one, possibly two, bodies found at the mother's home.

The father, in NJ, was also found dead, per earlier reports.
